ON THE COOL SIDE

by Lawrence J. J. Leonard

I got a Telegram it read: “Already answered.“
We know you know these things
come down from above
But see, the Message was supposed to be a question:
“Say, do you know the meaning
or the reason
for love?”

Memories returning

by Lawrence J. J. Leonard

You said you had a question about the way we live
explaining that there was a girl you knew long, long ago
who used to walk with you to school.

She always talked about her house.

She revealed that her bedroom had no windows.

 Then one day you went to visit her there
and saw for yourself.
