poetry
5:30, Mama??
pooped out each morning
pup is tired of school days
only one month in!
Dashing
my middle child
has transformed into runner
from her quiet start
Learning to Love
the small sentences
of my Newcomer student
make teaching worthwhile
Front Range Burnout
a weekend hiking
is the only proper way
to enjoy summer
(And Love, Of Course)
with the alphabet
and a little translation
we learn a language
Bleed Purple
first Newcomer year
brings the joy of teaching back
at career’s midpoint
Too Soon
baby turns thirteen
surrounded by proffered love
that she’s always shared
2019 Mascot
no matter what thoughts
you have harbored about me
i’m a pirate. CHILL.
Puppy Love
even in the mud
the dog shows me endless love
unmatched for humans
