Four poems

“Ode to Compression” by yours truly

Oh, compression socks, compression socks.

You make it feel less like on my feet are locks.

I wear you and hear clocks’ tick-tocks.

“Moment” by yours truly

That moment when you are planning to write a poem but realize it is already written.

“Poet” by yours truly

A poet, and people know it.

If there is a garden, grow it.

Had more rhymes but forgot them.

Happens at times, ahem.

“Nuisance” by yours truly

A nuisance with a new sense

Of what it is all about.
