Gratitude List
a change in season starts with a storm
unkind folks show us how not to be
singing doesn't need light
For these and many other gifts, I give thanks.

Healing
And the demons in her head
stopped long enough
to watch her dance
then slipped out the door
swallowed by silent light.

Marketing Yourself
As welcome as the telemarketer’s call
as fun as a slap in the face
more eagerly anticipated than
a door-to-door peddler
is your offer when I didn’t ask
My mirror isn’t broken
and while this may come as a shock
I don’t secretly want to be like you
or make you more like me
I’m happy with who I am
and accept who you are
Perhaps it’s time
to love yourself enough
to give up the need
to make me over
into another version
of you
