Live your dreams

Wake up and start living your dreams.
Don’t wait,
or hesitate. Live now!

6:33 a.m.

Mondays I wake wondering why
I must
Leave comfy sheets for bitter streets

17-Year Itch

My big hubby with furry toes:
love you
more than you’ll ever know.

The Tetons

Dad and son, hiking by Jenny
A fish
If only life was still

Winter

The winter breeze creeps upon us,
Fast pace,
Leaving no one behind.

The Starting Line

Like deer, we move swiftly forward
Through trees
As the gunshot echoes

Untytled

Interplanetary wheezes
whir sad.
Zzzing, zzing, zing they sing, sing.

Earthquirks

They said it was a 3.6
I ate
No soup splashed on my shirt

Moonrise

The moon rises in the dark sky
And I
Watch in perfect silence.

How Many Syllables?

If numbers were my specialty
Counting
Would have been easier.

I Hate My Roommate

My roommate woke me up tonight
Snoring
Snoring while I’m sleeping

Almost 18!

I’m almost eighteen in two months!
Although,
I do not act my age.

School Begins

Good bye summer. Good bye freedom.
Winter
Clasps your soul into school.

instantaneosity

snail mail stars lag e-meteors
in the
vast new mediaverse.

texas summer

no poetry here. just the drought,
okra,
your body next to mine.

Walking Home

Night falls, dark street, wind howls and leaves,
rustling,
I will not be afraid.

playtime

I got a four year old that will
not let
me write down a haiku

Sorry

Amy knocked over her sandwich
it was
no reason to get mad

Chasing Youth

I thought I was the only one
who ran
through the line her cane left.

time flies

8/26 is my birthday
60
I feel like I’m 16

THE MOON

The moon is my friend he greets me
At night
Before I fall asleep

TIME

Time is like a fast passing train
Speeding
A journey made alone

Arithmetic

I’m adding up my victories.
The sum
is still coming up threes.

Out of Control Kudzu!

Invasive exotic species:
Growing!
Consuming all the way

Cookies

I Really Like to Eat Cookies
Yum, Yum
Oops! I ate too many

Small things

Take this. The scent of morning or
coffee
Take this. The universe.

Commercial Realities

Perhaps had Pluto been diamond
it might
never have been downgraded.
