Not much warmth but lots
of light…like many hard truths
that have come our way.

Finding The Path
Sometimes we can see more clearly when both
our eyes are closed.
Distraction
free, we
can
look
at what’s
going on
internally
and chart our course with opened mind and heart.

Mixed Melody
Daffodils trumpet
golden music beneath sky’s
canopy of gray.

Multiple Choice
You can cry over
spilled milk. You can even lash
out and blame the glass,
the table, someone near by.
You could read into
it some cosmic message from
on high and ask for
hints of its deeper meaning
or you could just note
the mess you’ve made, and with no
more ado, begin to clean.

Hit Parade
Our dogs don’t whisper.
They sigh, paw, bark, and groan. If
necessary they
combine them all together
in a rousing song and dance.

A Sweet Moment
Simply here,
holding the fruit
of my poetic labor,
I rest.

Love’s Labor
Most of my work,
done and undone,
can be found in my head.
Sometimes though,
my hands and feet get involved
and the fruit falls from the tree.

Course Of Least Resistance
Caught in a net of
confusing feelings, she searched
for a way out. When,
at last, she stopped and took them
in, she watched the net dissolve.

Retrospective
So quickly they passed,
those days that once seemed as if
they would never end.
