Poems
Sep 28
in the heart
the nun had told the boy,
"say a thousand hail Mary's
and God will grant you
anything you want."
the boy in the front row pew at church, alone
always alone. he didn't want
a ten speed bike or a sunny day,
the Mets to win the world series or
to be president of this sorry country, to be rich
or not to have to clean his room
with the heart of a lonely kid
he felt destiny within himself
so he went for the gamble and spread his cards
leave it to faith
take the road
and he walked into soft light
and disappearing shadows.
