An ode
This is an ode
to the one who is dead
to the one we owe
for the life he had led.
He is dead
the man many women
would love to hate
and every man
would love
to have lived
in his place.
A life of sin he led
in his estate
where each his own
in awe of his fate.
Whatever
anyone
has said,
he lived his life
and changed our own
for better or for worse
this is still to be said.
But one thing for sure
he changed the world
from the confines of his bed ...
to the one who is dead
to the one we owe
for the life he had led.
He is dead
the man many women
would love to hate
and every man
would love
to have lived
in his place.
A life of sin he led
in his estate
where each his own
in awe of his fate.
Whatever
anyone
has said,
he lived his life
and changed our own
for better or for worse
this is still to be said.
But one thing for sure
he changed the world
from the confines of his bed ...

Riding This Cloud
And here we are
I’m flying high
But my feet want to run far
Away from what you may see
When you look inside of me
I only come with what’s packed inside
A lifetime of trials I can’t deny
Little by little I shed each layer
Yet you stay
You’re not running scared
Holding out your hand
You patiently wait
Knowing how much I hesitate
Finding acceptance in your love and smile
I’m thankful you’ve pulled up a chair
And decided to stay a while
I’m flying high
But my feet want to run far
Away from what you may see
When you look inside of me
I only come with what’s packed inside
A lifetime of trials I can’t deny
Little by little I shed each layer
Yet you stay
You’re not running scared
Holding out your hand
You patiently wait
Knowing how much I hesitate
Finding acceptance in your love and smile
I’m thankful you’ve pulled up a chair
And decided to stay a while

Morning Thoughts
As we've walked hand-in-hand
through the joys and tears,
We began with lasting friendship,
only strengthened by the years.
Thank you for hearing my hopes,
understanding my dreams,
For filling my heart with joy
and loving me without end.
Eternally yours
Nevermore
through the joys and tears,
We began with lasting friendship,
only strengthened by the years.
Thank you for hearing my hopes,
understanding my dreams,
For filling my heart with joy
and loving me without end.
Eternally yours
Nevermore

The Best Things In Life
I live a blessed life
I can say this because
it is positively true
it's not because I'm special
I know that I am not
Nor is it because I've done
anything especially extraordinary
I know that I have not
I am a child of God
and deserving of
the best things in life
I've come a long way
from the days
I felt I was addicted
to emotional pain
I found a t-shirt
at a thrift store that had
a special saying on the front
It read: Don't worry. Everything
is going to be amazing.
I bought it and I...

A Deeper Way
Did you say?
Every word that preyed on your heart today.
Caused your soul delay.
Did you let people know?
When your heart glowed.
Invite joy to linger,
Caress the world with wanting fingers.
Was the world your art?
Admiring the fires of creation,
with elation.
Did you tilt your head back?
Abandon all you lack.
And savor earth's breeze,
in it's whooshing dance with the trees.
Live like a voracious wind gust,
to the fullest lust of ease.
Each newborn breath leaves.
Every word that preyed on your heart today.
Caused your soul delay.
Did you let people know?
When your heart glowed.
Invite joy to linger,
Caress the world with wanting fingers.
Was the world your art?
Admiring the fires of creation,
with elation.
Did you tilt your head back?
Abandon all you lack.
And savor earth's breeze,
in it's whooshing dance with the trees.
Live like a voracious wind gust,
to the fullest lust of ease.
Each newborn breath leaves.

grace
I break a little in the knowing
wonderment of soul
escapes a breath
tender tears run
you catch them in your hands
little crystals of faith
I am a woman of hope
in the becoming...lovely
with a spirit of gratefulness
I give thanks
so happy to be on this journey with you
through the pain
finding the truth of it
inside myself I evolve more and more
into a woman of grace
you are more complex than I expected
how can one take in everything at a glance?
you are worthy of many life's...

Luna’s Allure
awoke from a dream
with divine gratitude
for Gaia’s
sentient gifts
stepping out onto
the dewy grass,
see it there
in the field:
fog flowing upward
from the pond,
billowing under
gleaming
moon beams
reaching out
for the stars;
luminous
in the early hours
of dawn’s awakening
levitating toward
a deep indigo sky,
curling
in suspension…
intrigued;
the brume dances
for Luna
in the twilight
with divine gratitude
for Gaia’s
sentient gifts
stepping out onto
the dewy grass,
see it there
in the field:
fog flowing upward
from the pond,
billowing under
gleaming
moon beams
reaching out
for the stars;
luminous
in the early hours
of dawn’s awakening
levitating toward
a deep indigo sky,
curling
in suspension…
intrigued;
the brume dances
for Luna
in the twilight

Fangelus
still in a daze
a blissful haze
subspace
slowly i get
back from the
trance, land
in his hands
my safe place
...Fangelus
gorgeous guy
excellent writer
filthy as fuck
talented poet
very intelligent
yet complex
three mornings
divided over time
he wasn't mine
Fangelus...
thank you for
Seeing me for
pushing my
limits quietly
the memories
thank you for
being Selfless
letting...

dropzone overshot
20 of 30
when she turned 70
mom announced she wanted to skydive for her 80th
to get the full impact of that declaration
you need to know my mother
bravest she'd ever been was defying her parents
marrying my father
(come to think of it...that's no small feat...)
2 strokes & a pandemic later
she's no longer as steady on her feet
she tires more easily
only 3 birthdays yet to go until that slated date
...it isn't looking likely
I wish I had the courage to go
...in her place
make the jump in...

from ashes to flames
this new
friend,
her generous
nature
stood over
my feelings,
hot
but resting,
her smile,
and kindness
fanned hope
into
my direction,
these ashes
burst
into flames.
