Short Libby Poems

Last night, Libby, 
I dreamed you brought my little dog Okuni 
to visit me for a little while. 
Thank you. I'm hoping dreams are real....

An Albatross Before

I hate to sound like  an albatross,
But Libby does have hearing loss,


And criticizing will make her cross.

Another church experience. She
is roaming around church to see
where the sound is the best.

I shall do a dish and a dash and a ha ha ha
making myself young, so fiddly fah lah lah
so saying, the old witch gave a loud gaffaw
her cauldron boiled and bubbled next to her bra

I pretend to cook kale and sauerkraut too
but in truth, I am concocting a witch’s stew
to make me as young as twenty-one or two
Wish me luck! Cackled the old hag, Libby Lou....

Im afrade i have some confusion,
that my love for you is just an illusion. 

and when i see you i feel dread,
and all these thoughts run thru my head.

about if i say "i love you " as a repeat ,
but i know i make your life compleat.

i don't want to hurt you ,
but i can tell if my love is true. 

why do i have all these questions, 
and i need a lot of answers .

but im scared ,
so be prepared.

She experienced life
in her own way

The way a woman will.

At times she loved a man.
At times she was alone.

Collecting Memories,

Like shells on a beach
Or stored in jars,

Beside the mirror
In her bathroom.

Water, always the way,
In which her life flowed.

And now, she returned
To the memory of a well,

Into which she once
Cast her wishes.

Like the one about that boy.

The one.. 

That never came true....
