She waved at all the people
on the train & later, when
she saw they didn't wave back
she started singing songs to
herself & it went that way
the whole day & she couldn't
remember having a better
time in her life.
Songs to Herself
The plumber was digging around
in the pipes & he saw something
shine in the muck & it turned
out to be the soul of the last
tenant.
He gave it to me & I said I
wonder how we can return it &
he shrugged & said he found
stuff like that all the time.
You'd be amazed what people lose, he said.
The Plumber
The first time her laughter
unfurled its wings in the wind,
we knew that the world would
never be the same.
Laughter Unfurled
