From You
Self ~
ponders the silver sliver of moon
absorbs spring sunshine
invents toys
cooks everyone’s meals
cleans other people’s clothes
covets music
laughs about love
mourns lost love
peers thru the lens at other selves
treats poverty pain and shame as shameful
drums into a new way
adores the green buds of fruit trees in march
revels in chocolate
puts on make-up
gets to work late
captures her shadow
builds wooden shelves
tears up old journals
lives life anew every moment
(by Leanne Grossman)
