In a Rush
In a rush Storm drove through Tearing up the landscape As her minion, Wind, blew; In a rush Storm came around Saturating the scenery As her minion, Rain, drowned; In a rush Storm roared and churned Knocking down powerlines As her minion, Darkness, returned; In a rush Storm pulled away Down a path of destruction… Read More In a Rush

Potter’s Mark

Tea Leaves
Come girls Gather ‘round There are secrets here To be found; We called her Kewpie Named after the doll Because she never much liked The sound of Grandma at all; Around the table Nicely set for tea She poured the hot brew Over a sugar cube for sister and me; Swallow after swallow As quick… Read More Tea Leaves
