“Beers & Burdens”   11 – 25 – 02

Joshua Abt-Barnett    postpoems.com/members/lillep



The wind blows

The chime rings

I hear a howl

As the full moon beams



I sit here now

In my chair

Enjoying the beer

And the night air



I reflect on the day

All the havoc and dismay

Was there ever a way

To avoid that day in May



I take another sip

As I drift in thought

I am taken on a trip

Thinking of moments...



with you.



I awake to an early dawn

Another chance

Probably none

As I pick up the pieces

The sun shines

Its rays pierce

A glimpse of hope

A fresh start

Maybe this day

Will warm my heart

I may find

The courage to say

I did love you

Even that day in May...
