the storm I created
she broke into this world
a storm wrapped in pink blankets
the daughter that borrowed my eyes
my temper
my frown
my tendency to stand
at the edge of shadows
what else could we do but spark?
squarin up over nothin and everythin
we catch fire the same way
quiet and hot
both refusin to bend or break
same flush in our cheeks
I still see her as four
hands on her hips
determination set
in the corners of her mouth
small voice deliverin judgement
speakin fluently in...
a storm wrapped in pink blankets

I still love you
You left me, but I still stay by you,
You slapped me, yet I reach for your hand too.
You never said you loved me, it’s true,
But still, in my heart, I whisper I love you.
You called me names, yet I laugh it away,
In shadows of hope, I choose to stay.
You never call for me, that's how it may be,
Yet I write you my words, in silence, you see.
You slapped me, yet I reach for your hand too.
You never said you loved me, it’s true,
But still, in my heart, I whisper I love you.
You called me names, yet I laugh it away,
In shadows of hope, I choose to stay.
You never call for me, that's how it may be,
Yet I write you my words, in silence, you see.

The Most Beautiful Of All Memories!
Magic moments in my life
Have been rare, and scarce
But helping with my daughters birth
Was beyond all compare
More wonderful than a summers day
And it's myriad beauty on display
Our daughter, was an anniversary gift to one another
A gift of love, like no other
She'[s brought sunshine
Into a cold, and icy March prelude
Light as a feather, and at first subdued
I'm still in awe, and wonder
At an amazing midwife so true
Who helped me, help my partner through
The culmination, a few days shy of thirty seven weeks
The early...

be the fire
in the early hours of morning
as dawn warmed the darkened sky
I stood transfixed
when a single star flashed brightly
lighting up a fading night
leaving me deeply moved
thoughts whispering softly
stirring in my mind
what would I say to you
if this was my last day
what wishes would I cast your way
what images would I press into your upturned palms
kissing & imbuing them with all my hopes
infusing your dreams
willing them into being
and then it occurred to me
I don't want you reading an unsent...

My Daughter Is Not Here To Give You Your Present
Merry Christmas. I'm sorry that my
daughter is not here to give you
your present. I've decided
to save her the trouble
and do that for her.
So, don't you want
to strip and
hump me
now?

POWER OF UNITY
For sure we all can remember a time in each of our lives 🥰 when we use to connect on so many ways of subconscious, thoughts on the things that truly matter to us as family and friends. But yet it's changed from the deepness into negativity, of what was created by those before us, when we weren't even born into the world 🌍 For sure as I keep those thoughts as motions, pictures of images of good times with the elders, of the truth seekers of our family roots. I remember so many stories about the deepness of the truth, there was a time when we had laugh together and moments when...

Prize Bird
Well, good morning, Tweety Bird,
Such a pleasant surprise,
With your mother's sharp wit,
And, lo, myself in those eyes.
How I've loved your sweet song,
Both the coos and the cries,
For the year it has been,
As the time swiftly flies.
In the contest I've invented,
Among fathers worldwide,
I've won loveliest daughter,
But you are my prize.
Such a pleasant surprise,
With your mother's sharp wit,
And, lo, myself in those eyes.
How I've loved your sweet song,
Both the coos and the cries,
For the year it has been,
As the time swiftly flies.
In the contest I've invented,
Among fathers worldwide,
I've won loveliest daughter,
But you are my prize.

In My Mind the Years I Missed
In My Mind the Years I Missed
It was her very first day of school
I walked with her to school that day
And she held my hand all the way
We walked together quiet and sad
A little girl and her loving dad
Into the school, I led
But I almost cried when she said
“Daddy, Daddy, please don't go
Please don't leave me alone here
I'll miss you if you go”
And I might need you; can't you stay
My little Daughter, please don't cry
You'll be okay, so dry your eyes
You have me in your heart
We're together, though...
It was her very first day of school
I walked with her to school that day
And she held my hand all the way
We walked together quiet and sad
A little girl and her loving dad
Into the school, I led
But I almost cried when she said
“Daddy, Daddy, please don't go
Please don't leave me alone here
I'll miss you if you go”
And I might need you; can't you stay
My little Daughter, please don't cry

Hold my hand
What do I do
It's been thirteen years now
Now he wants to be a dad
I dont know what to do
Do I continue to hold your hand
I feel this one you have to feel on your own
It's hard when I've protected you for so long
Does mommy let go of your hand and let the pieces fall
I just want to hold it longer and protect you from having to feel it all
Look at me baby girl
Help me what to do
I am here look at your hand
I'm not ready to stop mothering you
It's been thirteen years now
Now he wants to be a dad
I dont know what to do
Do I continue to hold your hand
I feel this one you have to feel on your own
It's hard when I've protected you for so long
Does mommy let go of your hand and let the pieces fall
I just want to hold it longer and protect you from having to feel it all
Look at me baby girl

I'm not ready to stop mothering you

Maria Marlena II
She’s the ache in your heart,
She’s the tears on these cheeks,
She’s the sigh after a long deep breath.
(And the release after “sutyum”.)
She’s the trees dancing in the wind,
And the stillness that remains.
She's the black, defining white,
The flame burning bright,
’Til the last of its light.
She’s the tears on these cheeks,
She’s the sigh after a long deep breath.
(And the release after “sutyum”.)
She’s the trees dancing in the wind,
And the stillness that remains.
She's the black, defining white,
The flame burning bright,
’Til the last of its light.

I taught you to be strong
Would you have stayed
If I asked you to?
You left me standing
And broke my heart
You have betrayed
The trust you knew
Whom you were dating
Will tear us apart
Life had played
It’s tricks on you
But you’ll be landing
To start anew
========
I taught you to be strong…
To live your life
to find your home
I know you’re not wrong…
Still my veins are cut
Still in my gut it...
If I asked you to?
You left me standing
And broke my heart
You have betrayed
The trust you knew
Whom you were dating
Will tear us apart
Life had played
It’s tricks on you
But you’ll be landing
To start anew
========
I taught you to be strong…
To live your life
to find your home
I know you’re not wrong…
Still my veins are cut
Still in my gut it...
