April is #NationalPoetryMonth. Here is one is the poems from my new book, “embracing now.”

there’s a light in the crack of the curtain, resembling an eye glancing
through the dark,
reminding me of a tiny moon
shaped as a circle.
not sure of the glare
but i stare,
knowing it is there
for my final view of the night,
my final view of the night.
there’s a noise in the air from the bypass, resembling percussion louder
than preferred,
reminding me the drivers travel
deep into the dark.
not sure of the source,
but i hear
knowing it is there
for my final sounds of the night,
my final sounds of the night.
there’s a thought in the measure of my mind,
resembling a song continuing
its rhythm,
reminding me of my dialogue
with the Divine.
not sure of how answers specifically arrive,
but believing He is listening
to my final prayers of the night,
my final prayers of the night.
