tight in their friendship
doubles their like ability
for neither is relentless
in their honesty of approach
they have their understanding
being forthright and honest
in positions that some
see as very critical
though they just tell
the history, the present
or what maybe will be

south of the border
they came to visit or to stay
sending money earned
to family members
miles away
living in another country
learning a new language
working often
to live comfortably
they remain
pivotal in a world
that wasn’t
originally home
-Jennie Nawrocki
debating inside
the ability
left within
willing to strive
for more
than what
is normal
though extremely
creative in everyway
mind remains
untapped of suggestions
produced within
for expression today
-Jennie Nawrocki
crazy completely crazy
however the word is termed
doesn’t define
someone who
takes chances on things
out of the ordinary
for inventions made
science discovered
perhaps possibly
came from people
deemed crazy

never alone
always had your
gives and takes
getting me
through the day
relied in everyway
on that support
now facing
constant mockery
you left me
for my inadequacies
especially my
inner strength
was missing
now watching
It all fall apart
saddness overwhelms

history reminds
of what was
we think was
supposed to occur
what should

repeating to yourself

conversing about
seemingly things of
non importance
laughing, smiling
straight faced
although all
with unending
interest consumed
the night
lasted as
though time
was non existent
leaving only
words of
see you soon
echoed within

t t t t t t t t t t’s
two simple lines
together tough
though thoughtful
tinkering braids
tonight they

caught between
mights, ifs and
real events
planned or
completely spontaneous
the result
remains unsure
for self confidence
in the situation
is forever gone
-Jennie Nawrocki
to walk in someone’s shoes
garners the fact that they
are extremely different
than you, that they
have the same rights of others
to be who they want
an individual, a family
of which they define
as living their lives
just as we have
there is no need to seem
intrusive or assume
we are like them for
we understand each
are individuals without
need for constant
explanation just knowing
we all have our
own style and preferences
