Bugs

BUGS

did you see 
three green bugs
eating coffeecake flowers
& squirming on bellies
as they danced to the beat
of caramel kisses
from here to their hole?

Thank you to the editors of The Magnetic Poetry Book of Poetry for first publishing this poem.

Even as a kid I've said it doesn't matter if I live to be 150: this life will be the blink of an eye. Poet, author, visual artist, photographer, educator and lover of life (though still working on the hard parts like Covid, violence, inequity), I'm completing a memoir inspired by and largely about dogs and people.
