POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My mother wrote poems when she was younger, mostly about love. Later she returned to poetry to express thoughts and desires that she'd squelched over time. She passed the torch to me (her daughter) when she entered treatment.
In Her Girlish Wistful Gaze
In her girlish wistful gaze,
She now laments those fleeting days.
Youth's whispered echos, soft and clear,
Her innocence fades, replaced by fear.
Regret looms like clouds from her past,
Her youthful lust is all that lasts.
She now laments those fleeting days.
Youth's whispered echos, soft and clear,
Her innocence fades, replaced by fear.
Regret looms like clouds from her past,
Her youthful lust is all that lasts.

Single Piece of Light
Life is our single piece of light between two eternal spheres of darkness.
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita
Our reckless behavior brought
new life into being.
Family bonds were broken on that night,
never to be mended.
But still, there is joy in new beginnings.
I touch my inconvenient bulge and asks,
“Dear child, what will you do with this,
our single piece of light?”

Lauryn's Date - Part 2
Their first kiss was tender and short. His face was kind in the soft glow of a single lamp in Lauren’s apartment. There wasn’t a second kiss.
Lauryn rose from the couch and stood by a window, her silhouette framed against the city lights. Joseph, nervously shuffling in the background, couldn't ignore the unspoken tension hanging in the air.
Lauryn knew the complexities that might overtake Joseph's life, especially considering the unexpected news about her pregnancy. Despite the allure of their connection, she understood the practicalities and unlikelihood of a long-term...

Lauryn's Date
As they reached her doorstep, Joseph turned to face Lauryn, a gentle smile playing on his lower lip. The night had been filled with laughter, shared stories, and a surprising connection that left Lauryn eager for more.
"Well, Lauryn, I had a wonderful time tonight," Joseph said, his eyes reflecting sincerity. "I'm really glad we bumped into each other at that diner."
Lauryn smiled back. “Me too, Joseph. It was unexpected, but sometimes the best things in life are." Her eyes glanced down at her tummy where one hand rested.

In the Cradle of Her Body
In the cradle of her body, a secret unfolds,
A tiny heart with a future untold.
Within her a miracle begins to play,
A symphony of life in her wondrous sway.
Her body so beautiful, a source of pleasure,
Now harbors new life and untold treasures.
Curves blossom and grow as her petals unfurl,
A canvas of life from one precious pearl.
~By Megan for Lauryn

The Lethe River
After the first time we made love, the professor said,
“In mythology, the Lethe River runs through the
center of Hell and makes men forget their previous lives.
I’m going to call you Lethina.”

That Eternal Now
Sometimes in lovemaking, I was only
partially there. My mind darted
between before and after. I felt the rhythm
of my husband's affection but saw images of
what had been and what might be.
Finally, he drew me into the present,
into that eternal now where all of creation
places itself in service to the making of new life.

Limerick- I First f**ked in Ninety-Three
Janice's (Nizana's) Birthday Limerick June 3, 2017 40th Birthday
I first fucked in ninety-three
Always giving myself for free.
Some call me a whore
Always ready for more.
Come take a ride and you’ll see.

Horny Mother-to-Be
I’m one horny mother-to-be
It’s nothing that I could foresee
Men say that I glow
But all that I know is
My tits are now something to see
It’s nothing that I could foresee
Men say that I glow
But all that I know is
My tits are now something to see

Habits of Life
The new life growing in me is at the mercy of how I care for myself. If I smoke, my baby smokes. Since I think she’s too young to make such decisions, I decided to stop smoking. I hope my future daughter doesn’t mind that I replaced that habit with a habit I began at age 12 while lying on my stomach watching a couple kiss on TV.
