Sandra’s Poetry
Happily Ever After
Once upon a time
a sweet girl
and a handsome guy
fell in love.
One beautiful day,
they got married
and took a honeymoon
in the land of the dragon,
China.
Visiting the Great Wall of China,
Butterfly Valley,
and the Forbidden City
was a trip to remember.
They went home
And lived happily ever after.
A Long Journey
A Long Journey
By Sandra Corning
G- is for gentle
L- is for love
E- is for eternity
N- is for nice
And
S- is for smiley
A- is for awesome
N- is for neat
D- is for dynamite
R- is for real friend
A- is for artistic
That’s why we have been married for 31 years.
We love each other,
Two peas in a pod.
A Piece of Peace
Dark blue and speckled
with endless shining stars,
the clear night calls me to the beach.
Music playing in the background
joins a chorus of waves crashing ashore.
I take a seat on the warm sand
and gently rub my aching feet.
As my friend sits down beside me,
all my pain is quickly replaced
by a quiet joy.
My Special Life
My brother Mark takes me
wherever I have to go.
My sister Kathy
makes me laugh and smile.
My brother Steve gets me
anything I need at the condo.
My husband Glen
makes me feel safe.
My friend Emily and
her dog Howler
are an inspiration.
My friends and family
make my life worth living.
Lovebirds
We met at work
and quickly bonded.
Our wedding day was
the best day of my life.
He makes me feel that
I’m someone special.
He is a kind, loving,
gentle man.
A wonderful listener,
a safe haven.
My husband of thirty years,
the love of my life for eternity,
Glen.
Wonderful
Going to the beach,
camping with friends.
Watching cotton candy clouds,
a fresh breeze playing with our hair.
Feeling quiet and relaxed.
