In Wonder
She washes away all tiredness
adores me through late evenings
with lips gentle as flowered beads -
in love, she names me
through grace of prayer.

Don'T Be a Gobbler
There once was a young lad named Oliver
His Mom told him, “Don't be a gobbler!”
She also said , “Son,
Ain't no prize to be won!”
The fuzz will be checking your swallometer
