Serious Poems
The Photo
We have been asked
to love one another,
treat each person
as our sister or our brother.
What Matters
I thought it mattered
so I hung on tight.
I thought it mattered
so I gave a good fight.
Where?
The Rose Decided to Bloom Today
The day had been hot,
The sun beat down
I gave it all I got
Digging the hard ground.
Opposing Forces
Lies
Why I like Memorial Day
It’s a ritual of the living.
We set aside a time to remember.
First, those who have fallen
defending freedom.
Then the others.
Two Feet on the Ground
My grandma always said,
“I’ve got two feet on the ground,
“I can do anything anyone can do.”
She barely stood five feet
though she claimed five-two.
Chandelier by Sia
There is no reason I should connect with this song.
At first, I didn’t. I didn’t even notice it or pay attention to it when it first came out. Until one day I listened to the lyrics because I was curious. What is she singing about? I thought. Oh, she’s singing about alcohol abuse from the perspective of an alcoholic. Yeah, I can’t relate.
