Here Goes...
"My Ivan (2004)"
Floods of syllables rush through my head. A river is about to crest. Descriptions of love and loss-a stream of vowels and consonants. Words spilling out and rushing like waves from pen to page.
"The Yard Sale"
Open up the box
Reach inside
Pull out the souvenirs
Lay them out one by one
Price every item
Label "as is"
Present the memories
No longer as treasures
Reap the benefits
Collect Profits
Count the losses as gain
Youv'e chosen to let go.
"Climbing"
Take the step;
the foot number one
Down on pavement;
up on stair.
one,two three, four
counting to the top.

Good for you! It takes courage to put your poems out there like that. Brava!
I like the one about the yard sale.
