Doris Cornago Poems

A faraway place can be home
It's where you gain mementos
Meals on one table, small talk
On scenes, next destinations
...

Were you my heart's abomination
How luckier I would be
Rather than be tight as a fist
Grasping a gem of untold value...
...

My eyes are dry, but in silence

I cry out loud through fingers
...

As we did the other morning and many mornings
Nodding our heads, despairing over work but
Finding time to intersect at a crossroad
Your hand in mine, the other holding
...

Kidding me, you taunt me, threateningly
To pull my hair, and running around
Shouting, giggling, with me in
Dismay, wouldn't mind
...

Rain cleanses the earth, cleanses leaves
Trees towering over grasses, both
Dance gleefully, sight so merry
Distracts me, makes me
...

Not me but you spell out what's leftover
What things matter, what makes you
Shudder in fear, what causes
All these stopovers in
...

One day I'll just fly away with you
Never leave you alone in bed
Attach you to my sail
Make loops in the
...
