Mother's Smile
by Michael R. Burch

There never was a fonder smile
than mother's smile, no softer touch

So more than "much, " much more than...

Success
by Michael R. Burch

for Jeremy

We need our children to keep us humble
between toast and marmalade;

there is no time for a ticker-tape parade
before bed, no award, no bright statuette

to be delivered...

Days passed, and became weeks.
Weeks became months. Soon it
Was June. "Everybody in the pool!"

With all day swimming relays.

Sometimes, perhaps often when we are young

Sometimes, perhaps often when we are young,
we fall in love without knowing or having experienced real love...
that's how we learn... painful at times... happy for a while... but as we grow, we learn.
And when it...

Hey You

Pssst!

Hey you!

Yes, you.
Quick message
on the down low
so maybe not quick enough.

We need to keep us
under the WWW algorithmic
pulsing predative patterns
for suppression,
lack of positive impression,
unproductive repression,
anti-sensual depression,
lack of marketable massive expression.

Why is lack of public health
a...

The Illogicality of Commonsense

By Stanley Collymore

At first I wasn’t in the least interested in you. 
But then, why should I be? You, after all, 
are an unmarried and out-of-work mum 
just turned 23 and, additionally and 
quite evidently...

Be still my heart 1391

Flutter dear heart
Let this mystery start
Of entwined lace
And God’s holy grace
With scented chiffon flowing
Smoke from the chimney blowing
And stifled salted tears
From memories through the years.
Melancholy laments
What my love represents.
Indispensable betrothed vows
That soft emotions arouse.
Paradox wandering...

Eyes That Look Are Many Eyes That See Are Few

" You saw my tomorrow, seated on your yesterday's laps,
Dirty-duty rusty and arrogance humming, 
Bathing in the smokes of marijuana, basking it malodor, 
Yet, you didn't bother to wash me your words of corrections.

The Dream He Never had

He always dreams big on just about everything
He has been doing this since he was a child
And sometimes his imagination runs wild.

He likes to pull things apart and appear in the dark
and when you miss...

Happy piano playing days

2025.4.10
It has been 9 months since I played piano.
In the first few months,
I received few compliments.
I was not confident and felt embarrassed instead.
But eventually, I receive them every day and everywhere I play.
I even have...

My Dearest Daughter, Caroline Elizabeth Mclain

There are moments when the world seems too vast, and our hearts too small to hold it all.

Yet here I am, sitting by the window as the sun stretches its golden arms across the sky,...

Long Road

Softly moans the blowing wind
	crossing over bright glittering crystals
endless darkness lies black beneath
	swirling dancing blowing white

soft as feathers downy white
	soft drifts flowing softly slow
sliding smoothly across the way
	closing off the un-traveled way

twisting ribbon flowing down
	hard...

You Did Love Me

So I trickled out if
your life
As water through a
spring
Smoothing over the
points and rocks
alone
An adventure
I didn't give you
another thought
You were irrelevant
to me
I told myself this
religiously
Just someone I used
to know
Until now that is
Now I've done
everything I wanted
Traveled...

As Moon Beams Danced Across the Night Sky

when on a lark, this primate shut his eyes
   until sight formed slits doubling up as a wink
this earthling stared hard and scrunched brow
   unintentionally mimicking,

Let Me Be

Let me ride upon the crest of an aquatic wave, to spin and
Twist within the rippling tides, of the water spheres deepest
Ocean, allow this land creature to become as one, a liquid
Creature of complete fluidity,...

The Man Who Loved Gimewanookwe

He searches her face, scarcely remembering a time
He did not know her; seeing now her dark eyes
Surrounded by age and closed against the pain.

He searches her face, remembering the first time he saw her
Stepping lightly...

My sweet dreams overcome the flaws in disaster.

Radio

Hearing the whispers and hisses of a dreadful day
Without a word to say
Only the voices of winds howling "look how they sway, sway"...
Puddles It ruddles it will stay...
Never will it go away...

Rain is coming...
But thunder...
