speaking cloak
o to exist in all parted
mending yarn
we close jars
looking for reflection
swirling apple peelings
fall graciously
over floor tiles
my sister`s voice
breaks in threes
from the receiver
filled with butterflies
" wait...come back "
laughter cocoons
I feel myself landing
like taking off my shoes
feeling grasses brush
against my feet
o my sister
we sit on ethereal...

Do You Know What Mom And Dad Would Say?
Robin allowed to
pose naked for an art class
inside her very own house.
That was before she
spotted her older sister
Patricia looking so shocked.

Love Will Never Die
On the night my mom passed I had a dream. In my dream was this beautiful angel with large pink wings. The angel smiled and said to me, " dry your eyes child, your mom is tired and ready to go home." NO , I screamed, this is her home!
The angel replied - follow me, there's something I want you to see.
She pointed to the left and there stood my mom in a field of wildflowers. She looked so beautiful with long dark auburn hair and not a wrinkle did I see. My mom was smiling and talking with my grandma and grandpa, aunts and uncles and my brother Joe too.

i’m sure; i live in awe
I live in awe
of every tattoo that will draw
on your skin, as unique as you are,
I live in awe
of all the beauty that you saw,
your smiles, your being so raw.
I live in awe
of every child that will soar
because you’re the one they adore
When I see your coming through the door
it hits me like waves hit the shore
feeling serene, so gentle and I’m sure.
I’m sure you’re my mentor
I know you by heart like a child it’s folklore
I’m sure I’ll forever like you to your core…

that 2nd step...
7 of 30
she stepped boldly off a cliff
eyes open wide
spreading wings untried
& my gods...
you should have seen that girl fly
in a clear blue sky she grew more confident
sure she could soar at last
but a storm blew in & she was caught in the blast
startled by sudden turbulence
she plummeted toward the ground
trembling & crumpled
heart thundering & battered
fractured wings curled protectively around
her
stability shattered
as whispers in her ear offered much needed hope ...

The Sisters Alvarado
I’m down memory memory lane…
That path is full of dead ends
& painful scars
that time can’t heal!
The sisters I thought I’d always have
but lost to life!
They’re in so many songs
that make me cry!!!
They are gone
with no future memories
to come!!!
The end happened years ago
but I can’t let go!
I have few people I truly loved
and my sisters are the only reason
I fought to survive…
Now I go on without them…
The common problem that united us
became the person that separates us…
It hurts to...

Who Looks Sexier? Me Or My Sister?
Hugh spotted Julia's new dress.
It looks like the one Justine's wearing.
His problem's telling them apart.

profundity of kitty litter
one of the most profound things she ever said in my presence
had nothing (& everything) to do with life
my little sister is a wealth of unexpected knowledge
but this statement has always stuck in my mind
we were sharing a house at the time
splitting household chores & expenses
among them...4 cats between us
she came home one day with a new kind of kitty litter
scoopable...which wasn't a thing until then
I watched as she filled the box
then frowned when she pulled out a soup ladle
placing it neatly in a jar beside the pan ...

The Days I Remember
I remember the smell of rain on asphalt
The gentle caress of the summer breeze
The sweet taste of fruits so ripe
The music that was your laughter
I miss the happiness in your eyes
when home still welcomed us

Happy Birthday to #9
I do not know, as yet, if you have heard
about the poet who rules the night
with chiseled stanzas and surpassing word,
like the sort that might give werewolves delight.
He champions the old and gothic whimsey
like Edgar Allan Poe, or some old ghost,
whose haunting voice is not weak or flimsy
like some daytime T.V. talk show host.
Oh, the time has come for all to witness
the genius of my nocturnal thought
and glorious linguistic fitness...
the kind, you know, that just can't be bought.
But hold! The bells have...

Her One Last Chance To Finally Get Some Sleep
My
sister
suffered from
insomnia
so much that she got
desperate enough to
strip dow, put on a robe and
follow a hot stud into his
apartment. And it must have worked for
she woke up the next day still in his bed.

Christmas
I remember the Christmas lights the best
decorating our tree with dazzling colors
so shiny next to the tinsel
the brightly wrapped packages
and my dreams of what would be awaiting me Christmas morning
I would watch all night waiting for Santa to come
bringing gifts for me and my sisters
I could barely stand the wait
until then we baked Christmas cookies
and made lists for the man himself
my dad was my favorite part of the season
he loved Christmas and would always go out of his way
to make it beautiful for us
