Husband Poems

The well-dressed man walked
through a portal
With his head held high
Wearing a trench coat with an
upturned collar

With a confident air
A man you could not patronize
He would...Read More

Filthy and foul I found you, 
garnished in grime, 
drenched in dust,
polluted in your own putrid blood,

As you came of age,
I made a wedding...Read More

Jovially, you approach life, with jokes to share.
Optimistically, you view obstacles as opportunities.

Admirably, you exhibit traits of a savior.

For my dear husband....Read More

My home that I love so much
Boom, boom, boom,boom

And that’s it
He is gone
And the killers too are nowhere to...Read More

I am amazed to find that I have surrounded myself

Grief is a chain reaction,
sending sparks along neurons,
shooting spasms across muscle.

from earth
through root
up bark
across branch -

Grief is an element,

Grief is directionless,
spinning babies upon plates,
cutting love...Read More
