I have been sifting through my old poetry and posting on my Poems Page, but, I didn’t want anyone to miss out, so I am posting this one on my main page. This poem is possibly from high-school. I have not been consistent in dating my work.
Reaching out
To a world of people
Buttoned-up
In their mother’s coats.
Strange
They seem to have
Been wearing
Their glasses backwards!
Or they would see
Why I reach out
Is only
To draw them near.
