Phyllis Box Poems

He keeps It carefully tucked away
And seeks It in time of need
I've watched him on several occasions
Meticulously indeed
...

So many thoughts run through my mind
To keep them bottled up would be quite the crime,
So to the ink and paper I go
And hope today it will flow.
...

It was your eyes
The way you look at me
Like that! You're doing it again
The proverbial window into the soul
...

Six weeks early, weighing in at 3 pounds 11 oz
Our beautiful, bright eyed, curly haired baby boy
God’s seed had been planted and you were revealed
Little Box can no longer be concealed.
