Poems from Annette M Velasquez
Survival is
a revolution, radical
surrounded as you are
by all that would rather
snuff you out
- a cookie crumbled
- a candle
extinguished...
Blue-eyed
quicksilver Muse
what
mysteries lie
beneath your
gaze?
Agile acrobat
aloof and then
affectionate
softly purring
or pouncing...
Butterflies and hummingbirds
rainbow-hued, delicate and winged
they are like miniscule earthly
angels
they are jeweled symbols...
