Each day

by Carissa Dewey

Traffic outside my
window somehow louder today.
As I rest these thoughts,
these feelings.
Melt into this noise.
This moments strong longing
very true
very present.
And outlined with a certain
uncertainty -
To which do I claim?

My thoughts cross this
street, wander
into a field-
a farm.
Void, in this cold.
a sudden feeling- rises
and it's doubt,
of this field underneath me,
of the lulls in the wind,
this high rock wall
dirt, ice
bareness.

So obviously present
and so very true.

Into each life a little "doubt" must fall. That is what stops us up short, like a leash on a running dog brings it to quick stop and leaves it wundering what happened and what should it do now. Nice write lady.
