two hearts.
two hearts
found on a walk
first, old stone
second, unknown
even if
somewhat dubious
never question it
every heart
has an origin story.

tiny and mighty.
tiny oak leaf
two inches tall
celebrated autumn
twirling flying
in the wind
just like the mighty oaks.

autumnal.
driving home at dusk
golden moon shines
through drifting clouds
light changes
moving into darkness.

halloween style.
this guy and his cat
the jack sparrow pirate from the carribean type
of the skeleton world
hat tilted back
a bit of drink
to keep him hydrated
his jolly roger
may have flown somewhere in france
welcomes all
relaxed and confident
not bothered by anything
seen his share of scraps
even being in a giant web
only having one foot
no hands
a cat with an eye patch
sitting on deck
of my daughter’s porch.
now, this mixed family
skeleton parents and dog
kids and clowns of all kinds
all ages and stages
everyone welcome
they do not discriminate
lots of hugs for all
love everyone to be at the party
outdoorsy types.
—
love my neighborhood
all are welcome

‘may everything you do be full of fearsome frolics and frightful fun.’

cocoa has a job.
cocoa has an important job
cocoa is in charge of guarding the food
cocoa gave herself this important job
cocoa has a craving
cocoa is motivated
cocoa will not
take her eyes off of it
until she is home
when the food is
safely in the house
only then
can she rest
not really
Cocoa will rest
after she has
taste-tested it
to make sure
it is safe for
the rest of
the family to eat
still not really
Cocoa must do
more that one test
just to make sure
it is really, really safe
cocoa is full
cocoa is clever.
