Senior Ball
Formally over
twelve years of learning to look
good on this one night.
Mother’s Day
Undercooked pancakes,
misspelled cards, weeds for flowers.
Love makes them perfect.
Prom date
Deciding who to
take like negotiating
Mideast peace treaty.
Prom dress
In it she was arm
candy, someone that turned heads
unexpectedly.
Study hall
The play was about
them. His unrequited love
her indifference.
Long walk in sunshine
Dog is lagging yet
clear skies pale green leaves urge me
to linger longer.
Youngstown, NY
Where river meets lake
we stand as Toronto gleams
across the waters.
Lewiston, NY
Riverside village
quaint without self-consciousness,
where arts mix with charm.
Niagara Falls
Just water on rock.
And yet, sheer power compels
visitors to gape.
