(2015)
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
Tomorrow Has not yet come It’s promises yet to be broken Tomorrow Is bigger
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain
I crave stability Neither wandering spirit Nor home-body Yes I’d love to travel But the foundation
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
Good secret Bubbles inside Let me out Bad secret Indigestion
Algunos me gusta compartir Calientitos Justo cuando salgan del horno Que no se enfríe Por eso lo escribí
