Desertion
Despondent, she creaks to and fro, to and fro, upon the porch, her bony hands stroking the tomcat curled in sleep on her lap. Hours it's been since he left. Stealing under the branches, dark with bats, rowing across the river, its c
Angel in the dawn
Wrote this for my cousin who lost her young daughter Sarah aged 5. She loved the dawn and could always see the hope in everything around her. I was always the pessimist (something that seems to come with age) and she the optimist. The brightest lights shine for the shortest time and her influence on me means that now my glass is always half full.
"Grand" Parents
I came from a broken home and was thrown from pillar to post. I would stay with an aunt and uncle for a time. Then with a lady-friend of my dad's. But the best time of my life growing up was when I got to stay with my grandparents. The part about the tomato is true. My grandpa would sometimes take a salt shaker with him in his shirt pocket when he went out to tend the garded. He'd pick a tomato, lick it and then sprinkle salt on it and eat it. Well, "monkey see, monkey do"! One day he went to the garden and I followed. I started eating cherry tomatoes. He noticed and said, "Hey! Stop eating the tomatoes". I replied "But, you eat them all the time!" And Grandpa said "You just wait for supper". So, I still had one cherry tomato left in my hand. And, he made me angry with his one-way business,so, I hauled off and threw that tomato at him whilst he was bent over. The tomato just missed hitting him in the head by an inch or so. I got so scared at the thought of what would have happened had I connected, that I almost peed my britches.
Mama
I Wrote This Poem Way Back In 1992, Just For My Loving Mother Who Was Always Near When She Was Needed Most, And Even Now When I Need Her Most, And I Am Feeling Sad Or Blue I Just Need To Pick Up The Phone, And Give Her A Call She Always Knows Just The Right Thing To Say To Bring A Smile Back And Help The Sadness Go Away!
DADDY

Teddy Bears in Paradise
This is a deeply personal piece. It is whimsical, and at times silly in it's words, but purposeful. Hidden within its words are moments, places, and dreams once shared with someone special. Even the dedication has a special code. If the person for whom it was written should find it here she would surely recognize it. I have often thought of producing a line of teddy bears based upon the poem and including a bound copy with each bear.

Brothers
this poem comes from the chinese tv series Romance of the Three Kingdoms. the poem was writen by Cao Zhi brother to Cao Pi. when Cao Pi took over as heir after Cao Cao passed away, Cao Zhi was under arrest by his brother Cao Pi. for not showing up for their fathers' funeral. so Cao Zhi was asked to take 7 steps and develop a poem by the time he stepped the 7th step. or he would be punished by marshal law. I enjoy this poem alot and it really has meaning and depth.
