Stoopid poems are
too hard to
get my head around.

Unblemished pages
Fresh snow fields
Look closely.
birds were here.

Hot chocolate
cold park bench
warm hands holding
my heart.

[Guest]

Streaming cafe window
Steamy cup of coffee
Sweet/sad memories .

Look!
It's a rainbow in the snow!
Church window reflections.

He's always there.
The fat man.
Feeding the gulls cake.

The boats look cold
Rocking as they dream
of summer.

 

[eagleyez]

even if
the power
clips

this wind

lites stay on.

 

[perks]

hopping
one foot
to the other
holding
the pee in

For ten, cut 'away'.
I'll stay inside with you
anyway.

he loved us so
oh daddy
i'd forgotten
your smile

*****

that picnic
sisters laughed
i remember
that long
ago day

*****

the yard
and six
lilac bushes
one girl
reading

*****

one window
one mirror
forwards
backwards
timeless
quiet eyes

*****

the snow
froze but
here tears
melt past
years
again

*****

we look in
the mirror
our ghosts
wave
we smile
