into the classroom
he wandered hoping this would
give him what he sought.

it began as they
all do and ended as they
all wished that it could.

clarification
is what she asked for and got
more lies than before.
4.
Mix and match she would
her feelings to keep from the
hurt she always got.

he found her less than
appealing and stayed with her
now for the routine.
6.
her smile brought him back
on her swing shift and he thought
a new job was found.

how pleasant the morning rain feels
on her face... needing more each day,
how nice she is now that her cracks
and crevices are filled in and smooth,
how lovely are her rainbow skies and all
the spruce and pine and hardwoods,
how they bend and spring back in the rain
the tiny little flowers do...
how kind is nature on these days
forlorn and a mother to us all.
8.
a wife, a mother, a sister, a daughter
and a friend if time permits... she is
these things and more...she is new and
old, sincere and full of faith and forgiving
in her own way... she is love and truth
she is the guiding light through the tunnel
we all must pass... she is my life.
9.
my eyes should burn and fall apart if
seeing you is not possible... look into
my future and tell me on what days
you won't be there... long enough
I have waited for you to arrive here.
10.
mysteriously
her branches move bobbing up
and down like puppets.
