Stay: Poems - Paperback

by Arlene Weiner (Author)

This is a collection of new poems by Pittsburgh poet Arlene Weiner. A sample poem:

Fear of Missing Out

If you slept through the night of the meteor shower,

if you missed the eclipse, the aurora, the Supermoon,

you may still see the sun-shined spiderweb,

the dandelion in the sidewalk crack,

the raindrop making a path like a snail

on the window. You can still find the star

in the halved apple, brother of the rose.

You can see pigeons flaunt their bronze,

hear their murmur croom croom.

You can stand in the wind, fry pungent spices.

Feast on the unscheduled, unheralded, unnamed.
