I an Invincible
the ocean spray
flies with the wind
then on us
warm water
I sink into the sand
the sunlight
dampens
telling jokes
your warmth
giving me goose bumps
our togetherness
illuminated
by the moon's face
continuous drive
hoping it won't end
•
I wonder what
she's thinking
desperate
the mouse shares
his only crumb
a pause
to say grace
before we eat
if only God
heard what I thought
silence
nothing to hear
nothing to say
unified sound:
naptime for the triplets
•
the crescent moon
smiles before
the sun interrupts
brightness
five more minutes mom
bland oatmeal
starting my day
off with a bang
the school bus
more crowded than usual
the white blossoms
create waves
under the car
tidal wave
the stress of tomorrow
•
dripping down
my entire body
spring showers
who needs an umbrella?
bathing is overrated
the muddy boys
were easy to find
footprints
a hug and a kiss
the dog barks goodnight
a dark growl
makes the trees shiver
wolf pack
an old tree house:
laughs from inside
•
camping
stories only friends
and the trees can hear
refreshing morning
a bath in the blue lake
her and I
laughing as if
we were ten again
long car ride
stretching the legs
front headlight out—
the moon
is bright enough
coming home
welcomed every time
•
we surrender
to the comfort
of our bed
dog at my feet
licks my toes
already cocooned
beneath
five blankets
phone call
I pretend to sleep
constant tapping
on my bedroom window
cherry blossom lullaby
neither asleep nor awake
I am invincible
