Ramona Dennis Poem
Notebook
Blank pages ruffle in the wind
I don’t know what I’m writing, I just know I must begin.
Every word is written down, who cares what It says
I take the opportunity to clear my crowded head.
Happy or sad, I release all my thoughts
Jotting down everything I’ve ever been taught.
Good or bad it has to be said
Whether it makes me happy or makes me turn red.
I love my notebook because it doesn’t judge
It accepts what I give and then gives me a nudge.
I don’t worry what others say, I’m not doing it for you
I’m clearing my head to make space for new thoughts to come through.

Ramona Dennis Poem
Acceptance can be your worst enemy,
Causing you to waste valuable time.
Creating this person that you really aren’t.
Expressions unreal
Perpetuating a persona,
Teetering on the edge of collapse.
Anticipating inclusion in the
Non-existence of inclusivity.
Causing more and more anxiety.
Express who you are and be content.

Ramona Dennis Poem
Butterflies black and blue
Butterflies I see you
Pollinating as you do
Butterflies I see you
Butterflies orange and black
Butterflies please come back
Butterflies of pale hue
Butterflies in light blue
Zebra striped fluttering by
Butterflies in the sky
Painted lady, swallowtails
Sitting on the fence post nails
Butterflies pink and blue
Butterflies I love you

Ramona Dennis Poem
The air is thick and misty.
The fog hovers over the backyard,
fighting to linger as the sun rises and starts burning it off.
The squirrels are quiet.
The birds are silent.
Even the prowling cats have decided to sleep in,
waiting for the mist to clear.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen a day struggle to begin.
The cobwebs are strewn across the deck, waiting for its daily destruction.
The lizards and rain frogs are still asleep.
A day like today should have been on the weekend
so I could close the blinds and snuggle back into bed.
Unfortunately, it’s the middle of the week and my daily work is calling.
Oh well, time to rise and shine and make the best of it.
Duty calls and I must answer.
