You said that or I thought you said that
Or was it you said this and not that
I thought I'd figured it out but that wasn't it
Then what was it if it wasn't this or that
...

Hear the cry in the summer,
feet pounding, hands
clapping, voices shouting,
freedom is coming tomorrow.
...

I AM POEM

I am beautiful and wise.
I wonder why I question my beauty Instead of taking pride in it.

Weekend in Paris by Mr. Chip's
Couldn't speak a word of French
But Neither could you
We walked the miles of Parisian streets
...

City of the Eiffel Tower!
\City of Escargot!
\City of wine!
\City of women!
...

Elle me balance dans son étreinte douce et je navigue au-dessus
la brume de la ville troublée.
La musique est dans mon esprit.
Jobim l'a bien dit, une samba. Avec un Beat sexy. Et le crescendo de la castagnettes.

I wrote an open letter to President Obama
I did not expect to get a response
I got a call at home that my letter was read
I listened to the callers voice did I have something to dread
...

I have loved you

from that winter day.
...

First all is quiet
Then I hear a song

First it's quiet
...

Yes it's almost over and we are moving out the woods
But I still wear my mask and I social distance
And I play by all the rules
But I am getting tired also
