Today
I read a newspaper,
In it was half a column
On a people starving and dying,
The rest of it was :
Photos,
Crossword puzzle,
And faded letters.
My trusty pencil helps me out
At crossword puzzle time.
It also comes in handy
When I'm working on a rhyme.
A ball point pen just wouldn't do -
That really is the case -
For I would be at quite a loss
If I could not erase!
If life is a giant crossword puzzle,
how many blank spaces do you have
How many words have come together,
how many crossroads in your path
Each grid connects with meaning,
what row by row unfolds
The story then, the story now
—that square by square is told
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
sunday sunrise
breaking through
bay window
coffee brewing
the aroma inebriating
crossword puzzle
pencil in hand
and in the kitchen
dreamy wafts
of costa rica java
mingling with
perfumes of
strawberries
and waffles

A person who is sensible
A bit adorable
Who laugh with me
Appreciates when i go right
Precludes when i plan to give up
Who patiently wait just to listen what i wanna say
He is the one i wll always find in my way
He is like a crossword puzzle
Whose rays of trust makes me go dazzle.
He is my buddy, my precious stone
That makes me feel proud for what i own..
This life I live in front of you is a crossword puzzle life
Blank boxes running up down as well as side to side
Fill a few in there is still so much I hide
Inside of this, my crossword puzzle life
A lot of what you see is still a mystery
Just enough I reveal to you to make you stop and think
Black and white on the outside is what I let you see
All the while a crossword puzzle life is what is hidden underneath
My pencil is ready;
The boxes are bare.
I look at the clues
That are luring me there.
I always begin
With the first clue across,
Continuing on
Until I’m at a loss.
I do not despair
If a few I can’t solve
But begin on the down clues
With extra resolve.
The empty spots beckon;
They yearn to be filled
And if I’m successful
I’m quietly thrilled.
Today is the date when
We puzzlers cheer
For since 1913,
Once a day they appear.
No matter when my flight is
On the day I’m flying home,
I am early to the airport,
Where I sit and write my poem…
And read my book or magazine
And grab a bite to eat
And work a crossword puzzle
‘Til it’s finally complete.
It’s not worth the anxiety
To do last minute things,
For any slight delay (like traffic),
Oh, the grief it brings!
For someone prone to panic,
Having hours to unwind
Leads to not one drop of boredom,
But a calmer frame of mind.
spooky Christmas tree dances in witch Winnie Web's corner
candy bowl with pumpkin spice, sitting next to mourner
red and green candle is glistening with glitter said the bat
who is wearing masquerade mask to fool the hostess’s cat
the trick to being unseen is not dark shared merry ghosts
their grave words were spooky, if you asked the Christmas host
haunted bubble lights on the Christmas tree lit up the room
What five letter word starts with g and rhymes up with broom?
