Margaret Beil Poems

The moon never wanted to eclipse
It was just Venus up to her tricks
Big Bear was evolved
Another planet had revolved
...

A flea jumped off my cat one day
It bounced off my lap and ran away
But just before it went hop
I dismissed him with a karate chop.
...

What it would be like
To have water on tap
To know somebody who really cares
Just imagine
...

</>The sparks spat
From the center of the bomb fire
Forcing the wood to jostle
For a better position
...

Every morning you avoid my eyes
You'd rather read my posters
You'd rather read my posters
Study shoes
...

</>Down at the bottom of the garden
Where the bluebells grow
We've got wondrously special fairies
That we ever did really know
...

Again he saw her from across the street
On a balcony
Or maybe she saw him
Her glittering spangles like Eve's forbidden apple
...

You knew me once
A long time ago
But now your just a stranger
It wasn't my choice
...

</>Your Tee shirt red
Long sleeved
With a Christmas thought.
Your jeans blue
...

</>The eye in the kite is watching you
As it flies above the town
Don't try to hide
And never confide
...
