I Still Believe In Unicorns

When we are small 
We believe love will cure all
That good deeds go unpunished
That our dreams will  fully flourish.

When we grow up we are pessimists 
Flaws in all things exists
People let you down
And all smiles turn into frowns.

But I want to hold on to sunshine
To rainbows, unicorns, all things magically divine.
I want to hold on to you,
Because love and dreams can come true.

I love our childish ways
Gummy bears and cartoons on Sundays
Pizza boxes, no plate
Still believing in what brought us together; fate

Mr Fix It

My car breaks down
I’m pissed, vicious frown
You hug me tight
You say, “It will be alright”
“I’ll fix it”

Wrenches, sockets
Bolts in your pockets
Smeared cheeks, grease
I hand you those not these

You lay on the street
Jeans and feet
My heart held captive
You’ve never been so attractive

His Hands

Handsome Hands
With a ring on the left
Hold my happy heart

The Evil Shopping Cart

In car seats sitting in a parking lot, grocery store
We witnessed a most ghastly gore  
An out of control shopping cart
On a path toward my car door

I yelled, “WHAT DO I DO?!”
When in a panic
One often has no clue

I panicked and raced
To get keys into place
But they landed 
Jingling to the floor
You said, “HURRY!!!!”
I tried my best to scurry

Relieved when the key and ignition
Made love
I threw it in reverse
For the cart wasn’t to be coerced 


When we escaped
Feeling like heroes, caped
We put the groceries on the counter
And made love for an hour

Flew Away

I clung to you
I cried, scared
You're so small
You put your trust in me
I felt failure, fatigue
Held hands, one finger
I wept while you flew
Tiny arms strapped down

Meet Your New Nephew

Dearheart
You precious little thing
Tiny in my arms
Small and fragile
I think I’ve met you somewhere before
There is a quiet knowing between us
An unspoken bond
Hello old friend
It’s nice to see you again

My Heart's Little Ditty

If ever there were a winner here
It would be Me, Myself, and I
The one you have so chosen
To hold beside you under nighttime sky
While owls hoot a lullaby
And my heart cries out a little ditty
Goodbye says my heart
To the fear, the 
Loneliness,
The unrest, so unsettled in my soul

The Gentle Man

Sweet husband Your calloused hand tender Warm and reassuring On the small of my back Guides me into a room Before yourself

Cotton Ball

Itty, bitty bunny out my window
Fine, furry, funny fellow
Underneath flowers yellow
Wiggly nose and ears pulled back
Eating grass, chew and snack

Noise! Run to burrow!
Wherein your others await
Familiar, fine, furry, funny fellows
Like yourself, with furry, fuzzy cotton ball butts
In the burrow, safely shut

Liquor Lips

If I were the bottle 
You would press your lips to my neck nightly.
If I were the liquid
 You would consume me multiple.
But I am just a woman
Who needs your attention always. 
If only you could
Liquor lips.
