Play There

Make a place for play there 
Surround it with see-through walls
With Welcome signs
For the range of races
And good games to share there 

Take time together there
Enveloped in everlasting stories
With marching little men
For the giggling of girls
And making moments long there 
 

Northern Light

There were three questions
I’d no right to ask
I see you wish I had not

I’ve a curious mind
The love-life-deep kind
And you instigated my thought

Interrogatories
I hope weaved with “Please”
They stream through my head, back and forth

The Which, What and Will
Remain with me still
For answers I’ll always search North 

Gold

I struggle to know
If, as a girl,
I always did just the right things

I shutter to think
When I grew up tall
That none of it mattered at all

I listen to learn
If time will whisper
I needn’t have any regrets

I wait and wonder
If the caring I shared
Imprinted my name on gold stone
