(some have titles, most do not)


Wolf

Still, calm, and stoic

Watches from off the path

The smell of baked goods tempts him away

To hunt.



Nails on a chalkboard

Stinging my sensitive ears

Can you stop that, please?



Princess

Soft and precious,

Sits in her tall tower.

Waiting for her beloved.

All of these years - will they never come?

Save me.



Help! Help! Help me, please!

I fell down a well, you see,

I may be stuck forever.



Fall

Breezes and leaves.

Jumping back into school.

Light jackets, pumpkins, Halloween

It's time.



Read the directions!

This is not what the picture

On the box looks like.



Garden,

Beautiful and special

Rising under the sun

Growing and changing evermore

Blue, purple, yellow, green, brown.

Flowers.


Torn

A grey, thin jacket.

I remember the items

you have given me



December 15th

A Christmas party.

The word app on a Kindle.

A red pen and ice.



December 15th

Light.

A lamp.

Up all night.

Us writing to escape

winter.
