Anniversary Poems

15th's Crystal, My Dream Tryst Pal!
Due to our friends Michelle & Yedidia,
Hos V' halom, my shell didn't get rid o'yah!
Braving her high dive, echoing catastrophe,
Barbara cared! Leaven n' grit, for me a pasta trophy,
Together we dared, I also shook in...Read More

A sunny day for you,
a sunny day for me.
A day to say,
I love you.
A day for you to say,
you love me too.

J-ust keep the solemn vow, 
E-arnestly let devotion grow; 
F-ulfill the sacred promise, 
F-rom the heart you should follow.
R-ightfully keep the solemn vow, 
E-agerly let your swear be true; 
Y-our union before God 
reminds you of "I do".

Woven are these pages in poetic verse,

With bare threads of our deepest feelings,

You will find laughter, tears and remorse,

and words of wisdom, prayer and healings.


 

Healings now come from prayer,

On my knees I will be,

Did I just see an angel...Read More

Of Civilization and Disenchantment
by Michael R. Burch

Suddenly uncomfortable
to stay at my grandfather's house ?
actually his third new wife's,
in her daughter's bedroom
? one interminable summer
with nothing to do,
all the meals served cold,
even beans and peas...

Lacking the words to describe
ah! , those...Read More

Oh gossip where is your sting,
you are here today and hurting others for days to come.
Oh gossip how shy you are,
pretending to say nothing to anyone.
Oh gossip to say and to hear can't you just go away,
go away and don't...Read More

A dream of a sweet soft kitten,
a cuddly kitten to hold and love,
daily friendship and fun.

A dream of the morning daybreak,
bright colors now appearing,
sun coming up like the middle of a dream.

A dream that has turned into a nightmare,
gory details...Read More

The wings of Change
And a tin full of paint

mourning celebrations:

Easter without hunts
or relative sounds,
anniversary knells,
birthday sans icing —

tears well.

you wipe them off the screen,
clean as you go,
wash hypochondriac hands.

green sleeves

on the old oak awakes,
surely timed by mistake —
no one to dance underneath.

Autumnal leaves

ought to be
trickling down Ichabod’s arms
decomposing.
