2020
Sometimes things just happen that we are clearly not supposed to understand.
When did life become about the why me, rather than the why not me?
When you make a choice between right and wrong and all you are used to in life is making choices for everyone else,
it becomes quite an education that you have lived your life for others without noticing you never learned to live it for yourself.
I want to live my life, my way and only make decisions based upon what is best for myself.
Is that self indulgent or self preservation or simply self discovery?
I make So many...

In the Air
My love is always there
hanging in the air
Lingering in your mind
Feeling the gentle kiss
Having sent the rain to touch your lips
Or the words I will speak
to watch you shed your cloak,
becoming naked and free
Igniting the beast you hold back
to be free in the presence of me
You'll find me by the fire,
naked, as my eyes become wild with desire
Making love to each other with such passion
that all that remains is ash
and coals flickering in the dusk
While our scent lingers in the air
hanging in the air
Lingering in your mind
Feeling the gentle kiss
Having sent the rain to touch your lips
Or the words I will speak
to watch you shed your cloak,
becoming naked and free
Igniting the beast you hold back
to be free in the presence of me
You'll find me by the fire,
naked, as my eyes become wild with desire
Making love to each other with such passion
that all that remains is ash
and coals flickering in the dusk
While our scent lingers in the air

Objects of Virtue
Will he paint me with his words
like the iridescent colors of the moonlit snow,
shining light into my shadows
in the darkness before dawn?
Will he place his easel on my mountain
as my peaks crumble under the fervor of the stroke of his brush?
Will he use the colors of the sunrise
and see my light
like the sheen of a pearl
and pluck me from my shell?
Will he paint me gently and capture my fragility
leaving him to see that my beauty is the least of me?
Then and only then I can be certain that I have been seen.
I...

Gaia
Breathtaking is the man who roams the earth
in search of his truth to renew his broken spirit.
He steps on mirrored stones while reflecting his disregard and disdain for lack of loving our mother earth and her children.
and her shores welcomed him home
Reborn is a man with knowledge to plant his garden and weep for the death of his harvest when he has no food to feed.
and she seeds for his spring
Honesty is the man that asks no gifts but labours for dead wood and stones to give to those without shelter.
and she gives rapture to the volcano

Hope
I love you.
I love you with everything that I am.
We have not come this far to keep failing.
I love you unconditionally.
There are rules in life that I will not tolerate being broken in our home or yours.
That doesn't mean I don't have unconditional love for you.
You are exactly where you are meant to be and you know this.
When you understand why I needed you to realize that the gravity of your actions have consequences, then you can start to repair the damage you have created.
I cannot do it for you.
And I believe in you to know that you will...

His Gift
Thank you for never faltering from your authentic self
You are an incredibly gifted, important and genuine human being. Humorous and articulating to me in a truth I have never experienced.
The vast majority of the knowledge you freely shared gave me a perspective on the world stage I did not know I lacked.
You were beautiful and eloquent in how you share your knowledge to someone that craves to be taught the truth of being human. And not once did you stray from your conviction to illuminate your subconscious process moving you so far forward that it would take years of...

Beautiful You
You are beautiful just how you are.
Do you know that? Do you believe it?
You should.
There is no one like you. No one that loves like you.
No one who cares like you do. Empathetic people are as rare as you are.
You are not a representative of what you did yesterday,last week or 100 years ago.
You are the only you that exists today, right now.
Be kind to yourself. Love yourself. If you don't know how, ask and I'll teach you. I know what it is like to be alone with no one to turn to. I know what it feels like to feel unworthy of love. But,that's just bull...

Denver
Traveling through the airports this time of year has changed dramatically compared to past years
I see angry snowbirds and whining adults bitching that "this is wrong"and "that is wrong" or "how stupid", "why do they have to make it so difficult".
It's your freedom to fly, it's a privilege and is not a necessity.
I am currently stuck in Denver until tomorrow morning.
Not because of the weather. Because shit happens. I can't wait to see my daughter when my rerouted flight shows up and lands where we live.
If you're flying in the future, especially during the...
