Oysters

Many people eat

Oysters but really

How many of

Them do you

Know ever found

One precious pearl

I will continue

For in each

One holds the

Hope it’s there

Enough for me

NoMoreCrutches (to Me)

Sometimes in life

We all need

Crutches me I

Needed them for

A decade until

One recent morning

I decided to

Take my life

Back from them

I can’t wait

To descend a

Staircase hang the

Christmas tree star

And dance with

Someone let me

Take your hand

And dip you

Reclaiming ones life

Starts simply quietly

By promising yourself

It’s my life

No one or

Nothing else’s again

MorningMissing

Today life is

Showered in sheets

Of gray linen

From clothes lines

Snap and billow

High above me

Far off kisses

Land silently on

Perfumed paper and

Texts yearning desire

And longing ache

As this morning

Starts cool here

Missing you again

TicklingKisses (to my Boo)

Sometimes in life

We get used

To where we

Are so used

To in fact

That those sweet

Summer breezes and

Wet grass tickles

Turn normal until

Oh they’re gone

And then we

Miss them with

A full orchestra

Of heart ache

Instead perhaps we

Should ask another

What they see

And accept that

Those norm things

We have indeed

Are the treasures

That others seek

Once again enjoying

Each other’s sweet

Summer breezes and

Wet tickling kisses

OneEyedMorning (to boo)

At the very

First crack of

Light on the

East like a

Lamp seen on

The floor beneath

The door morning

Starts here with

The sweet delicate

Sounds of birdsongs

Much like you

Start next to

Me opening one

Eye halfway letting

Me see you

Sleepily bathed in

Quiet morning newness
