A new book to house this year's (and future years) NationalPoetryMonth's daily poems.
I'm writing once again this year. This book is my special event place for thirty special poems.

Here for National Poetry Month in 2018, I'm participating but life has not been kind in the last 15 months, so I'm not always in writing mode.

intrusion
in a salad of fresh fruit, a single
maple leaf, a perfectly etched portrait
of Martin Luther King, art of artistry
some dreams are more important

to love or not to love
should never be a question

nor choice
trees fend it off, they bend to honor
the wind's power, they laugh at rain drops
that feed the earth which can't forget
all things flow in all directions

a monumental traffic jam mars the human brain
allows reason and emotion
to bypass the heart
and alter its life
into the cantankerous mutiny of death



there is no either/or, only and
