Beloved Things
Black clothes, beautiful prose
Rain dances, holistic healings
My selenite crystal, Fair business dealings
Fairy Tales, make believe
Making commitments, Men who don't leave
Good hair days Ancient kingdoms, jewelry gifts
My pianoforte A successful artifice
New Age music, A day at the beach
Dancing Deadheads, clean sheets
Newborn babies, Straw puppy beds
Jarring fireflies
Brown hair with blue eyes
And catching phonies In their lies
Graveyard dates, Eccentric people
Losing weight,Expunging pain
Trickling down my window,
Droplets of rain
Katydids and peepers, the month of June
Travel, chaos, beneath the full moon
Intellectual conversing, Making the connection,
Spontaneous diversion,Bodies free from infection.
Children laughing, Social gaffing
Easter bonnets, Shakespeare's sonnets
When beautiful is ugly
My dog named Pugsley
The way he smells
Working in my garden,
Ground-covered bluebells
Righting wrongs,my father's songs
Long weekends ,money to spend
Shopping at the mall,
A day with my best friend
Rose' vino, and cappuccino
Quite Time, sleeping in
My dearest brothers
Fun without sin
That Pisa leans
And my Levi jeans
That birds have wings
When my telephone rings
That I've lived to know
These Beloved Things.
