Staying Afloat

Message in a bottle underwater

STAYING AFLOAT

I’m just a
Yankee, doodling in
a sea of
southern belles…
My only comfort is found
in this old bottle.

Other Side Of Passion

OTHER SIDE OF PASSION

Reeling from
the fevered feeling
as if on
sun’s distant
horizon, she’s too numb to
see receding facts.

Flamingo Dance

Flamingo Dance by Elizabeth

FLAMINGO DANCE

A twist of
the kaleidoscope
turns pinks, blues
and yellows
into dancing flamingos
in front of my eyes.
