She lays on the driveway
In a desperate attempt to escape from her thoughts.
Listening to the stillness with peaked attention
Every movement slowing in the quiet, every goosebump softening.
Noiseless trees stretch out their arms
Calming the girl on the driveway whose thoughts cover
Every surface of her mind and of the earth, threatening its serenity.

Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.
