Reveal...

what poems do
is tell about 
you.
the you
who writes.
the you
who reads.
like it or not
we see
who you are.
like it
or not.

Haiku for you...

summer swelter is 
heavy on the leaves, almost
as if raindrops fell.                

sweet peonies fill
my eyes with beautiful pink 
feathers of petals.

the sun is shining
somewhere every day. Be glad
when it blesses you.

Love letters...

Your name is Love.
my Love,
don't die before me.
that's selfish, I know.
but I don't want to miss you
before I go.

********************

I can feel you breathe
from far away.
It's all I need
to know you are
with me. 

 

Afternoon on a Hill...

I will be the gladdest thing
   Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
   And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
   With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
    And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
    Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine,
    And then start down! 

Edna St. Vincent Millay
