Monthly Archives: November 2014

Unwanted Visitor

As we track the storm
We light the birthday candles
Before snow busts in

Birthday Party Sounds

After rock climbing
Voices of five boys erupt
In a tiny room

Cold Air Attack

The November air
Bursts in through ancient windows
And shreds our blankets

Book Exchange at Perkins

He was off to swim
First I combed through his work books
The torch passes down

An Odd Birthday Gift

Alex hates pizza
But on her brother’s birthday
She gave up the fight

Democrats 2014

Run from Obama
Feed the right’s propaganda
Wonder why they lost?

Big Phone Show

As phones grow bigger
Word choices shout from the screen
Texts in Broadway lights

Daylight Savings Time

On one night a year
A shiny, new hour appears
How could I spend it?

Room Reset

He purged toys and books
Ones that are stuck in his past
He preps for what’s next

Halloween at Home

The relentless week
Pushed me into Halloween
Friends softened the blow
