Medium

Not quite large

But bigger than small

Not happy

Nor sad

Just about on the line

Or even

On the line

 

She thought he knew

He only saw a thin line

He balanced

And waited to cross

 

He thought she knew

She was medium

Sized perfect

Waiting for something

 

Medium

Like between a devil and a dove

Mint chocolate chip ice cream

Dog walking bird chirping

Silent waves

 

Medium

Waiting of the time spent

Recalled

Like an opera singer

In the musical devotion

Have a bottle of wine

 

Medium

Put Bob Marley on

And relax in a bath

Candles burn

Chill

Be medium

But be beyond

 

Medium

California dressing

Undress

Bermuda shorts

Miami screams

 

Medium

Reaching upwards

Bending and curving

Hear the calling

Medium

Howling at the wind

Or just the full moon

Picture snapped

Etched in my head

 

Medium

Don’t fear

Just go medium

Medium shade

Medium drive

Medium pulse

Medium rocket

Medium honey

Medium sheet

Medium paint brush

Medium color

Medium whiteness

Medium
