A Lost and Found List

"
Found:
1 Foot
Long enough
To cross the line

2 ounces
Enough Courage
For this day

3 loaves
Not enough to
Feed the hungry
Without the fishes

4 Stars
Part of a Constellation
Floating in the black sea

5 Bombs
Exploded around
Reasons not important

6 Rejection letters
polite but firm

7 Car parts
All broken

8 More resolutions
Trying to help the poor
All failed

9 Dandelions
Growing on the lawn
Floating puffy seeds
near and far

10 Lilacs
Whose purple fragrance
Wraps spring into summer

rejection letters, polite but firm...

i like that..

i am remembering one i got...handwritten , had one word in quotation marks..

"nope"

wish that had gotten lost...how flip...

my foot has been long enough to cross many lines many times...and i probably wish it had been shorter more often than not.

another really good piece...i like the analogies you make here.
