Walterrean Salley Poems

Lethargic day.
Long and winding.
Difficult to navigate.
Much to do- not much done.
...

Very active brain waves.
Faint music in the near distance.
Downed routine meds.
Mental images of thoughtful visits.
...

The only way to
Fully embrace today
Is to let go of yesterday.
One cannot look back,
...

Like an old blanket,
Fold up last year
And put it on the shelf of time.
Box all of its contents,
...

Flowers, a thing of beauty,
suffer much to make us happy.
Facing the knife to bring joy
And comfort in our sorrow
...

There in the stillness of the night
A beauty one could never know:
The charming moon embraced the sea
The moonbeans setting it aglow.
...

Who am I? Why am I here?
What am I suppose to be?
Have I claimed my place in life?
The spot that’s reserved for me?
...
