SWIFFER
Frothy caramel machiatto topped with
Brown sweet cinnamon
Usually served with a handful of
Tasty dark chocolate covered coffee beans
Topped with a few drops of fresh
Espresso.
Runs forever on the stuff.
Fill up her cup and
Leave no room for air. And
Yes, she’d like it to go.

Maybe today will be the day.
I mean, we have been waiting for years.
Zippity doo dah will I shout .
Zoinks! Will I scream as
My feet leave and return to the floor.
Everyone’s rooting for them to do it.
Oh my. Maybe today he will ask him…
“Will you marry me?”

Caedoodle
Carry me away from darkness. But
Abandon me not among light.
Enlighten me with your wisdom. But
Leave me to acquire my own.
Ignite the fires of my intellect. But know, while
Every road intrigues me,
Tell me not which path to take, but
Help me to find my own.
Sue
Moments like these,
Are sure hard to come by.
Knowing he’s there for me,
Is all I live for.
Nothing else allows me to,
Grow in all the ways intended for me.
A fairy tale for a prince?
Moments like these,
Open my eyes to things taken for granted.
Caring, loving, being,
He embodies them all.
Remind me of that which
I thought I never had, but had all along,
Emptiness is no more, in this moment.
