Fighting For The Gold
she glides across
the ice with style and grace
skating as though she owned the ice
nailing each jump with expertise
sailing through the required foot work
then completes the
combination spins with extreme ease
such beauty to behold fighting
for olympic gold

Forever Yours
should the moon
retreat forever
behind a darkened sky
and all the stars
fall earthbound
without their
twinkling light
if the sun should
cease to rise
the clouds go
their separate ways
and all the birds
no longer soar
i still will
not forget you
for, in all truth
i am forever yours

Gathering Pecans
fond childhood memories
of gathering pecans
from beneath the pecan tree
linger on
the sweet smell
of mother's sticky buns
baking in the oven

Glow
a white duck
glowing in the dark
donning dark shades
to dim the light
its purple lips
pursed
mocking the night
a child's toy
and nothing more
