are dingo prey
the tallest of flying birds
red head, sarus crane
Mary Anne Norton Jan 2021
Whether masked
Or not
We cannot hide
May our true selves
Unfold
As we navigate
The year ahead
Our hands continue
To pen
Our hearts full
Of the beauty
Of Life
And may we
Just breathe
Mary Anne Norton Jan 2021
Poetry
The lava in
My soul
Ready to erupt
Cannot be contained
Any longer
Like lightning bugs
In a jar
Dimly blinking
In a jar
Until their lights
Went out
Quiet study-room

memorabilia and books

I think of grandpa
* inspired by an old black and white photo which I just saw
Mary Anne Norton Jan 2021
For the New Year


I wish you..


A pen of ink
That never
Stops flowing
Paper in abundance
A trashcan nearby
A dictionary.and thesaurus
And poetry nearby
A clear head
To focus
Memories soft
And warm
Experiences to write
About
New people to meet
And places to go
And love continuing
To grow
And when you go
To bed at night
Know you are loved
From above

A warm wish to you
And yours
Happy New Year
