It's Raining, Again

Big surprise. A few days of glorious sun, then the rain. It feels bipolar. Hmmm, there must be a poem in that. Here's today's:

beacons

beacons from a grand opening
send lights across the winter sky
he asks me what they are

I’m pretending they’re angels
I tell him; and say I’ll write a poem
he thinks they’re spirits
but we both agree it’s pretty

my nine-year-old and me
flying through the night sky
guided by spirits or angels
it doesn’t matter which
we smile, happy
