AS A WOMAN OF SUSTAINS
What does it mean to be awaken within the deepness of your mind, as it is a very important thing to see and understand, that we are both love and understood by the true process of learning how to love ourselves. For what does it mean to feel appreciated by someone, who truly understands the importance of being love and touch with kindness and respect. For what does it mean to be able to be touch and held, with loving arms wrap around your waist as you become aware of each others tender embrace. For what does it mean to be able to miss someone, who has been a strong woman in your life, as the...

I HUNG THE MOON
I hung the moon
My kids room
Part of it bent
So it went
Bit of a jumble
I mumble
My kids room
Part of it bent
So it went
Bit of a jumble
I mumble

Under a Different Moon
Days are sunny
Skies are azure cool
The sea-sprayed air is warm
And the watercolor post noon disc
Appearing nearly in my reach
is Brighter
Rounder
Calmer
in this, my happy place,
under the island moon
Skies are azure cool
The sea-sprayed air is warm
And the watercolor post noon disc
Appearing nearly in my reach
is Brighter
Rounder
Calmer
in this, my happy place,
under the island moon

Taking Back Power
I won't go to bed crying tonight.
I know all your tricks cause they like what I got.
You cannot show your face
And yet, you show disgrace.
Supposed to be my fucking sister in arms!
Don't think you'll make it far from nooses you've hung.
Insecurities seep through your tongue.
So what if I'm ugly?
At least I'm bubbly.
The truth is you're the one who planted the bombs!
I know all your tricks cause they like what I got.
You cannot show your face
And yet, you show disgrace.
Supposed to be my fucking sister in arms!
Don't think you'll make it far from nooses you've hung.
Insecurities seep through your tongue.
So what if I'm ugly?
At least I'm bubbly.
The truth is you're the one who planted the bombs!

without ends
When my muse feels a bit weak
And I myself become oblique,
The only path to clear my head
And to start afresh a thread,
Is to think about a face
One that fills me with amaze,
Find the page scroll down the pics
Stay and stare from nine to six,
All day long the river flows
As ideas and muse grows,
Till I write up my first word
About a beauty none compared,
Then a problem will kick in
That while writing from within,
I won’t stop gushing amends
so the rhymes never get ends.
And I myself become oblique,
The only path to clear my head
And to start afresh a thread,
Is to think about a face
One that fills me with amaze,
Find the page scroll down the pics
Stay and stare from nine to six,
All day long the river flows
As ideas and muse grows,
Till I write up my first word
About a beauty none compared,
Then a problem will kick in
That while writing from within,
I won’t stop gushing amends
so the rhymes never get ends.

papier-mâché
the struggles of a poem rising
"Courage is feeling your soul go through a paper shredder and knowing
that the paper mâché that God will build out of your scraps will be more
beautiful than what you had before." Author unknown

bits and pieces
of my wry vernacular;

Light
I've lost some passion to the casket
where I've abandoned my flask.
Now I'm tasked with finding new
suns to bask in, for now I can barely
get a match lit, they say this will pass.
The night that never ends, well I guess
it depends. I could learn to adapt
or get a new pen, one that glows in the
dark perhaps, or one from a friend.
Maybe one off a pal so at least I could
send good wishes and late kisses
to those who defend
me while
I'm at my worst, practising curses
in the back...
where I've abandoned my flask.

Living in the Sunlight
Blue skies and sunny highs
The snowy mountain is out today
Hopeful crooning chorus livens all my senses
Barren branches line the street
reaching out for hope of spring
cradled in those tiniest of buddings
Vibrant grass of green refreshed by chilly winter showers
Distant honks of geese
later seen pecking in the roadside grasses
hope of nourishment for their flight
I’ll live this day in the bright
And keep this song of promise in my soul:
“I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not me
Even when nobody...

What you do
What you do
I breath you in and you fill my lungs with hope, expelling all despair, bringing only joy and happiness, though I can only feel you in the air
Just the simple thought of you can scare the clouds away and bring out the shinning sun, the gods knew I needed a Angel, so they sent me one
Dream after dream you are there, you soothe my aching soul, your kind words and tenderness, fuel my aims and goal
Inspiration comes from you, ideas just flood my brain, they get sorted into stanzas until a poem just remains
The heaviness gets...

Turning the tables
The Universe is a vinyl record
waiting for your needle self
to get back into its groove;
it will always be there
for you to make music
but only when you are ready
That's how important
each person is
and how much power
you've always had
at your fingertips
waiting for your needle self
to get back into its groove;
it will always be there
for you to make music
but only when you are ready
That's how important
each person is
and how much power
you've always had
at your fingertips

I’ve come a long way
The days are long and nights are short
I sit and wonder what I’ve done in this world
I often wonder, where the hell am I going in this world
I wonder as I see what I just did in my rear
What I’ve accomplished in this world
Where I’ve been and what I’ve done
I think about the good, bad and ugly
And wonder how did I do all that and I’m still here
I wonder what happened all those who I crossed paths with
Those who hated me and liked me
Even those who put me on a path to where I am today.
I wonder cause I know I’ve done a lot in this world...
I sit and wonder what I’ve done in this world
I often wonder, where the hell am I going in this world
I wonder as I see what I just did in my rear
What I’ve accomplished in this world
Where I’ve been and what I’ve done
I think about the good, bad and ugly
And wonder how did I do all that and I’m still here
I wonder what happened all those who I crossed paths with
Those who hated me and liked me
Even those who put me on a path to where I am today.
I wonder cause I know I’ve done a lot in this world...
