Curtainless glass unable to subdue the urgency 
Car obtained in street nearby was theirs temporarily
Three hour drive to ship leaving island next morning

Two sixteen year old girls barely registered surprise...

Blood On the Bible

The indecision builds 
while staring into the velvet covered bible
and knowing that you have already
read more than was necessary.
Yet you stand and read on and on
hoping that one small word
will shine into the dark crevices
separating...

Chilled Dawn

She is shadowed by fuzzy cobwebs of a morning without coffee,
while dust motes mingle with the mold of time.
Gazing out to the yard, through dingy glass, and fog, 
into a dismal January, she hopes to...

If This Table Could Talk

f This table Could talk
By: Tom Wright

You say,
It's only a wooden table.
While in a sense, I guess that's true,
but being laden with character and warmth.
It's a table that reminds us of you.

I should think
that each...

Home

Winter morning light filters through lace curtains,
Reaches down, spills onto the corner kitchen sink,
Through east and south facing windows.
The glass jar, the scrub brush and pad in plastic butter dish,
A down-turned, empty yogurt container,
The pink...

Saving Myself In Freezing Waters

Man it is bitter cold, and the oar is gone floating down river fast.
My canteen has whiskey, so I take a swig; knowing it has to last.
Where are my matches? I ponder so I grab...

Junk

The old lady down the street has passed
and left no one they could call around;
except her old cat she called Miss Sass
It will take looking before she's found.

Her friend decided on a yard sale.
Mostly junk...

Perusing the Tea

Perusing the tea, what it brings, vitality, refreshing, or tranquility.

tea’s altruistic -
the elixir gives itself

I Thought We Were Happy

I thought we were happy he said.
Because he was happy.
He had given up nothing.
He had his hunting, fishing, and trapping.

His wife had her cooking, cleaning, and housework.
Surely that was more than enough to make her...

Clouds

The sky emits a shroud of white
That deftly coats the ground
As if by magic, nature paints
And never makes a sound

No sound comes forth from frozen ground
Nor ice cold gentle breeze
A searching eye confirms the fact
There's...

Looking Lace

long legs looking
lace & doily,
fit for grandma’s
china cabinet
& just as porcelainesque
in perfectly painted lips
& an inanimate gaze,
but there’s nothing of pre-sexual
purity in those long legs
looking lace.
lascivious my thoughts left 
her walking by thw window,
watching my...

A Prissy Teacup

You give me a smile that only comes from you

Poem of Appreciation

Sister Moon in afternoon slumber,
you await your moment of awakening;
I see you reeling in early evening sky and

Time has marred your lovely face but,

scoops of mid - dawn sun greet my fresh skin
touching laces of buttered stems, infant leaves,
soft-boiled branches threaded doily thin

Crafting

A superpower some claim it to be.

Turning yarn into a cardigan or doily.

Click clack go the needles in a flurry.

Abandoned by Muse

My muse has left me 
I don’t blame her at all
I bleed peach poetry
And I rarely barely talk

My mood is melancholy 
For I’ve lost inspiration 
Mellow moon is calling
My muse in anticipation 

Shining like a...

The Dawning Sun

When spring is like the dawning sun
through frosted panes anticipate
the morning after winter's done.

In vernal womb where life's begun
the anxious babes of summer wait
when spring is like the dawning sun.

Another lace of frost is spun,
