Pocket Angel

{Post: 74/365}
beautiful token of LOVE
made out of
silver ball headpin
glass teardrop bead
clear acrylic
or
silver angel wings
clear crystal round bead
(the head)
silver daisy bead

made with love
gifted with love
given to friends
and loved ones
to hold in their pocket
as a reminder
they are LOVED

Insomnia

{Post: 73/365}
isn't it odd
that when you should be tired
and sleeping like a baby
you are wide awake
body thrumming
mind racing
creating
whirling
thinking
wake dreaming instead
of dreaming in sleep
and otherwise
up and open to
night time possibilities
but everyone else
is sleeping
so quiet is a must
don't disturb the slumber
of the lucky people
whose minds and bodies
have naturally given them rest
just write a poem
drink sleepytime tea
and relax
hoping for sleep to come again

MY Smile

{Post: 72/365}
it begins
with a warm feeling
in my heart
and flows
from heart
upward and outward
into my eyes
and on my face
it is the countenance
I offer to you
my friend
from
the warmth of my heart
and my
smile

Mad

{Post: 71/365}
I love the way
you make me laugh
even when I am mad
especially when I am mad
and you turn on your
charming boyish smile
and sweet talk me
into smiling
and laughing
at your boyish antics
until I can't even remember
why I was mad at all
I love that
even though 
I sometimes HATE it
because I WANT to be mad!
can't a girl stay mad when she's mad?
obviously not
when she's married to
a leprechaun!!!


Kitchen Chores

{Post: 70/365}

the usual
kitchen chores!!

Morning Cup

{Post: 69/365}
of all the morning drinks
that one can drink
and I do enjoy
orange juice
apple juice
milk
tea
and even
lemon water
none of them quite has
the KICK
the juice
the VERVE
if you will
of my morning COFFEE
I try to give it up
for healthier choices
and eventually
I give in
because I miss
the taste
the comfort
and the routine
of meds, breakfast and
a morning cup of coffee!

Lack of Focus

{Post: 68/365}
suffering from
a deplorable
lack of FOCUS
leads to
the pressured posting
of
NOT one,
NOT two,
NOT three,
but FOUR
new poems
OIY!
like ONE is not
challenging 
ENOUGH!!
get busy poet!!

LOL
