Little Things
Sons of Noise say,
“You shouldn’t talk.”
Chinese girl, hard wood,
wrapped in an orange blanket,
rests between shifts at work.
A man holds a golden egg yolk
in his spoon
and tosses it away.
A. Michele Leslie is a poet and playwright who lives in Minneapolis with her husband, David, and two cats.
Thank you, Michele, for reminding us of "the little things" in life. Nice poem....very nice.

Dear Michele -
ReplyDeleteThis may be one the most original pieces I have ever read. To throw out the yolk - the little things we often dismiss and discard.
Just beautiful,
Kathy
