we returned the shoes
she bought to dance in after
her last treatment

Shoes
health
Headache
sunlight crashes
into my bedroom window
headache morning
In Sync
when my back aches
my whole body bends
synchronized woe
🙂
The Cancer Clinic
Cancer clinic
a smiling clown hands each child
a helium balloon
Cancer clinic
volunteers serve tea and biscuits
courage by cupfuls
White Cane
at the street corner
a blind man prays for silence
tapping his white cane
Flexible
Just for fun…
stretch and bend, touch toes,
the trainer says, will do me good
in twenty years
I stretch, bend, reach for my toes
and hear my spine crack
Old Trees
oh, pretty blossoms
we gathered in our spring
the old trees creak now
