Lying on the ground for weeks
slowly turning brown, slowly decaying,
Willie and his friends on a downward spiral,
the old tree grown mossy and gnarled,
the daily windfall battle for survival.
Soon he'll drop and feed the birds
and the squirrels, all part of Life's
great cycle continuous and inevitable,
but, one day, a new golden tree and bough
for the seed of Mister Willie Apple.
Please let the remains of Mr. Apple know that his seed is getting spread by birds and squirrels.........he, as we, are all part of this planet. That should cheer him up!
Contraband Marriage, traveling along the hemline of loving after incarceration, is a love story written in lyric and free form, set in reality with a different ever after.
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
