100 Cups of Tea
Part Two: Your heart is smiling -My kids and happy places
I don’t know
If anything
Compares
To a kiss
On the cheek
From a little kid -Surprise
Every smile is a small victory -Single mom hope
If I were
A piece of clothing
I would be
High waisted
Hugging your delicious waist
And flattering
Your beautiful curves
Like magic -Full length mirror
I wanted
To make my life
Like a perfect omelet
That would stay together
When flipped over
But instead
I made
A scramble
With bits
Of delicious -Chef’s surprise
When there are no fireworks
But small hands
Grasping your hair
Happiness
And soft
Soccer ball laughs -Knock sense into me
Weird poems
Breakfast Sandwiches
And whip cream
Soft memories
Of those
That touched my heart -Pleasure
Buds grew from her touch
On my pulse
She surprises me
Eyes a never before seen blue
On me -Woman crush
If you're enchanted
By social awkwardness
Art of body
Created by
Baby
Pain
And love
Like I am -I would want me
She served up
Her I have no choice
But not to fail
Meal -Just have to
I’m a wild flower
At the side of a busy street
Please
Get off the bus
Sit with me a while
Tell me -Calling me
Create a shy smile
Be there
At least in moments
Without promises
Sharing love
With mine -Inspiration
I see
So many
Juicy women
Of all kinds
I hope you
Don’t let anyone
Squeeze the life
Out of you
I notice
The way you feel
When he is looking
At all the others
And you are just there
Trying not to
Let it bother you
And most of the time
There is nothing wrong with looking
People are beautiful
But
If he doesn’t show you
Just how juicy
He thinks you are
I say
Walk in the other direction -I thought I was juicy
I have watermelon sweet
Strawberries in June
Wishes for you -Little boy in the summer
Rainbow baby
I hope
Your sweet days
Don’t disappear
Too soon
You are
My bright day sun
And
Your sister is
My bold night moon -Day and Night
I would love your cracks and bruises. -Stories
More funny faces
More love -Being silly helps
Everyone is an artist
Every day -To those that don’t know
I noticed. -Not just any flower
