John Turnipseed Poems

Long ago and far away
I knew you in a familiar way
Now we're living poles apart
Regarding matters of the heart
...

Choose your words carefully
They are thoughts unfettered
Words can be tyrants or liberators
They can create or destroy
...

Springtime sprout leaps forth from the acorn.
Eager to grow and full of promise.
Summer rains produce a sturdy young sapling.
Strong and supple able to stand firm, against life's tempest.
