Rachel Hughes Poems

Some religions teach that a women

Is property owned by a man.
...

About an hour and a half before Christmas eve.
My mother was laying on a hospital bed in my living room.
Unable to breathe.
The Dr. said she had pancreas cancer and covid 19.
...

Please be kind

All the scriptures and oracles of God,
...

V1

Jesus is the one who carries me through.
...

Word arrangements are a poet's favorite toy.
Words are arranged to bring expressions of emotions,
Like love and joy.
Like putting flowers in a vase,
...

Sometimes I get afraid to write my poem.

Afraid someone might make me feel like a gnome.
...

The snow is melting and going away.

As the chill of winter gets farther away.
...

I look up and see the stars.

And realize there not so far.
...

When the storms come my ship don't sink.

The strong winds blow I don't event blink.
...

When day becomes dawn and twilight falls.

Your beauty is your beckon call.
...
