People gather. They
Eat, drink, play and
Laugh. They are
Happy among
Themselves. They
celebrate various
Occassions in love.

Trip
Riding a greyhound up to
Chicago, I am insulted by
The billboards that laugh
At me and give me the
Finger.
Only One
Let’s just make up our
Minds that we are happy.
We laugh, bottle up that
Black poison, throw it in
The river and draw cups
Of pure water. We are a
Family, our only one.
Mom
Mom’s been around for
A long time. At 98 years
Young, she’s sharp as a
Tack, soft spoken. And
Mom is a little hard of
Hearing. Her love for
Her family and in-laws
Is real and returned
Back to Mom. It’s easy
To make her laugh.
And her gentle nature
Wins everyone over.
We want Mom to last
Forever.
Fishing
When my father took my
Two sisters and me fishing
At the local lake, we spent
A lot of time watching the
Bobber on the end of our
Bamboo poles. They rarely
Moved. Our dad tried to
Cheer us up by saying we
Were drowning worms.
That made my youngest
Sister cry. Those were the
Good old days we look
Back on and laugh.
