A Poem: Wild Goose Chase

Dogged in the pursuit of peace,

the windows slam shut. Sounds 

of leaf blowers, lawn mowers

are muffled if not erased by her

chosen confinement. 

The phone is on "Rest." No dings, 

no music suddenly interrupting

time needed to regroup. To

rethink what has sent her on

a wild goose chase at finding

happiness this late in life.
