Theresa Ann Moore Poems

If I thought tomorrow would never come
what would I do with the rest of my today
Would i sit and wallow in despair and grieve
That's not for me… I would simply pray
...

Mindful neutrality
It is a quality
that stabilizes mentality
...

Upon a street called Michigan Ave.
I traveled as I often do
Prepared to have a family rendezvous
...

Upright ears listening
For the slightest sound…
The hum of bee wings
Car doors closing
...

You joyfully arrived early this morning grinning with delight
June… you are my most favorite month for many reasons
Your presence brings cheers as frigid nights take flight
Your warmth and gentle ways start the summer season
...

As we age…we continue to live
While hours filter through a sieve
Thoughts dim as false teeth chew
The hour glass flips... and old is new
...

I held my breath and prayed that all would be well
Your belief in yourself, is something I loving adore
Today I came upon a realization that astonished
You’ve grown into an adult … destined to explore
...

Today there was something I wanted to share
I turned to speak to you, but you weren’t there…
A vacancy was noticeable in your favorite chair.
...

You will always be older
Than your younger brother
For years you towered over
Leading… you did not hover
...

After winter’s thaw, life magically resumes
At first just a small swell, then a big burst
Suddenly the glorious sway has fragrant blooms
Apple blossoms satisfy the buzzing bee’s thirst
...
