I will be Forever in debt To my mother Any gift Would come up short
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
I don’t expect Diabetes education For the public But chances are You know one
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
The human heart ...leaps and jumps ...races and sings ...sighs and groans The treacherous heart can
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
We Are me and you Together Two hearts Two minds
Strong hands Hold me down To the bed I say to them I have to go
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
If I could draw a tree In all it’s complexity Would you be impressed? If I could draw a human face It would be but a trace
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
