leftover lasagna
lettuce pray
loving laughter
how was your day?

antique roadshow
wine to drink

Her story careened like a buffalo stampede
Editor said it was too much to read
Tame the riot
No one will buy it
Herd your words
Or
Book won't proceed . . .

Your written words
Like flying birds
Have stirred . . .

May each day hold an unexpected delight
A hug, a smile, a happy memory,
Music, flowers,
Moonlight,
Dreams of ecstasy,
Tantalizing tastes of nourishing noshes, . . .

Paper piles form a mountain
Soft wind sighes "Oy veh"

Climbing the mountain
My pen signs the checks to pay

I came from earth core fire
Roiling molten mud
Erupting into icy air
On the mountain top
Meeting with the salty sea
Boiling brilliantly . . .

Because you're far away
So I search the sky and heaven on high
And then begin to pray
May your nights be delights . . .

heart an open blossom
eyes intent
