will put longer ones here, just a little one for now.
One and One.
A delight in overtures so easily forgotten.
The sex of a kitten sometimes hard to tell.
A moment of freedom before being locked in your cell.
The fading of the sunlight as the clouds darken the sky.
A memory, sweet memory,
the right place to die.

And a slightly longer one.................
Fishing for Survival.
When the time comes,
will you do it,
will you lose the self control,
will you let the veneer subside.
When the time comes
will you do it,
will you help another
or just make sure you survive,
and did you?
This poem is dedicated to the survivors in Japan of the earthquake/Tsunami event on 11/3/11; no criticism intended, but their plight triggered the idea. Have you donated to assist?
