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
...

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,
...

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'
...

18.

Shining strongly

Shimmering on the oceans
...

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

I was on deck
of a Navy sub
It occurred to me
that I could allow myself

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.
