No matter the results of this year with the virus, the elections, the protests, the violence; we need to post our views, build bonds and repair the damage 2020 has given us.

Blues
Soft hues
Shore’s sharp edge
Clouds gathering
Black and lonely sand stretches out for light

Two Old Birds
Watching a pair of mourning doves, “He’s an odd one, Mr. Marley, those feathers so dirty and beaten. I suppose even his wife is repulsed at times, but she stays. I guess that’s the way of birds.”
The two elderly bird watchers continued down the path, once in a while nudging each other to raise their binoculars. Time weighed heavily on the two gentlemen, but enjoying a trip outdoors was always a treat. Neither man liked sitting at home conversing with their wives and a walk in the meadow was a relief.
Spotting the raven picking at carrion on the path was not such a beautiful sight, but Mr. Marley seconded his companion’s thoughts, “that’s the way of birds”.

Vote
I can’t be emphatic enough, when I ask you to vote. Vote whether you agree with me or not, but please do not take your right to vote for granted. People have died for your rights, and still are to this day. It’s more than a right, it’s an obligation.
Don’t let the stupidity and ignorance of others’ actions going on now, including our government leader, drain you to the point of apathy.

But I can’t ride one of those!
Sure you can, just hop on so we can get outta here!
I think it’s buckled to the post.
Here, use these! (Harry retrieved a pair of bolt cutters from his bag. He had already used them on the store door chain. Sirens heard in the distance.)
(Jesse cut off the bike lock and Harry jumped on the back of the scooter. Harry motioned for him to get in front of him.)
So I’m supposed to drive?
(Sirens heard getting closer.)
Yes, you idiot!
(Sirens closed in.)
Never mind, just get down on the ground and hope they’re real cops.

Sunny hues are gone
Midnight darkness is now shown
Even flowers dream.

Colleen’s Weekly Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge
To write or not to
Is writing really a choice
Enlightenment beams
Determined with skillful muse
Decidedly, there’s no choice.

Politics
Unless of course those who commit crimes are himself or his cronies. . .😎 You may not be omnilegent when it comes to politics–I don’t think anyone can be, there is too much bombarding us every day. But if you are uncertain in your choice for voting, there are plenty of solid reliable facts out there to read. At least try!

Autumn Leaves
***
Always decidedly, almost regretfully
Autumn leaves drift towards their end
A summer’s life well spent
Enjoyed by every passerby
The destiny from the new green fold
To the now fully opened beauty that suns fade
Their brief time of splendor is over
And they softly land into fall’s hands.
