When I hear Iz Sing

Carl Setzer

Every time

I hear Iz sing

“Over The Rainbow”

I’m filled

With delight

And quiet

Sadness

Kindness spoken 

Carl Setzer

This Morning 

Carl Setzer

A plane overhead 

<

p style=”font-family:"font-size:21.6px;”>       My tea slowly cools 

<

p style=”font-family:"font-size:21.6px;”>Today, a funeral 

Another week ends 

Carl Setzer

Another week ends 

Silence folds into my home 

Rest is so welcome

Fearing wakefulness
