PERFECT
fall has come to the city
air brisk, steps match
light coat fare
mini skirts flounce not yet embracing the change
street vendors stouter from layers
cart emits chestnut smoke plumes
pedestrians skirt each other avoiding collision
holiday season enroute
perfect family time

HOMELESS KIDS
Normal on the surface
And that’s where it stops
At school days end back to the shelter
Friends can’t come over
And there’s no sleep over
Cause we’re living far from normal
That’s what mom said
No place to stay no place to play
Since grandpa went to heaven
It has been this way
Without a room of our own
We moved to a shelter
‘Cause this was the only way
Missed curfew no bed for the night
Riding the train is now our plight
Danny ’cause he’s little cried all night
Mom planned it so we would get to school
On time for breakfast ’cause
There was not much dinner last night

D is for
Devastation ..that’s what it was!!
It was bedtime, almost. There was still time to play a few video games before mom clamped down and it would be bedtime for real. It was raining outside and the sound of raindrops pinging on the air-conditioner outside the window was my lullaby. It usually put me in a deep sleep and I would wake up ready to conquer my school day, at least that’s what mom said. That was the plan at least until until high tide.
All day I have been wondering what high tide was. Everybody was talking about it on the news. I found out that night. High tide is when the ocean push open the front door and come rushing through the house, floating the fridge the stove, the couch, the table, the bed AND THE VIDEO GAMES. It almost floated me!! But daddy grabbed me and brought me upstairs to grandma. Mommy and my big brother ran up the stairs too. Then daddy went back downstairs to save our clothes in the top drawers.
My toys were all gone. When the water went back to the ocean it took them with it. There must be kids in the ocean that needs toys.
