Poem: Oatmeal

Holding your hands

Reminds me of having

Oatmeal with peanut

Butter for breakfast;

You are as warm as

The milky mixture,

As comforting as its

Smell, and as sweet

As the honey I stir in

To start my day with

A labor of love, and

Oh, how I do

Love you.

Poem: Thoughts about Thoughts of You

I watched the sun rise

On my own and didn’t

Think of how sweet it’d

Be to spend that time

With you, but then, does

Thinking about me not

Thinking of you count

As a disguised means

Of missing you again?

Poem: Catching Up

Can we talk a bit tonight? I’d love to

Hear what’s on your mind. Maybe I

Merely miss the mumbling of your

Soft voice as it drifts through the

Speakers in my often-silent room,

Or perhaps I prefer laughing with you

At every other turn of phrase over

Watching the ceiling fan turn. With

Each whirl that I witness, I wish that

You were with me some more. My

Heart pulls me to you like the tides

Are drawn by the moon, and I hope

To hear from you sometime soon.

Poem: It Rained Today

It rained today, and I wondered

Where I was in the universe,

A speck on a speck on another,

Wishing not to be washed away.
