Poem: Catching Up
Poem: Catching Up
Can we talk a bit tonight? I’d love to
Hear what’s on your mind. Maybe I
Merely miss the mumbling of your
Soft voice as it drifts through the
Speakers in my often-silent room,
Or perhaps I prefer laughing with you
At every other turn of phrase over
Watching the ceiling fan turn. With
Each whirl that I witness, I wish that
You were with me some more. My
Heart pulls me to you like the tides
Are drawn by the moon, and I hope
To hear from you sometime soon.

Poem: Oatmeal
Holding your hands
Reminds me of having
Oatmeal with peanut
Butter for breakfast;
You are as warm as
The milky mixture,
As comforting as its
Smell, and as sweet
As the honey I stir in
To start my day with
A labor of love, and
Oh, how I do
Love you.

Poem: It Rained Today
It rained today, and I wondered
Where I was in the universe,
A speck on a speck on another,
Wishing not to be washed away.

Poem: Space Machine
Starry-eyed space machine, I’ve seen
You launch rockets right from your heart,
Sending them like fireworks into the dark.
I’ve watched your midnight eyes,
With their sparkles inside, mesmerize
A room like a full moon on a clear night.
Movie screen space machine, you have
An otherworldly opal sheen, yet you live for
Little things like old movies and worn blue jeans.

Poem: For the Stars
Stars above, paint a picture of light
Against the obsidian night sky.
Watch us wish on meteors,
Thinking that they’re you,
And show us little twinkles
As you shine down on us
Through the atmosphere.
We’ll reach for you again
And again and wonder if
Our hopes have reached
You, too. Stars above,
I wonder if you wonder
About and watch us as
We love to gaze at you.

Poem: Fish Tank
A Haiku
Let’s watch the world like
We’ve nothing better to do
Than drown in our peace.
