Say the Poem

by Mary E. Lowd

A Deep Sky Anchor Original; written on January 25, 2015


Say the poem when it’s dark,
Pick up the fallen star,
The ground rumbles,
Some wishes should not come true.

The Yellow Rosebud

by Mary E. Lowd

September 5, 2019


The yellow rosebud holds a secret in its petals,‬
‪Like a promise,‬
‪On the tip of the tongue,‬
‪Unspoken,‬
‪Uncertain,‬
‪Waiting for the moment when trust blooms,‬
‪And the words can finally be said.‬

The ocean waves
Wash over
The broken shells,

Like wind chimes.

Bright yellow stars,
A constellation of daffodils,
Bobbing in the breeze,
In my front yard.

Hedgehog Feast

by Mary E. Lowd

March 12, 2021


Mangoes, strawberries, orange, and bell pepper
A veritable rainbow of fruit to share
But what is this?
All round and prickly?
Covered in spines so stickly?
Not a fruit
This funny dude Continue reading “Hedgehog Feast”
