no matter how cold
this tainted world can be
he’s here to hold me
A Bright Spot
no matter how cold
this tainted world can be
he’s here to hold me
poetry
Union Station
that blue sky beauty
that draws the world to us
through transportation
bleeds through their smiles
their too-cold impatiences
their want for fire
Denver can bring it
can bring them all to glory
to what we could be
Small Moments
a cousin Christmas
lined up for birth order laughs
growing up too fast
(They Were Excited)
we’re practical here
hoping LL Bean Santa
will hold till college
The Real Gifts
nothing brings magic
like five lined-up granddaughters
ready for Christmas
Circle of Hope
Lucky Charms wins hearts
tolerant menagerie
of “starved” frenemies
Puppy’s First Christmas
ugly sweater pup
ready for holiday fun
as long as there’s food
Still Holds Them
my teen girls cherish
our holiday traditions
cookies. candies. love.
never a year missed
as friends and family take turns
giving all colors.
Proud Mama
my actor, artist
my sculptor, my filmmaker
my youngest daughter
Worth Its Weight
top notch medicine
provided by his union
workers working win
