Written July 14, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori ************ So tiny, yet so vast: a square of purple flame, A postal stamp formed from forever lame. Houses at its center a half-cast, cloudy glass, Trapped in a gilded cage of grief and...

Disco Music Strobe light looks like moon-sun. Halo lights of red, blue, yellow, green. He wears classic Saturday Night Fever white. She has a white flower in her hair, head and hips swivel; one-strapped red dress. He points with hands over head. Ballroom floor bittersweet-blue. Celebration of disco music. I was dressed in strapless purple. Burned my bra. This stamp doesn’t nearly catch the falderal - not the...

Betty White lived so long, they had all kinds of names for her. She managed to stay America's sweetheart for a century by being kind and funny. A heart of gold worn on her sleeve, she could make everyone smile. Her sweet face is now on a stamp while the tributes continue coming. Her curls sweet and eyes a'glitter but it's her smile...

This stamp brings visions to our eyes Of years gone by, in summer's skies. He left to join our freedom's sound; And band of brothers, there he found. To guard our freedom, his thoughts turned- For love of country surely burned; With comrades joined, to then unfold a unity of strength untold. Two hundred fifty years this year Marine Corps- still, to us so...

I remember it very well. It was before the birth of email. It was a real 'show and tell, and It rings in my heart like a bell. Mankind has always found bigger And better ways to communicate. Over time and space, such avenues Have been greatly excellerated. In the early 70's, cell phones were large and rare, but landline phones were everywhere. Those landline...

What tale this stamp of time can tell in silence of a world once held, as captive by this forceful man, with death intent to conquer lands. We know not much except it’s found. Its worth would probably astound and have the cherished owner fear, Who would value this as “dear?” In simple plain coincidence it’s passed throughout the ages since and now by pure...

Goodnight Moon a children's book by Margaret Wise Brown the subject of my poem and my latest stamp purchase was also a book that I read to my son when he was little not thirty-three, like he is now forgive my forgetting the details the book is no longer on my shelf but in the story it's bedtime for a little rabbit who says goodnight...

My theme is, “Martha Washington – but why?” First Lady – how the Big Man’s wife behaves was fixed by her: so Jackie Kennedy was shaped by Martha. Coming through the rye, we learn that some are heroes, others knaves, and some deserve to live in infamy but end up famous. Think of “Family Guy”, the David Hasselhofs, the Flavor Flavs, or Arnold...

Life is but a stamp in time Daily progressing but holding back its rhyme We travel lightly never looking inward Until the day the past is splintered With thoughts and regrets of time wasted Living life to the fullest thinking it was well crafted But time marches on relentless and sure Leaving your footprints on the path obscured Trudging ahead but...

Bound by constructs of the mind, We use Time to define, The current line, we're Riding. Coinciding with Destiny. A Journey, set by You and Me, Before we could see, To experience Reality, Separately. Spontaneously designed, We are Unified. We are all Tied, By a Chord, Heading toward Victory. No more Trickery, Let your Truth set you free. Be who your creator, Made you to be. Perfectly planted seeds, Bringing harmony, Disarming hate. It's never...

In a world of paper, colors bright and bold, Lives a stamp collector, with stories to be told. With albums of wonder, and pages of dreams, Each stamp a journey, or so it seems. But shadows can linger, and hearts can break, For the pain of loss is a toll we all take. An...

I wonder, are there devices for the exchange of hellos in heaven or wherever after it is that we may go? Do you think there is a service where people wait patiently, to send messages in all forms for deliverance down this way, below? Well, I believe my sister is there, standing in a line,...
