Shadorma #66 “Teddy”

My old bear

Of long ago years,

Stares at me

From his chair,

Where he and his friends, try to

Comfort each other.

reliving childhood
on a brand new bicycle–

Thought Bubbles

Washing up, I’d a
sudden remembrance: water
filling up a tub
for playtime at Nursery–
some fifty-odd years ago.

Right Whale

As a child I thought,
What makes this creature so called?
Now I realize,
Hunters designated you;
Better to be wrong (uncaught).

spaghetti
spills out of the box
recalling
childhood games
of pick-up stix, tinker toy–
even tiddly winks
