Drizzle

Long detested by most,

The drizzle comes down

Upon the once sun soaked

Town amidst Spring Cleaning.

To me a baptism, to drench

Summer into submission,

The perfect waiting game,

As Summer can push and prod

Impatient and imperious

To make frost heaved asphalt

Sizzle and deflate, shimmer

And expel Winter treasure.

The feathered rain remains

Spring’s single defense

Against her fast-paced sibling

Dousing the region in dampness

One half expects a billow of steam

To blanket and clog terrain

Instead clouds collect cotton

Tempered trails of mist

And the cool cloth of condensation

Insists that we revitalize Winter

For one last day.

Untitled (Love Yourself)

I hear sweet lullabies in your laugh

even when you find it too rough, too loud.

I still believe your eyes shine brighter than the sun

even when you're on the verge of breaking down.

I still know that flowers grow from your skin

and that life exists from within

even when you pick them out like they're a sin.

I still see summer in your smile

and hear spring in your sigh

even when you think it's dead season in your life.

I still love you for you

even when you don't love yourself too.

Wedding

All this wedding planning has been taking

a huge toll on my writing endeavors.

My untouched document stares at me

from its all but forgotten tab as I shift through

cakes, flowers, and dresses in tangled masses.

I hope I can find the time to return to its

blank, blinking boredom before

the big day in October
