Every Day

Every day
I am
the journey

Experiences
beautifully painted
like a dream
awaiting my direction

Every day
when it rains
to when the sun shines
I am
an artist
and life is my muse

I cannot change
what is
nor what was
but if I decide
to be
then tomorrow
will be
my design

Every day
I am
the journey
and now
is my destination

Lines of Life

Darkness
light
experiences

Memories
hope
life

Lines
deeper than thoughts
tattooed
on my soul
like a map of my journey

I will never
be lost
because I’ve seen so much
I’ve lived so much
that tomorrow
unpromised
is just the today to cherish

Darkness
light
experiences

Memories
hope
life

Why I Need the Rain

In my garden
I grow courage

In my garden
I grow peace

In my garden
I grow serenity

In my garden
I grow confidence

In my garden
I grow knowledge

In my garden
I grow understanding

In my garden
I grow strength

In my garden
Of thoughts
The path is often muddied
By the storm
But for me
To be the best of who I can be
I need the rain

Red Wine

Darkness
Pours gently over the day
Like a glass of red wine

My eyes
Slowly sips each moment
Of this picturesque elixir
As my heart
Listens to the worlds quiet

I could easily
Indulge too much
And yet never have enough
As my soul
Becomes inebriated
With life

And I wish
The glass to always remain
Half full
So that there would always be enough
Sunsets to drink in

The Sun's Goodbye

I've been kissed by fire
and it feels
like an elegant burn
gentle
as the butterfly's fluttering dance
and as warm
as a hug that says I'll hold you for forever

I've been kissed by fire
and it feels
like the breath of an angel
soothing
soft
yet awakening my soul
with an everlasting solace

I watched in silence
as it stretched
across forever
like a river of secrets
that ebbed and flowed with every color
of heaven
that was as deep and as beautiful
as my every thought

Time quietly
held the last vestige
of the sun's goodbye
as shimmering diamonds
slowly began to serenade
the darkness with what seems like
remnants
of the fading fire's light

He said he was hit by a train,
because he stopped
to think.

The wreckage was an iron cross
imbedded in his heart.







Deep. Very deep. And always, beautiful

The Most Beautiful


Never before
even in dreams
or wild imagination

Never before
the unimaginable
the most beautiful

Never before

I'm trying not to cry
I'm trying to be the strongest
but never before
has something been so real
so perfect
to make me so weak

Ten fingers
ten toes
with a perfect nose
the most beautiful

Never before
even in dreams
or wild imagination
could I ever hope
for you

My family tree was a weeping willow,
un-watered, unsheltered,
dying fast in raging storms.
The neighborhood heard the thunder crack,
and blow by domestic violence blow,
the willow wept.

Foster care was a brittle, barbwire cactus,
Aloof, neglected, forgotten by all
but the beatings of old ferocious winds
that scouted the desert plains,
hunting for the weak and vulnerable.

We survived.
Comfort never came,
but we had each other.

The once dying weeping willow dances now,
in breezes soft and slow.
It's branched arms conduct an orchestral overflow of love.
Our children are born
and play beneath the new green growth.
Wrapped safely in it's leafy tendrils,
we call it home.




An older poem I wrote.

But I wanted to say I am going to actually begin to publish now. Time and people have convinced me too.





It's about time you publish!!!! And I love this emotional piece

The Now

I watch
the sky catch fire
like liquid warmth
pouring over morning souls
to offer
their dreams
reality

I watch
every
night shaded secret
every
corner
nook and cranny
slowly being revealed
by the blinding brilliance
of the new day

And before
the rush
before
the to and fro
and noise
of a city alive
ravages
every moment
I breathe
and welcome
now
because it the only one
I'll ever have

I think you taste like lightening.
At first a soft tingle,
then a bolt,
that rushes down my body

I am on fire
for more.

That guttural sound you make
is heaven
breaking the sky -

A primal, baritone thunder
as deep calls to deep.

Umm, yeah, this one is, well, umm, breathtaking

Thank You and I Love You

I've wept
for the better part of my life
unsure
of what happiness was
or if I even deserved it

I watched
as my mother and father
struggled
to give me
what they could
what I wished
they would
have done for themselves

I've wept
for the better part of my life
as time changed them
and then
took them
before they were gray
before they were feeble
before I could give
back to them

In some ways
I see a better me
standing in the mirror
but a me still missing
something so deep and meaningful
so I weep
I weep
for the so much
I will never be able to say
thank you
and I love you

More

So dark
so cold
your touch
so hot
the light
is so beautiful

Shivering
yet sweating
as if it were raining
drops
falling in slow motion
we're
moving too fast
I'm lost
your touch
found me

I'm pleading
for
more
don't stop
stop
I can't take any more
but I want
more
with your touch
the screams
fill the silence
I'm still
shivering
your arms
are like a comforting
warmth
of more

Watches and sees
magic in each atom burst
into the conversation
partaken.

Birth of light is never
the comet you waited for.
It is growth and fire meshed in the volcano ruptured
to meet us where we wait,
looking up or down.

Tis smoke, tis lava,
or smoke and mirrors.
Tis futile in the majesty of atoms
emploding.

You and I stand at the precipice
of matter,
that matters

when it does.

Your time is not my time.
My time is not your time

There is no right, nor wrong.

Simple really.
If you believe we are one.


You continue to inspire me!!!!

I wish I had the words.

The words I wish I had.

Had I the words, I wish


it was that easy.

And silence speaks . . . beautiful as always

Life

So be it
if by chance there's nothing else
life's too short
to squander dreams
for the sake of what's going to happen
after all
what will happen
will happen
even if
we don't want it to happen

So be it
because the sun doesn't always have to shine
let it rain
even on the good days
because the flowers
need love to
and no matter what you do
you can't change
what you can't change

So be it
because well
life is life
and if you're alive
and you are by the way
you haven't a choice to but to live
this moment right now
after all
it's the only one that matters
