concertina

stretching spring

into summer

Bonnie J Scherer

snow –

dozens of Inuit words

none easy to shovel

Bonnie J Scherer

moths nibbling on wool fingerless gloves

Bonnie J Scherer

peel after peel the onion still

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

one part goodwill

two parts love

stardust to make it happen

needles snap

while knitting a scarf

the breaking point

at which our lives

fall apart

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

paper thin

our penpal friendship

over the years

Bonnie J Scherer

*

crushing grapes —

the stain

of my sin

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

summer fling

a wild geranium

reseeds itself

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

the dish runs away

with the curds and whey

while the cow jumps over the moon …

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

sunny side up

other days scrambling

to find the light

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

the poet within …

a facet in the

cut of my diamond

Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

haiku poetry — arranged marriage with a happy ending

Bonnie J Scherer

climate change

debated — while the

baked Alaska melts


Bonnie J Scherer

Bonnie J Scherer

mending socks —

mom heels

a broken heart
