Rewards of College Education
in grade school
he heard about it
in high school
he prepared for it
in his first year
he explored it
in his second year
he focused on it
in his third year
he felt part of it
in his fourth year
he graduated from it
Now, he has a job
because of it....

Would Twelve Thirty Work
Would twelve thirty work?
Sure, I say. What day?
She gives me a sideways glance. “Today?”
“Sure,” I agree. ” Why not?”
A glimmer of surprise flits across her eyes.
She is pretty inflexible, so she does not understand me.
She did not understand why she had to have counseling classes either.
But this is my second year at this school.
Now she knows I am a thirty-minute break, and she appreciates me.
She thanks me profusely....

My Second Year
The recess bell screeches loudly
Students cramped in quarters
dismiss the high pitch
Ding dong repeatedly it fires
No one surrenders
You and I dazzled
Speak with eyes only
Seldom twitching, gazing still
Time trickles down in sinewy
streams of desire
we are fixed , motionless
This ten minute break bleeds
through the souls of our feet
breaking our silence
We retreat to separate rooms
troubling distance between us.

A Long Good Night
Dear mother too-long-gone.
One year,
second year of motherless
mother’s days. Never
thought you’d be the first
to go, over many who
seemed more likely,
but I’m not God. He knew.
He knew…we all die.
I thought I knew,
until you did.
The emptiness is complete.
Christ hung on that tree.
He knew
how bad separation
from a mother, from His Father
was. Too-long-gone,
come, Lord Jesus, come
reunite…
it’s been a long good night.

Happy New Year To Kings
Passover’s month is the New Year
for Israelite Kings
I know that seems like
a crazy thing… but back in the day
Jews used to date
the start of a king’s reign
by its proximity to Nisan
the month Passover’s in…
So, if a king was crowned
a week before Nisan began
By Passover he was in the second year
of his reign’s lifespan…
Now if you’ve always thought of Nisan
as the first Japanese-American car
Well, here’s this poem ~ and there you are...
