Rubber ducky

Rough day
Rough night
If I could live
In my bath
Water would never
Get cold
Heat spreads
To inner pain
Way to cope
With a book
And bubbles
And Epson salts

(2014)

Portrait of a Rose

Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
A girl who loves horses

A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers

My soft spot

My soft spot My sweet boy I’d do anything for Who convinced me Little boys are the best
A moment of luxury

Life is good A little luxury A cup of coffee Served with toast Consumed lazily

Beside you

Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
Stability

I crave stability Neither wandering spirit Nor home-body Yes I’d love to travel But the foundation
If I could make you smile

If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile

Driving standard

A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Does it hurt?

Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling

Chills & Thrills

I do not enjoy roller coasters I am not chicken But they say You just have to try it! So I do
Under the sunset

Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
