Poems are things you write when you feel things too big to say, and things too big to feel. Everything here is my own work, picked up from flashes and memories and small remarks that stayed with me. I hope you find something that stays with you

The Spice of Life

People are very similar to food
And please- I’m not trying to be rude

But don’t we all have qualities
That make us humans curiosities?

Some people have a very calm mood
And this is the blander seasoning of food

People that are angry and are ready to fight
Well, my friend, that is the spice of life
And these types of people might need advice

But I prefer those certain people
That are not too much on either side
They perfectly thread the needle
Of mood- and are never snide

And some are sweet but cold
And others are fiery and bold

Sugar and Spice
It all sounds nice
Until you pay the price

Sad people are like soggy foods
Their face is wet and so are their moods

Angry people are spicy concoctions
They don’t leave with many options

Excited people are warm and sweet cakes
Always giving- and never to take

And I just showed you a slice of the cake
That emotions are and what they make
