sherku: hurricane sandy

futility
is raking leaves
when the big storm
is known to be
on the way

sherku: gratefulness

Gratefulness
Runs deep
Revealing
Autumn colors
This birthday
For my love



For Dolores

sherku: mumbles

murmurs distract

mumbles linger

her words catch

ears, attention

bringing silence

Inspired during the recent Dodge Poetry Festival

sherku: question

Church pews
Narrow aisles
Safe space sitting
Recording forces
Movement to ask

sherku: fooling

not just fooling
with words
playing
with ideas
riding emotions
to live well

sherku: student work

knees bent
head down
patient pen lines
fractal patterns
poetry
covers her hand

sherku: to do

morning falls
gently away
one idea
in context
takes the lead
today's goal
