WHAT'S THIS?

Having been immersed in memoir writing for many months, I decided to write a small poem every day for a year to keep my poetic hand in. I've posted them to Instagram and facebook as written – where, to my amazement, people love them – but on this blog they are sometimes subject to later rewriting.

I find a necklace ...


I find a necklace in Vinnie’s

which I think is just what a friend

was looking for lately, to match

a particular bracelet. It’s glass,

mostly, and costs $5. Of course 

I grab it for her. If she decides

she doesn’t want it, I’ll enjoy

for myself the blueness of 

the beads, the intricate shaping 

of the central flower, and 

the way it catches the light.
