Leap year day
Secretive. Works for
the CIA. Won’t say where
it’s been for four years.
February 29
Like the extra hour
when we fall ahead, this one
day a trick in time.
Live your dream
Today J begins
flying not yet a driver
the sky’s the limit
Sephora
Kid in candy shop
I dab on product in search
of my true colors.
Watching after 2 am
TV morphs into
loser land infomercials
for acne weight loss
Panasonic possibilities
Got a new camera.
What moments will it capture
in pixels and bytes?
Leap year
February’s haste
to usher in an early
March slowed by one day.
Lunar eclipse
Luminous suitor,
the moon dimmed by darkness’s
seductive regard.
When she’s sick
Teenager curled up
becomes baby J who’s glad
that mommy’s nearby.
