Poetry
Page
It's been a while, since I've had a
poetry page on my site. I don't really know why I would make that
choice, since I started in poetry (writing them at 7 and competing in
them at 11...and my first public reading was a poetry reading at 19).
It's always been a passion of mine. Still, the poetry page is coming
back. I've got a couple of poetry books out there, plus a bunch of
poems that aren't published. For all the lovers of poetry...happy
reading.

The
Submariner's Wife
#7 poem of the year, P&E Polling 2004
When I see the
waves
Crash up the Beach,
You are so close,
Yet out of reach.
When I feel the
wind
Up off the sea,
I imagine your touch.
Oh, foolish me!
The roar of the
waves
Hides your laugh.
I hear it now…
But then, it’s passed.
The sailor’s wife
Treads up and down
Turning the rocks on the shore
To the sand on the ground.
Has the sailor’s wife’s fears
And fills up the ocean
With bitter salt tears.
