Kay Bressner Poems

Lovely cumulus clouds they bring to mind,
a soft scoop looks just like the glowing moon,
or drift of winter snow that's bright and fine;
what magical, wonderful comfort food!
...

There's no excuse for how, lately,
I've neglected the garden; but
it takes care of itself fairly well
...

I think I saw a cormorant,
yet did he greet me?
no, he can't
...

4.

Hope is a raindrop,
a theorem,
creative thought
...

The monk parakeets do so much chattering
by the park at 5: 30 near evening.

Sue appears to have lost her favorite feather,
...

7.

As cobblestones stroll slowly pink pale gray
to southern Sunday morning's live oak shade,
nearby a fountain waters softest rain,
the cloudless sky blesses white flow'ring crepe.
...

With 'midnight all a glimmer, noon a purple glow,
and evening full of the linnet's wings',
I love to walk 'long Poetry Road
...

Little Sammy points

toward distant trees
...

We struggle some, so much as
to be a species endangered

In atmospheric changes; adaptable
...

South Floridian winter;
the season of perfect blue sky

Opening the doors
...

Ten bright daisies
big and little

Stitched to orange
...

I've found the perfect journal;
bigger than a deck of cards

Neither are the pages truly large;
...

I want to invent a new occasion
hereafter to be named
'No Worries Day'
...

19.

Shining strongly

Shimmering on the oceans
...

The color of calm sea
white sand
blue sky
All shades
...

The Best Poem Of Kay Bressner

Mashed Potatoes (A Vegetarian Sonnet)

Lovely cumulus clouds they bring to mind,
a soft scoop looks just like the glowing moon,
or drift of winter snow that's bright and fine;
what magical, wonderful comfort food!

I never met a spud I didn't love,
it seems that I have been this way since birth,
baked, curly fried, garlicky, crinkle cut;
can't think of any vege with more worth

Still I ponder who was the first masher...
could tuber have been rude, offending him?
was she p.o.'d at potato? ask her;
the likelihood we'll ever know is slim

But I tell you my fat cells feel grateful
finding mashed potatoes on the table.
