Outside the wind whirls.
Inside my daughter asleep
in her toddler bed.

When will the world be
good enough for our children?
The night crashes rain.
The morning is calm.
A young Oak still holds it’s leaves
strong against winter.

interfaith marriage
on CNN because of
Chelsea Clinton’s beau
What do these pundits
know of me and my husband?
I stab the remote.
Outside it’s humid
83 at 8:30

Then, turning around,
I open my front door to
the cool air of home.
