POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction I am on a journey… with my work, my explorations, and a few sad stories. I travel with a suitcase full of outrageous blessings. I am on a quest for truth, beauty and quiet joy. I am an artist, a writer, an explorer. ~unknown~

swallowtail
reaching through reams
of darkness
your cocoon
a mere twist of fate
torn through the seams
of time
expanding superbulous
oh how you fly
on glorified wings
to the most treasured places
mingling your essence
in every flower
dusting your beauty
into the hearts of every
inner child
who longs to capture
everything you are ...
if we only understood
your short journey
joy actualized
into our bellies
where laughter
lifts you to the heavens
...

it's more than words ...
what does love look like ?
we are pieces
from different puzzles
of life
our hands don't always fit
together perfectly
it is an unconditional
abstract art to love someone
there are so many crevices
in our skin
from past
embraces into the animal
nature of it
clawing, embracing
letting go ...
when I gaze into
those beautiful
reflective eyes
I see it
thank you

Tides
she is caught in the
storm of her own mind
she sees the world
the beauty of another
summer
heat of the sun
her skin golden
which he longs to touch
he rests his head in her lap
to rest, feel safe
loved
with eyes closed
she gently touches
his chest
heart beats rhythmic dance
beneath skin
she runs her hand
through his hair
he is real
his weight apparent
breath warm, sweet
she stares at him
time passes
he must feel her gaze
yet, he rests...

she tries hard
to fight the sadness
some days
that ball in the throat
is hard to swallow
without extracting
a few
tears

one in a million
after loss
there are so many levels of grief
you have the initial shock
that catapults
through you
like a wrecking ball
where every fucking
part of you
hurts
in places you were
never aware
of
then there is the loss
of realizing how alone
in your grief
you truly are
those who tell
you in different ways
to move on
let it go
someone out there
is waiting for you
but, the experiences
you shared with this person
are unmatched in every way ...

sun, rain, droopy clouds, warm chills
parfait of mixed fruit

sunny is her mood
grey is only a color
lemonade kisses

she's always been the fighter
not in a physical sense
although her arms have
always been raised in defense
of anything that doesn't
bring her peace

something hidden
she sits in slices of silence
reams of paper lean in a corner
filled with her thoughts and dreams
marks nestled deep in cadmium
braille inscribed
waiting for the gentle hand
release binded
setting her voice free

overcast gray clouds
race to cover shades of blue
cumulus heavy
