Poetry

Things Left in Carts

Generally to be avoided
is the cart with remnants of a previous shopper.

On the Shelf With Expired Spices

One quarter teaspoon
is all they ever took from me.

Ephemera

Once cut, the flower
Barely a bud, will bloom

Enmity

Void of form
Crayon's wax the word

How to Hold a Grudge (While Folding Laundry)

In another time, it was said
the good wives (the best wives) knew how
to fold a fitted sheet

A Dedication

This site is lovingly placed under the protection and guidance of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Mother, whose gentle care and steadfast intercession inspire every word and work here.
