Do you remember me, Grandma?
These lilies are for you
Picked them at your favorite park
The one near Arthur Kill
Imagine she misses Grandpa
Night lights in vacant eyes
Drawn to sudden song from birds
Past war abducted mind
Do you remember me, Grandma?
When I was Little D?
Within your yard I’d cross home plate
Pretend to be a Yankee
And will you remember me, Grandma?
On this Easter Day
Slave labor tortured
We’re out of time
I watch you wheel away

A Golden Scheme
Posted in Image Poetry, Poetry Reading with tags Blog, dustus, Fee Easton, One Shot Wednesday, One Stop Poetry, photo, photographer, poet, poetry online, Poetry Reading, To Not Breakdown, Triolet on March 15, 2011 by dustus 
This time I might discover life
Accepting death a golden scheme
Well squeeze moist eyes; uplift soft sighs
This time I might discover life
Repeats no points for bitter pride
To not break down—my goal it seems
This time I might discover life
Accepting death a golden scheme

The Arrow Shot
If feelings could ever save me
Let it be right now
Birdsong evaporates to air
Your fall will not crash down
Life is no Titanic
Though barge in angles seem
Declining off corrosive walls
She spreads angelic wings
God, you think me simple
Love saves a human being
The arrow shot from Cupid’s bow
Piercing noble dreams
