A Fibonacci Poem
Here
minds
crush life
Delirious
with fear of losing–
Don’t drive. Don’t ring. And don’t mistake.
Things About You I’ve Memorized
- your enthusiastic exuberance
- holding you before we sleep
- your faith grounded in life
- your life grounded in faith
- your turning phrases into rhymes
and making up songs on the spot - your hospitality that goes on and on
- your work ethic and support
- your self-deprecating sense of humor
- your healthy ways rubbing off on me
- growing old together
- holding your hand
- this birthday that belongs to you
