When We Were a Couple of Kids
This should be a blank page,
but it is not…
Because now we have little ones
massacred in playful steps
while celebrating their last
Days of school.
Receiving honors for hard work,
looking forward to hazy days
and ice cream reasons.
Instead it is replaced
with Gurneys carrying out limp
souls of young bodies
dangling from under discrete sheets.
Screams are heard in meeting
places as families receive the news.
Darkness takes place,
” when we were A couple of kids”

I am a runner and I am not Poe, 😳 but I love this.
The clouds cover my run
As the birds sang me through
You must love the morning
And nature makes it about you .

Flower of Shakespearean Birthplace
Wisteria slowly blooms
against the aged fence.
The petals turn toward sun,
Purple shades and sweet scents.
The bard his memory take
among the flowers fair
while his immortality wakes
Shakespeare claims it years .

Clouds
I remember I would lie
Looking into the sky
The aquamarine blue
Stretched way up high
Hung with invisible means
puffy white clouds
Would show up in streams
Of shapes like Animals
or people I have seen

Angels Among My Garden
I look and then I stay,
The angels keep the garden
And with me we pray 🙏
Angels among my garden
A path I will keep for you
So when you come and visit
You will always get through .
