This was a project I did basically during the pandemic. I started writing a poem a day. Once ‘real life’ started again it got harder to write everyday, which is interesting.
I have started to edit some of these mostly the kids poetry. I think there might be enough here for a book. We shall see.
I make no claim that much of this is “good” poetry. But I do make the claim that I loved doing it and I learned something and some of it makes me cry.
a good poem
a good poem
a pond
plain beautiful words
floating
the moon
arranging light
perfectly
conjuring
this moment
my poems
want to run
in the sun
for some fun
get her done!
fling some mud
hear the thud
ain’t no dud!
a good poem
all things an ocean
sometimes we feel
we want to stop
take a break
sit down and plop
but once we do
we realize quick
inside and out
no thing just quits
the waves still break
our hearts still beat
the world still turns
the sun still heats
we are a part
of constant motion
inside and out
all things an ocean
