Gigi Buys Yellow House
Yellow house was grotesquely interesting and a bit dilapidated.
Abandoned since we neighbors could remember.
I have always wanted to buy it said cousin Gigi.
Or family has heard her say this since she was in kindergarten.
She purchased it last year, when she was thirty-eight.
Without walking through it?
Raccoons and rats are the probable inhabitants.
Some of the other relatives

My Pet Poems Gigi
Pet Poem, GiGi
With quite a large grasp of human’s language,
Gigi is “little girl,” our princess. She likes that.
The smartest pup we ever had; brought home
As a rescue, found — they told us — wandering over
Open eastern Kentucky hills. Lost from somewhere.
— Perhaps intuitively seeking her destiny —
Until out

Gigi
I had meet Gigi Fernandez at the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco
at the tail end of Flower Power with the scent of carefree loving in the air
exchange students finding themselves in a different world far from home
tasting novelty and longing desire in nascent passion for pleasure and fun
enthralled by her beautiful mind and looks

Nanny Gigi On Liars
Liars distort, manipulate
do not willingly subjugate
little gossip and whopping lies
let integrity be the prize

Poem For Gigi
Her death has caused us all to pause and think
My husbands heart has begun to sink
into the depths of despair
pausing to catch some air
never regaining total control
his mother’s death has taken a toll.
Eyes so blue, they’d light up the day
in everything she had her way,
Seven children she carried in all
before her death two were
