Dark clouds fill the sky
Words like thorns pierce my still heart—
Winter’s cold settles
Friends like stars apart -
yet laughter bridges the miles
moon connects our hearts.
Fluffy giant bound
Her name a summer whisper—
Charlotte, my small sun
Warm candlelight glows
safe walls hold love’s harmony—
school bell hums welcome
Dog's tail wags with joy,
Love leaps through the bedroom door,
Friendship feels just home.
Her secret love shows,
Each flush whispers "goodbye"—
Poop in twilight flows.
