HER SMILE, a poem

 

Her sparkling smile

brightens my world

like a burst of spring

after a grim winter

 

The sap of desire

flows within me

flooding my being

with hunger for her

 

Her happy expression

creates an environment

in which we flourish

nurturing our love

DEATH on FIFTH AVENUE

 

         Chanting joyfully

          and fearlessly too

          Her face uncovered

          rallying for him

          And all he would do

 

          A great America

was their ultimate goal

No mask for him or her

Stand up as patriots

being so brave and bold

 

The enthusiasm she felt

burned so painfully away

when deadly covid gripped her

A contagious viral predator

insatiably seeking prey

AFTERWORLD, a poem



I ask what lies ahead:
a blank, a heaven/hell
return to the godhead
or reunion with those
I cherished in this world

          Will I find myself
          rejoining the love
of my current life
          or greeting partners
          from previous lives

          The idyllic outcome
          arriving over there
would be to join Ginger
before a dancing fire,
sipping Irish Whiskey
