I found the old map
folded neatly there
in the desk drawer,
unfolding I see
our last journey, planned
but never taken.
grabbing a pen from
my junk drawer a ford pinto
keeps it from closing
One day I cleaned a
bulging and over stuffed top drawer
found three keys hidden
in a yellowed envelope
marked in red ink skeletons
store all your humor.
and put them in the drawer.
for the boring time.

The pot boils. I have made it boil.
You eat what I set before you
and call it love, or Tuesday.
I smile the smile I keep
in the knife drawer.
I’ve said before,
And say once more
A poem’s monetary worth is nil.
It’s heart-wrung cost
Is always lost
Inside the cash-drawer of the till.
Fragrant lavender
Pervades small garden
Familiar perfume
Pungent hands from gathered stems
Embroidered sachet in drawer.
Listen to poem:
finding his old letters
at the bottom of my drawer
caught me off-guard ~
it took me a minute
to catch my breath
AP: Honorable Mention 2020
Accepted to medical school
Too old but in the entrance pool
Where is the back door?
There's my dorm with a drawer
Since I’m a cadaver quite cool
a curled snapshot
shivers in the drawer~
its blank center
softly glowing,
as if the moment
it once captured
were trying
to return
Listen to poem:
letters lie crumpled
when will you read them again?
open tiny tin locket
memories hidden
way back in chest of drawers
warm? among the socks and scarves
Letter that implies
Hidden message without words
Sealed with a ribbon
And saved in a wood drawer
Written with worldly wise words

Light work?
Give to granddad
The bits drawer will help him
Tape, screws, raw plugs, string, pins and bits
If no cure, use black tape
Strap it down hard
All done!
Emotion's scars
No longer bars
Who/what did I fear?
To stir a tear?
Soul almost tore
Can't live trapped in drawer!
Searching out peace
Time to release!

I never found
the courage to send

In a mysterious night

Missing you as I
touch small things you left behind
when I find in your drawer
my last gift to you -
the watch you had vowed to wear
while you were away from me.

My image will be added to Mount Rushmore
Could be animated of me chuckling forevermore
In the history books, I'd be
One who wrote about pee
Not very dignified but a poet top drawer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the antique glaze whispers ink-stained tales,
its drawer still holds her vanished breath~
a quill, a seal, three unread wills,
and time's thin dust.
I was but three when I took a stand,
just me and my hired hand,
a lonely, used-up kitchen scrubber,
and an intrepid band of rubber.
I blew up a little red balloon,
tied to a basket and left too soon.
My image to be added to Mount Rushmore
Could be animated of me chuckling forevermore
In the history books, I'd be
One who wrote about pee
Not very dignified but a famous poet top drawer
Sure like my image to be added to Mount Rushmore
It could be animated by me chuckling evermore
In the history books, I'd be
One who wrote about pee
Not very dignified but a poet top drawer
Family Mathematics
I was an only child
I had it ALL….
THEN…
The new addition showed up
My room was divided
my drawer space now minus two
because “they” chose to multiply.
