Ana Monnar Poems

What will this Blue Moon bring me this
Saturday, July 31,2004?
I can imagine a date with my dogs
Watching Law and Order after closing the
...

Ever been crabbing from a pier or a mud bank
in Maryland, Delaware
Perhaps from a beach or a boat
The blue crabs totally unaware
...

Some people get a kick out of putting people down
Their parents should have told them,
“Say something nice and don’t make them frown.”
Offer nice words to make citizens feel like a gem
...

One sundown on a double date
Two young men and two nice sisters
All four went out in the same car
They arrived to see a movie
...

Being patient is a virtue
So relax, slow down and be patient
“I know, I know, I told you today, but I wanted
it yesterday! ”
...

Our love is a jig-saw puzzle
Complicated in many ways
Built with patience, and devotion
Passion bursting awake with blaze
...

Icy water and dense fog
Mostly boating – no swimming
Okay to read by the log
Or close your eyes while dreaming
...

A bungalow door stood open wide
Inviting the wind and a humble heart
The man entered wishing for a family and home to reside
Yet no obligations did he wish to start
...

Of course you do not believe those lies
What is sad is that he thinks the world does
Is he ignorant or is he wise
It’s easier to ignore and not make a fuzz
...

Shimmering moon staring at the
whirling wind, protecting crucial
guests weathering the storm, seeking shelter
or leaving town
...
