the elephant in the room

 The elephant in the room laments
and memory falls on common sense
whilst on the window ledge she sits
thinking back to when she'd flirt and flit
 
always present - always there
she senses tension in the air
and one diverts from glaring eyes
a memory lost - a false design
 
unease amounts to what may be
a stream, a creek, that runs to sea
a sunrise abandoned – nay – refined
normality redefined
 
then full moon comes in midst of frost
lending thoughts of what she lost
a sparrow's voice heard far away
in dark of night - in light of day
 
brings blessings stored in heart’s desire
yet to falter- yet to tire -
so lay your thoughts and dream what may
be in one’s heart come night or day
 
and in the end the sun will sing
love will defeat most anything.
