“I don’t want perfect
I want something real.
Something that makes
me feel.”

Poem:
.
hugs are for love
directions from above
kindness grows in a thankful heart
where serenity and peace have their start
open minds allow love to blossom
to share one’s self is totally awesome
at birth the soul is pure we trust
all we need to fly is some fairy dust
they say that a child will show them how
with unconditional love in the here and now
the best inherited from the family tree
love, we know, must always be free
love can never be duplicitous
faith begins with willingness
a generous heart bound with filigree
promises made with a guarantee
with an olive branch from a dove
hugs are for love

A poem
is never finished,
only abandoned.

left
gone away
nobody at home
only spirits rapping, tapping
alone

how much do I love
who decides when it’s too much
feelings in balance

Poem:
.
celebrating the holidays
historical events that we praise
a day for families to get together
always praying for good weather
for some families it is the patriarch
for others cultures it is the matriarch
hopefully the clan has a funny court jester
and in this corner the prudish aunt Esther
stories retold year after year
hugs and kisses, much good cheer
kindness and love makes it quite right
sober families never have a big fight
favorite recipes and desserts galore
keeps everyone coming back for more
children and adults playing a game
the winner gets bragging rights to claim
day is done, no one wants to leave
the time flew like you can’t believe
each and all clamoring for next years encore
memories to keep for evermore
