About Charlie's Treasures:
The 2006 Poet Nominee for the Mayor’s Award for the Arts— Highland Park, IL. 

I live my life as a Jew, with Jewish values, and a particular reverence for the sanctity for human life.

I am socially adept and confident, but often somewhat reserved and formal at first meeting, needing trust to blossom. Privately, I am deeply sensuous and romantic, still believing passion and friendship are compatible entities. Yet, I am capable of leaps of faith, trusting myself, and giving myself completely and unconditionally, when love is in bloom.

My children are well launched, independent, and care about the world; but I would welcome younger ones again(grand children), in my life.  See what I mean...

WHEN YOU WET YOUR CRIB


what was it like when you wet your crib,

when you angled to one corner to dry?

I knew your message of motion without words,

your poking fingers, and toes through bars,

because crying was not your style,

nor was it mine.


we looked at each other and smiled,

not saying the words of love.

we likened our family gazing

to sagas of nursery rhymes gone by,

the singing and sing-songs,

the humming of old words forgotten.


and now I hear your cell voice,

from distant shores, seaside,

those sounds of you compressed

as thoughts of cherished times,

safe inside my treasury,

and pray your new crib is dry.
