Uncategorized Acrostic, ordinary life, poem 2 Comments
When I return from a trip I often find myself searching for balance in the complexities of every day life.
Finding My Way
Being careful matters
All the more
Lately
As
New obstacles clutter the
Courtyard of my
Expectations.
I see that “As” as representing being, momentarily, on one foot, deciding where to put the other down.

Uncategorized Acrostic, Paperclips, play, poetry 1 Comment
With words, with the acrostic form, about something you can play with at the desk.
But I’ve been getting into old storage, and there are too many.
Oversupply
Pins that make no holes
Abundant in every file and folder
Part of a writer’s detritus.
Each once necessary for
Responsible sorting, but now
Cupboards and drawers are full, as are
Long unopened boxes.
I discard the few rusty ones,
Pile the rest in loose piles.
Save me! I’m drowning in paperclips!
