BRENDA BERNSTEIN: Portal

Artistic, Odd, Submissions, , , ,

After failing to buy limes, she gives up on the recipe,
____Goes walking in the park,
____Does a double-take at seeing a lime in the dirt.

Weeks later, same spot, another double-take:
____A single-serve apple sauce for tonight’s recipe.
____Organic!

Soon, she will learn
____Expectation strips portals of all magic.

BRENDA BERNSTEIN: Hello, Heart

Artistic, Poetry, Submissions, Touching, , , ,

Hello, heart.
Have you been here this whole time,
Awaiting my attentions?
I have surely, sorely, neglected you.
Not obliged your knocks at the door,
Too busy to answer.
Yet you arrive with grace,
Offering me a seat at my table,
Bringing me to myself for a few precious moments.
