I’d like to share some of the beautiful poetry of Mary Kendall. Please check out her blog for more of her poems.
Over the past few months, a lot of my work has been published, but I’ve been negligent in getting them posted. Breaking from my usual tradition of a separate post for each journal, I’m going to post all of them here in a single posting. Separate poems and journals are both divided by ***.

a day will come
when we are the faces
in old picture albums
and no one left
to give us names

in faded black ink—
can you smell the beets
bubble and hear her
hum along

I ever knew & loved
romp in the tunnel
where I lie in stillness

Thanks for the introduction to this lovely poetry Michelle. Btw, tweet buttons aren’t working for me on many WP blogs so I’m using an addon extension to share blogs where I can’t tweet from. Everything is in the link except the tagging of your name. Sorry, I just cannot remember everyone’s twitter handle, lol. ❤
