JoAnn McGrath Poems

Ethan


How can one so small...
...

Sometimes a person feels
taken advantage of
Be it the work place
A friend or your Love
...

I have hiccups in my heart
So say the doctors that are smart
A different syncopation
Not disrupting circulation
...

Well your 17 now
and it will be your senior year
How time has flown by
the memories are so clear
...

I keep returning to this door
knowing what's in store
because I've been here before
My memories are so clear
...

'All my foes whisper together against me;
...

Here's a story from my past.
It was my first born son to come at last.
It was tradition in my husband's family,
that a bet be placed on the birth of the baby.
...

Baffled and bewildered
Unwielding weights
...

I'm not quite sure it's a 'Circle' of friends.
...

People made fun of me.
It use to be songs I'd repeat.
I'd hear a word or phrase,
then match a song halfway
...
