My Published Poems |
I have had two poems published via Poetry.Com. I am posting them here. I am far from Robert Frost or any of the great poets, but I like to "try my hand" at poetry. |
Beautiful Danger Wisps of cottony, soft white. Twisting, turning, spinning, swirling Dancing a dance choreographed by the wind. Falling upon one another Making mounds of softness As though angels had sifted talcum from heaven. Glistening in the lights of the night With a brillance more eye-catching than the Hope Diamond. Breathtaking to behold, Yet underneath its beauty lies danger. As the foot slips on the unseen ice And the car goes into a slide, The Beauty and the Beast of the storm Is revealed. Copyright 1999 |
Life Circle Life. Not the straight path we believe. Circle after circle connecting like a spiral you draw absent mindly as you sit in a meeting where you do not want to be. Going on and on like the drone of the voice of the school secretary making announcements over the inter-com system. An occasional event grabbing your attention like a hurricane make a larger circle than the other until - "ashes, ashes, we all fall down." Copyright 2000 |
Here is a cute little poem that I found. The author is Susan D. Anderson. Midlife Muddle When we were young you made me blush got hot and cold and turn to mush. I still feel all those things it's true, But is it menopause or you? |
