Plenty and enough
the happy twins
and cousins to
grace and grateful
are the blessed
children of gratitude
and of love
and the grandkids
of joy and
of patience peace
Month: May 2026
Rose
What if
the rose
only bloomed
once or
at night
or not
at all
would it
still be
worth keeping
if never
a bouquet
it would
ever see
Colors
I adapt
a chameleon
I change
my colors
but now
being alone
I can
finally be
my one
true color
or whatever
or whichever
or none
at all
Calm
The heart knows
no chaos and
the soul knows
no noise it’s
the mind that
disturbs our rest
and makes dreams
into its nightmares
therefore listen not
to its storms
rain will pass
thunder will quiet
and the lake
will again calm
Cushion
Poked picked
and prodded
probably pickled
soon too
arm becomes
a cushion
for needles
my mom
had one
in her
sewing kit
a tomato
I remember
