POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Expect most of my poems to rhyme, it is simply too much fun to stop
Oh the world
I will steal,
trees
mountains
oceans.
For you
I’ll change the world.
I only
want to see
the sky
in your eyes.

Flow of Creativity
Isn’t it a pain,
how inconsistent your skills can be.
Sometimes poetry flows,
like a calm and beautiful river.
Other times it’s more like rain,
pounding at the already beaten pathway.
Other times it meets a large and robust dam,
and just stops.

Harm of the past
I’ve been here before,
at war with whispers,
eyes on the dysfunctional line,
that separates my hand from wrist.
But this time there won’t be touch,
for I have set a boundary with myself,
to love better than with a knife.

To live is to lose
To endure loss
is a talent
of tremendous pain.

Nearly Arranged Marriage
He’s a wiry young fella, ain’t he,
more of a colt than a stallion, I’d give him a three.
Well come on now, it’s plain to see,
he’s not exactly bourgeoisie.
But maybe he could wed Marie,
she’s pretty enough to a degree.
It’s a win for us all, a guarantee,
just make sure that she won’t flee,
at the sight of poor Louie.

The White Finch and Crocus
Oh hello there, tender little flower, so beautiful and bright,
we have much in common, you and I, we both love in the light.
Your petals, my dress, we both look great in white,
short yet proud, we both stand at the same height,
prudent and shy, we both hide at night,
gentle and kind, we both never fight.
Don’t forget about me, when I’m out of sight,
it is late now and I must take flight.

Granite Found in the Forest...
I feel more like a rough draft than the fine print.
My condition is harsh, coarse and rugged, not mint.
I am not pretty, elegant or graceful, maybe if you squint.
I do not sparkle, twinkle, shine or glint.
But despite all of that, I can do in a stint.
