The house where I was born
Has been torn
Down now. The bricks and mortar
That gave us shelter
Are reduced to rubble and waste.
What the haste
Was or what the need
I do not know. They feed . . . more

I have a little bag
I hide.
Inside, a sunrise,
rising tide,
shadow stealing
cloudy days,
horsey neighs
and burro brays.
I have the buzz
of silent bees,
ouches from a childs
skinned knees,
jug . . . more

I look around me and see the accumulation of years,
of living and loving;
Old toys packed away, teddy bears peeping out from
their boxes,
books from every crisis we've endured all the way . . . more

I remember well those Christmas pasts,
for they were filled with joy and wonder;
Christmas caroling, homemade cookies,
hot chocolate by the fire.
Mama and Daddy secretive and smiling,

There are some stories buried
So deeply
Embedded in silence . . . more

Summer's last tomato has been picked,
and the leaves are yellowed on the vine;
I draw my sweater tightly around,
breathing deeply the crisp fall air,
remembering days long ago
when . . . more

Words are fashioned without regress
As they weave a pattern of hues
And paint canvasses with broad strokes
That touch our soul with daily news
A word unsaid can have affect . . . more

Where is the scene of triumphs made
Do not photographs etch these truths
Forever binding that we paste
In endless journeys of our sublime hues
Where absence . . . more

You are still here, deep inside of my heart,
And I believe there you will always stay;
Years ago, I never thought we would part,
But so much happened to drive you away.
I can still feel your . . . more

remembering
the first time
you held me
the look in your eyes
as you pulled me close
hearts pounding
pure bliss
your lips met mine
so tender
so sweet
enveloping me
with a passion born . . . more

FOREVER KISSED
She'll bring on a kiss
To take in your breath
To draw you in closer
Feel the heart in her chest
She'll bring on a kiss
An appetite's hunger
A playful bite of your lip
Like . . . more

Calling Angels
The graveyard glowed
that night, some lost planet
in the moonlight.
Not so strange a place
for tenderness or love. Slow
we walked, no words between us.
Filled the gaps . . . more

i want to dance barefoot in the sand
and fly a kite on the breeze
i want to lay down and look at the clouds
filtered through the trees
i want to run and jump and play
pretend i'm a queen . . . more

I reach out beside me
to the empty spot, still sagging a bit
from the weight of your body;
I shiver
in my aloneness;
I never knew this bed could be so cold.
If I close my eyes,
I can remember . . . more

A curtain of lighted beauty
rises with nature starring the show.
A land of enchanted scenery
of a brand I never did know.
Sometimes there's a pause
you'll hear frightful sounds of . . . more

I found myself buried in sand
head to toe;
Sand cuts, sand fleas
eating away at my body
as I suffocated in despair;
But you washed over me,
cleansing my wounds,
breathing . . . more

Time has relayed so many voices
And whispers mingle each wisp of air
Into a filter of reminders
That some may linger to bring us cheer
Gauge the measure of life between us
Like subtle reference . . . more

I will push with all my might
To do what I think is right
For duty calls and insists
When I get around to it
So many woes would unfold
Stirred my heart and seeds were sown . . . more
