POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Dryad
Her eyes were born opened to the sun
Ancient waters sighed at her calm
Her first breath whispered
Nature’s eloquence
Her life isn’t abridged by a soul
needing to make sense of the narrative
To bring coherence to the
Constant drift of dreams.
Surrounded by stillness, alone in silence
a wood nymph
Dips her pen in vivid hues
writing on yellow flower petals
her textured poetic verse.
A tempered euphony
in time with her inner metronome
Never simple her symbolic truth:
Like a kiss flying quietly...

Golden Daydreams
A cool blue breeze
stirred a silent moment
Stones skipping across
the calm waters
- echoes
ripples through my past
The unforgettable song
Of happiness and regret..
– are
the heartbeats of
you and me
In the silent
ivory silken dawn,
flashes of life
-reverberate nostalgia
To immortalize our love
In the Cathedral of my heart
Precious images
awake the streams
of golden daydreams
Seashells and whispers
Ocean colored memories
stirred a silent moment
Stones skipping across
the calm waters
- echoes
ripples through my past
The unforgettable song
Of happiness and regret..
– are
the heartbeats of
you and me
In the silent
ivory silken dawn,
flashes of life
-reverberate nostalgia
To immortalize our love
In the Cathedral of my heart
Precious images
awake the streams
of golden daydreams
Seashells and whispers
Ocean colored memories

Synchronicity ( Entered in a Challenge)
A unique connection after
one chance encounter
Her poetry read
fractures the mind
Burns
Like Bright lights
Undoing darkness
Vanishes
to be reborn
as vapor
penetrating the
heart and soul
Her voice
aren't just words
, but
heartbeats dancing
in perfect synchronicity

Frayed Rope
I fell,
over the cliff in
this love affair
I held on to
the ties that bind
grasping for leverage
in this vertical
incline
while watching
the frayed rope
that entwined
my heart to his
unravel
one thread at a time ~

Unsurrendered
Upon a moment
Undetected
Like a waft of subtle flowers
Unexpected
The softness of tranquility
In this moment unpredicted
You entered unsurrendered
to clothe my soul
In peace

It's Alive!
Amid her storm
the viviparous came forth
a creature of her hate holding a blivet
that cleaved his dashing smile
in two.

Mock my Sin
Shimmering tide
shadow dances with the wind
thoughts consumes me
under monochromatic skies
driftwood passing,mocks my sin

Escape
The smell of urine and dirt assaulted my nose, as I ran through the dark, cluttered hallway. My hands still cuffed behind my back made it difficult to support my balance. While I heard his heavy footfalls echoing in pursuit and rats scurried silently before me.
Although I stumbled against graffiti walls, I didn't stop.
But I questioned, as I followed the small stampede, were they leading me to my escape or were they in cahoots with my captor?
Yet I had no choice but to pursue, as if I could hear the pied piper's song.
I smiled as hope sprang anew when the dawn of...

My Creator
The illusion of love
that crept into my bed
was darker than black.
In the heat of passion,
this Devil tore away my flesh,
and licked my bones.
Feasting
in his conquest,
to own my soul.
I became an oddity,
a carnival freak
to seduction.
Riding a merry-go-round
of nightmares and wantonness.
Never sought absolution
for my lustful need.
Condemnation, in the arm's
of my creator, is heaven enough
for me.

Sweet Nectar
Lingering
taste of lust
Licked clean
off soft petals

Whiff of Memory
Thoughts
that flow in
Black Orchid streams
Mimics the
pulse of my heart
the heat of
our passion
Blankets me
in a sarcastic

Forgotten
Lost
He wandered around aimlessly
in the blank spaces
and empty rooms
in my mind.
The Tormentor of my days
the Incubus of my nights.
Until he finally walked into
a room he couldn't escape.
There he ultimately faded away to nothing...
forgotten.
