Norma -A Story Poem-
Norma was a little girl lost,
she came from a broken home.
Her mother was prone to madness,
fits of delusion,rage, and sadness.
Though her early life was a portrait of devastation,
Norma rose above it all and she found sweet salvation.

Late Confession
“I love you!” Says the girl to the boy.
“No response.”
Sound of wind and sea rushing from the distance, it was all so perfect..
Moment of silence rushed past between them both.
The girl smiled either way waiting for his response but she knows he will never say it back to admit he loves her.
….
That memory of that

A fairytale or not, Short story poem
She acted her way into his heart.
The lovely actress was very smart
She new her brown eyes and figure so slim.
Would win his love, if she acted for him.

Now they live happily in the USA.

At Sunrise - Story Poem
Kismet brought them to the same train,
They longed for the same rain,
Nature and art were the only panacea,
That would part their gloomy nausea.
They sat on top of the same roof,
Not too much aloof,
They read a book,
As they gave each other an amiable look.
They had the same

Eden Island Tour Story Poem
Eden Island, oh wondrously awesome
Offered to us free tour with grand welcome
Thus, we explored the paradise midst bliss
Enjoying all; nothing our hearts did miss.
Our first day with Adam and Eve was great
As they showed us day and night’s divine date
In survival quest with revival zest
Exalting God*, life’s Source, perfectly best.
Second day supplied us with wisdom

The Get Away Story Poem
I broke my ankle badly yesterday in a fall.
I had no intention of going back to work at all.
A friend offered her holiday house for me stay.
I accepted immediately as I needed to get away.
I arrived to a little cabin all cozy and neat.
On the mat ‘Welcome, Please, wipe your feet.’
Inside it was furnished in

Sunrise, Sunset: Story Poem
The sun began to rise at the pale wink of dawn
just as the moon wearied and started to fade.
There were dappled rays spread across my lawn
then disappeared behind a maple forest glade.
Refulgent light hovered above earth at midday
while the moon rested before her nightly reign.
As people basked and romped all day in play,
celestial bodies pretend

The Christmas night a long time ago was freezing cold,
a six year old he couldn’t keep the excitement on hold,
for the lovely gifts for him Santa would bring,

Along Skips a Girl With the Sun In Her Smile - Story Poem
~
Along skips a girl with the sun in her smile,
patchwork illusions, the valleys alight
Dragonflies hover. mid-air, in their style,
meadowlark melodies echo in flight
All come to see as she sparkles and shines,
free as a hummingbird greeting a rose
Buttercups twirl 'side pirouette pines,
pristine reflections her beauty now shows
Days tend to wander when warmth saunters in,
whimsical moments adrift

A Fairy Tale of Romance - Story Poem
Once upon a dreamy fairy tale night
Two lover's hearts went soaring off in flight
The setting a magical seaside scene
Enchanting beauty befitting a queen.
Fairies gathered to gaze from on a star
For romance delighted their tiny hearts
So enthralling was this mystical sight
They sprinkled their fairy dust o'er the night.
Sequin-silver jewels enhanced night sky
Twinkling on the sea as

We want our two cats to be kept inside.

The Early Bird Story Poem
Before I stirred, the early bird
Built a nest on my head
Then on one date, it found a mate
Before I got out of bed
With outside dim, I tried beating him
When next day I arose sooner
But all I heard, were chirping birds
Leaving me in a bad humor
The very next day, to my dismay
The two birds perched on

A Time Past - Story Poem
In a time past there was a little girl,
and though quite sad she liked to swirl and twirl;
she lived with Grandma in an attic room,
it was pretty but she was full of gloom.
Mom was sick because she was very sad,
and the place where Dad was dwelling was bad;
you see my sister had tragically died,
I
