One of my poems appears in this gorgeous volume, Silkworm 11: The Eleventh Hour. Silkworm is the annual review of my beloved Florence Poets Society. I am so proud of this book and our group, the members of which I am endlessly grateful to and inspired by, wonderful poets, each and every one. Here’s my poem from Silkworm 11:
“Just a Few Small Things I Like”
I like the way
you open windows
in any kind of weather
as if to say hello morning air
thank you for visiting
I like the way
I like the way
your fingers
navigate a messy ponytail
on weekday evenings
when you let your hair down
I like the way
I like the way
you say you love me
even when you’re pissed off
