(2014)
I am sorry That I cannot be happier I know that I’d be prettier If I smiled If I could smile
No hay nada más sincero Que un regalo Inesperado Una carta Un chocolate
It’s not pretty When I cry People get almost as embarrassed as I
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
To love reading Writing and words And not be able to Communicate Frustrated
Does the world need Another book? Another poem? I add one more to the pile To be left alone
The human heart ...leaps and jumps ...races and sings ...sighs and groans The treacherous heart can
A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers
I know it’s for the best But it still hurts Hearing mothers complain For what I would give anything fo… My husband says no
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
I’ve known Deep inside All along My value That I matter
A family trait Massage Is our vice No shame Take what
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
