rummaging through my life i found these poems from an ED 47 class i took in january 1999

Things lost:
car keys, house keys, school keys
thoughts,
telephone numbers, addresses
dreams,
that little slip of paper I just had in my hand,
friends,
pens, pencils, magic markers,
hair,
combs, brushes, hair clips, rubber bands,
time



Wings flap out of sight
Swallowed by the dying sun
Tiny mouths await


Night falls
Gently like rain
The land whispers secrets
Of creatures seldom seen by man
Unknown


Family
kind, cruel
fussing, hugging, living
a place that belongs to you
Home
