Some Say
she can’t let go
of papers, books,
things I think is
junk
she can’t let go
of plastic bags
single gloves and socks
worn out shoes
she can’t let go
everything has a memory
attached to it
some say she’s nuts,
a hoarder,
irresponsible
who am I to judge

Sail On – Colaboration for Peace 3
Photo by Mish
i found a friend when
i wasn’t looking
when i was in need
there was nothing
we had in common
except a love of the sea
and we sailed on

It’s A Small World
(are you humming?)
there is a whole tiny
universe going about
the business of living –
and dying –
finding food
hooking up (blush)
defending territory
a small world that
goes unnoticed
unless you slow down,
stop to quietly observe
every summer
a small world exists
on my milkweed

An Honorable Woman
She is a rule follower
even when no one is looking
she reuses and recycles
cleans up after her dog
checks in on elderly
neighbors – she is
also elderly
she keeps her word
returns library books
on time
she’s paid her dues
in this hard life
and still she laughs
she is an honorable
woman

Gardener’s Lament
I sit behind a glass
a window pane
looking out at
my barren garden
longing for sun and warmth
longing to dig in the earth
longing for green shoots
pushing always upwards
longing for blossoms
longing even to do battle
with varmints and bugs
longing for the robust
harvest that follows
a gardeners toil

whimsical pirate ships
fire breathing dragons
bunnies and kittens
two lovers kissing
on a bright blue canvas
finger paintings in the sky
