Passing Time, by Sharman Gill

Yesterday

we picked bright pumpkins from a

trailing vine of green

and golden maples flicked afternoon

light on your honey head of curls.

Today

we slog through pallid leaves,

you a bundle of fleece and boots,

while naked limbs shiver, entire

trees sway. And you point upward

into only grayness until

I see

A hundred birds pass by.

At Home In September, by Sharman Gill

When I step out in the evening

light, I find him, our blonde boy,

giggles and kicks,

puckered lips, blowing

handfuls of feathered seeds upward

toward tree tops and the reddening

sky. Wind-lifted swirls

beyond this red brick house.

A First Blooming, by Sharman Gill

Always takes me by surprise

Even when the season’s right.

How could I miss the tender

unrolling, the flushing toward

sun? I’ve walked this garden

‘round each day as I’ve held

you since birth. A part of me.

We are one, I thought,

until I stopped in color’s path

And wondered at the change.

Thanks Mom, by Berkley Walker

Mother would never yell-
it would ruin her voice,
so she would sing
when others would scream

Dinner time is one thing
but imagine a chorus
at your wrestling match,
or your cross-country meet!

But I will tell you this,
I never grappled better
nor ran faster-
than when cheered by a Soprano.

Thanks Mom.
