Little Poems

Beautiful clouds and a crow

Calls

A lone yellow leaf

Falls

A small house with a turquoise

Door,

Leaves turning, a shift in the

Light.

*

Watch football with my husband

Or,

Read poetry to myself?

Poetry wins this contest

But,

A quarterback’s pass, well thrown

Is

Its own kind of poetry.

A field goal, if well done, and points added

Is

A kicker’s work of art.

*

Wait! Who am I?!

What creature has overtaken my mind?

An interception of thought?

*

My sweet cat.

A poem all by

Herself.

She is poetry with fur.

*

Things that are also little

Poems..

The sound of a book’s page

Turned,

A kitty’s steady stare at a non-object

Across a

Room.

One floret of steamed broccoli placed next

To

A pile of sweet potato fries.

Cold water drunk from a favorite

Mug.

A list of books read of a month,

No matter how small the

Number.

*

Also, the poem of the thought of

An

Excellent night’s sleep,

To which I am hopefully on my way.
