You know, at home I am
not considered a large
animal. Martin’s the
name, first cat in space.
You are the tiniest
creature I have ever
not seen. Can you hear
me? It must sound like
a roar. Is everyone
on your planet the same
size? If you can hear
me, wiggle around,
and come on over
for a chat, and some
milk.

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York. My goal is to create and share poetry with others who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.

    I can see that gigantic cat, and how alarming he would be on earth.
