Theresa Ann Moore Poems

As I traveled, my senses let go
Suddenly, I came to a complete stop
A golden maple tree had overflowed
prying open it's tightly secured lid
...

Solitude of stillness in the night
invites the warmth of your love
as a shooting star streaks across the sky
igniting cherished memories from above
...

Heavenly soft dough is a must...
when making a pizza crust
Spread it out to the desired
circumference and simply admire
...

What works for one
does not necessarily work for another
When looking for a style to represent...
the choices contradict one another
...

What makes cotton candy so mouthwatering
as it causes wide eyes to make a double take
A simply spun confection that looks like wool
Sheared magic melting like sweet snowflakes
...

Preparing for a turkey feast that gives thanks
Getting the fixings for supplementary dishes that delight
Everybody prefers something different along side
I'm thinking about the tasty favorites that everyone likes
...

The leaves upon the maple tree
are tussled by the wind's gentle rustle
revealing a reversed dull underside
like cloth swatches caught in a playful scuffle
...

Anxiously waiting to hear the number three
It ends a sequence that triggers a tense pose
exciting readiness … as the adrenaline flows
...

There is a father who is unaware
of a common bond that he shares
In the heat of passion he bestowed
the gift of life a seed was sowed
...

Whether intentional or unwitting
we walk a path without admitting
It is love we seek and the pleasure it entails...
ending loneliness before darkness prevails
...
