FREE GIFTS
For
weeks now
I’ve
been driving by a house
on
Totowa Road
that
holds no distinction
except
for a vibrant flower garden
in
front and around the side
What
catches my glance
and
causes me to smile
are
perhaps thirty or forty
gigantic
golden sunflowers
shouting
for attention
Today
I printed
eight
sunflower poems
folded
them neatly
and
placed them in an envelope
decorated
with a scribbled sketch
of
a solitary sunflower
and
a note saying
I love them, too!
and
left the envelope
by
the front door
of
the house I often pass
Sometimes
I leave bereavement poems
on
a table at a neighborhood mausoleum
or
give copies of my chapbook
The Widow’s Song
to
newly widowed friends
Sometimes
I mail poems
about
butterflies
to
people who love them
and
regularly post poems on my blog
about
God’s love and His mercy
with
the hope
of
reaching those
who
need encouragement
When
the one who gifted me
with
a garden full of sunbursts
opens
the door today
I
hope my simple poems
generate
a smile
