ADVENTURE

by Siale K.

my children asleep as their toys
 start playing back and forth
                 tink tunk tunk tink
coming to life twinkling about
                sitting in a room beating
to make sweet music like movies
 with no words needed –
               Autumn in a daze of
overwhelming looking for something
  or someone
                         Adventure! Longing
       For it – need not:
Look to the skies putting one in thought
            Adrift, expanse awaiting
       Trying to figure it out
away on a cloud
           peace at no end
    suddenly sadness from
       an angel playing a
   harp …. to warmth, creativity,
         calming,
                        consuming me.
