Pick out only one doll,
the one you love the most of all,

A Grounding Technique
I can see:
The pretty blue sky,
with bright sun shinning.
Fall garden sleeping,
flowers are all dead.
Big bees a buzzing.
I can feel:
Cool breeze touching,
my warm dry skin.
Warm lovely sun,
covers me up.
I can hear:
The birds sing,
barking...

Twas the night before Christmas
"Twas the night before Christmas" and I thought I was dead,
my feet felt like two big clumps of lead.
There was pounding in my head,
all I could see was red.

Moon above crooked pumpkinsThe artistic viewpoint
Slightly skewed
Somewhat short
Just past the “two’s”
Water colors
On a white fridge
A bit a-kilter
Pumpkin heads
A blur of witches
‘Gainst the moon
O’er dripping leaves
‘Neath artist’s eyes

paper, compass, printing press, penicillin, rubber tire

The three boysThree boys thought they had seen the ghosts
resisting the urge to yell roasts
posing as known heroes
made ghosts to be zeros
Not knowing it was seven toasts

Rainbow KidI am a rainbow kid
I take pride in who I am
And embrace the crown as I am
These colors I embrace,
This rainbow, running through my blood stream.
They call it debased,
But, I call it redeemed.
My identity I...

It's All in Your POVHow would you feel,
If you went home today
To find a strange creature
Had entered your cave
While you were away?
How would you feel,
If the door to your cave
Had been kicked in by a kid
Who just could...

Dazzling Bright Boy
A light in my hands,
Wonder in my eyes,
No one understands
My glowing surprise!
Do you see with me,
As I gape and stare?
Will you catch for me,
This fire light I bear?

THE LITTLE MARSHMALLOWThe little marshmallow
Was happy and bright
Until he learns
His faith for the night
He found out that
He was to be scorched and burn
A stick through his body
And constantly turn
So, he ran away and
Took others too
He was so...

Gender MusingsIf I were a man I wonder how I’d be
Would I be considered soft less manly
Surely still a poet with passionate words
But maybe swayed by that leg the third
I’d watch women with denim different view...

Little Talia and her Toys
Little Talia, so cute and sweet,
Was so absorbed in her pursuit.
She built a tower, high and straight,
With colored blocks to her great delight.
She sat surrounded by toys in an isle-
A giraffe, an elephant and...

Back To SchoolEarly September rain
A dampened sidewalk,
Wet leaves lead me back
To blackboards and chalk
The wood of the desks
Cupboards along the wall,
Fresh, clean and simple
Newly awakens it all
The lessons learned
Countless memories made,
A moment forgotten ...
I'm...
