Soft golden lights change

Reflection of the sun

As day fades to night

 

Tamara Mendelson

It is hard to hear

You speaking constantly

Silence opens your ears

 

Tamara Mendelson

Different isn’t bad

It takes some understanding

Are we all the same?

 

Tamara Mendelson

Open a stuck jar

That no one else can open

Power in that hand

 

Tamara Mendelson

Scars are life’s road map

The survivors have the marks

Of a life lived

Magic Chocolate

A couple of squares a day

Tryptophan feels like love

 

Tamara Mendelson

Thank your strong body

For all the amazing things

It has done and will do

 

-Tamara Mendelson

Feeling unkempt?

Your mother said “Comb your hair”

Don’t you feel better?

 

-Tamara Mendelson

Sometimes I miss you

The good stuff was pretty good

I hold on to that

 

-Tamara Mendelson

A small touch is kind
Quiet generosity
Human connection
