Sun barely risen
Cooling breeze moving wind chimes
This day of calmness

In silence I sit
With the stillest air I’ve known
Echoes of nightfall

Sea’s ungentle care
Focused malice against them.
Drifting Argonauts

Where else shall I live?

August 10, 2015 Carl Setzer

Where else shall I live?
This close to the mountains and sea
Near urban delights.

Ferry drifts westward
Sun warmed winds, which still chill me
Eagles’ wings lifting

Awoke to grey skies
Gently blending blues and greys
Visions of my home

May 2, 2015 Carl Setzer

Though just barely May
Flip-flops emerge from closets
Braving biting chill

Happy Halloween Everyone

October 31, 2014 Carl Setzer

After darkness fun
Costumed ghouls, goblins and such,
Roam seeking candy.
