Poem #544

you’re failing everyday
until you succeed one day
you get congratulated
but you’re thinking
“that worked?”
that’s exactly what success is
try, fail, finally it works

Poem #543

my lover is a trout
both bold and shy
as the temperature changes

Poem #542

crystal pool blue water
three dogs playing around
a marvelous day in the sun

Poem #541

circling in a parking garage
almost hit
almost hit again
does recklessness know no bounds?

Poem #540

it is an emergency
see it that way
believe it is
live with a sense of urgency
because you’re dying
you just don’t know how quickly

Poem #539

you need to write
doesn’t matter if it makes you sleepy
get more sleep
you need to write
doesn’t matter if Facebook is calling
get off the internet
you need to write
doesn’t matter if you have no time
get your life in order
you need to write

Poem #538

green jungle in mesh box
Fish climbs the fake leaves
delights in her new habitat
and munches on meal worms

Poem #537

purring ball of fur
cuddles me while I sleep
pet pet while she sleeps

Poem #536

the capacity of this magic bag astounds
a wallet for purchasing things
a phone for communicating
keys for limited access
a cloth for cleaning glasses
coins for small purchasing needs
shells for a master art exhibit
firework remnants for the memories
comb for detangling hair nests
huzzah!

Poem #535

on the 110 freeway
winding South
among geometric bridges
and small mountains
