WORDS OF LIFE
Sunflower, Sunflower in the yard;
Why is poetry so friggin’ hard.
Your beauty is inspiring . . .
My thoughts perspiring . . .
The sun itself has me charred!
Knitting is not something I do…
It’s a gift given to few;
Mostly it is for the old . . .
Gift from Grandma, or sold!
Wait, I am grandmother age, too!
How I long for enough space;
To be rich, in this case.
I live in the city,
Where we artists deserve pity!
Instead we carry mace.
The pavement always below my feet . . .
Sunny, rainy or through the sleet.
Here I am in New York . . .
A choice I made, I’m a dork!
And happy to be of this elite!
Furiture and trees of oak.
Beauty my eyes love to soak.
I think I shall never see . . .
Anything lovely as a tree!
And available to admire as I’m broke!
This was so much fun to read! Love the playfulness and brutal honesty.
