Do you write the words
or do they write you
Are the feelings tattered
or something new
Do you speak in tongues
or in muted silence
Are the moments sacred
or void of credence
Do the questions answer
themselves in time
Do the phrases mingle
but never rhyme
Do the reasons falter
excuse to reign
Do the moments linger
—tomorrow framed
(Newtown Square Pennsylvania: April, 2022)
Giving All
Write,
like you don’t need the money
Sing,
like you’ll never be heard
Live,
like the moment is ending
Love,
like a baby’s first word
(Dreamsleep: April 2022)

Dear Kurt,
• “The Reasons Falter”
You’ve raised the bar with the great questions you’ve posed. Much to ponder upon. I love the way your poetry challenges its reader to think beyond expectations and not to hesitate.
• “Giving All”
I shall give it my all. I will ‘Write’…I will ‘Sing’…I will ‘Live’…and most most of all, I will ‘Love’. Thank you for your continued support and inspiration.
Laura🌻
Thanks again, Laura
