TURNING TO REAL
ALL MAYBES AND OUGHTS
They prayed and
into inviolate ethers
suddenly came
ultraviolet feathers
delicate gossamer
wings of thought
turning to real
all maybes and oughts
turning the verb of may
to that of be
as surely as in May
.. to bloom come the bees
(to the Kinneys who were missionaries
in Korea)
EVERY GODPLANTED DREAM
Every Godplanted
dream each fantasy
reaches across
blueprints' bridge
to reality
IN MAY TO BLOOM COME THE BEES ..
As surely as
in May
to bloom comes
the bee..
they turn the
verb of doubting 'may'
to that of certain 'be'
(to S and J Everett)

A wonderful teaching poem. It speaks short
and sweet. CJ
