Notes About The Poem

Tidings

positivity in voice,
mannerism, mollycoddling
may bring tidings
up from down-in-the-mouth
to a weak grin
     if that doesn’t work
perhaps, a little gin,
olive plops,
fizz fizz,
a little sun, a little breeze
wings flapping…
     just
omitting, oblivious,
staring straight ahead
     tethered
to fair-weathered feathers,
free-and-queasiness of tears

Would a dry martini be preferable? Like your fizz fizz. Hugs.
