I Just Want to Say
today
before dawn
breaks
when
the room
is dark
hums
from the
furnace
fracturing
the seeded
silence
the hound
asleep
on the couch
snoring
& you
far away
in Indiana
I sip
strong coffee
& see you
entering
the room

I love how words are hiding inside the poem. They are folded in!
lineation and white space overcome when you conjure her up in your imagination in this awesome love poem
Total mastery of spacing and pacing.
That! “fracturing the seeded silence ”
Beautiful, yes to echo Gabby ” this awesome love poem”
The spacing highlights the poem’s depth and sentiment.

Wow!
Love “fracturing/the seeded/silence”
Love the space you give to the words so they can come alive on their own. Well done!
