stuck in jar on kitchen stand

Looking back, was the rose in me,
Looser having his heart savagely grime...

Looming at the jar,
Was the poisoned love.

Still a boy
Such a happy Ladd
Catching fireflies
In a jar, in midsummer night
Oh, what a dandy, said
His copper moon eyes

Jar of Memories

Bits and pieces
treasures in a jar

Shells and stones
feathers and petals

Memories and happy thoughts
of daily walks and time

  cradled a glass jar
  full of twigs

  his name tag is off
  on the playground

  quite serious
  eating his lunch

Canopy of Pain

sunshine fades away
chaotic sullen whirlwind
ink jar knocks over
bleary heart in disorder 
canopy of pain pours rain.

Rain

Woke up to still sound of rain drops
Trickling over my coin jar
My empty coin jar
The same jar that I wad saving up for a rainy day

Stitches 
Big needles 

I ran and I fell 
The jar broke and cut me 
Thirteen stitches in my hand
