yard work and bike ride
Spanish practice once again
simple spring Sunday

morning chore cheer-up:
all summer clothes on clearance,
kids ride penny horse
turtle view walk
(kids swim free in Denver’s dream)
then neighborhood grill
tinker toy swing joy
with a dose of dream house night:
Saturday served up
All the Way from Spain
Cartagena dream
brought to me by bicycle,
fate, and Friday luck
Five Months Later…
joy for middle one
bed frame for her garden view
(and home for stuffies)
Night and Day
a new day has passed
in my bipolar career
today? just great kids
Spiraling into Control
after a draining day
with back talk on all fronts
i just want to laugh it up
at a simple game
between a spiral and a kitten
to spin my mood back
An Earful
to have someone listen
with eyes and words offered in peace
and make promises you know she’ll keep
and coo at cute colleagues’ babies
and smile behind tears we all so often hide…
it makes a Monday bearable,
a coffeehouse tea taste smooth and soothing,
a repressed voice feel fulfilled for the first time in years,
and a view into the future shine bright with silver linings
70 Degrees
ride along canal
to find new favorite playground
the March to summer
Reaching Forward, Reaching Back
my oldest rides now
while searching for climbing trees
that hold tight to youth
Serve It Up
a sunny March Friday
juiced with music and art
divided by a field trip
pounded by a parent teacher conference
squeezed between piano and happy hour
(tea for me please)
topped off with restaurant and workout
and the cooling creamy dream
of mint chocolate chip
for a sunny side down ending
to my never ending meal
