Forty Bad Poems

By Sandy Steinbach

This book is compiled of random thoughts and poems that mostly got thrown into boxes and files over the course of the last forty years! Most of them are personal and not very interesting to people who dont know me. During this time of my life, I was quite busy as a loving wife, a practicing psychiatrist, a mother of four, a cousin to my nine cousins, a sister to my one brother, a daughter to my wonderful parents who died during that time, a caretaker to some, and a friend to many.

God’s only Question at the Pearly Gates

Did you have a good time? Did you enjoy my sunrise?

Did you love my trees?

Aren’t you glad I gave you freedom

And let you do as you please?

Alicia Comes to Town

Alicia’s winds struck strong and hard

On the shores of Galveston

And the ocean roared and sent waves high

As if to join in the fun.

Old men sighed and nailed their doors

And old dogs went inside.

No hurricane can scare these folks

Not even if she tried.
