The foxes in my gardenThe foxes in my garden
Arrive at night to play
They had their fill of chicken
And so decide to stay
I crouch down on my haunches
And look into her eyes
The little one so trusting
She’s like her mother wise
I see how she has taught them
To fend well for themselves
But only Little...

marvelling flowersmarvel at the vigorous blade of grass,
resistant to the worst storms,
marvel at the dandelion, offering a thousand treasures
To the bees of the county,
marvel at the hemlock flower, which could
poison ten ancient poets,
marvel at the plant world and its millions
of possibilities,
marvel at the fern, which does not tire
that winter,
marvel at how the butterfly marvels
on the corolla...

Marlaina, in BloomIn gardens where the wild winds roam,?
Marlaina walks, and love comes home.?
Each step she takes, the blossoms rise—?
Their colours borrowed from her eyes.
She lingers where Gerber Daisies grow,?
With petals soft as evening’s glow.?
They blush in pinks and fiery gold,?
As if they know the hands that hold?
Their fragile stems are warm with fire—?
A gardener, yes—but so...

The GardenerThe Gardener
I thought, could I
shape the clouds,
Those ones on high,
With hand and mind
What greater blossoms then
would come to eye!? Beauty of
some rarer orchid, or rose?
Or just the tip of my protruding
nose, sniffing for scents where
they are not…? Botany my
heart!...

PACKING UP HOUSE
Packing up house
I do not like
Much, rather fly a kite,
Or go on a hike!
We lived in our first home
Almost forever,
But in the last six years,
The third and most traumatic
Emotion in life,
Was packing up and moving.
It’s all about enduring!
This home was where
Our children grew up,
Graduations, celebrations,
Happy moments and sad
Where our parents died,
Where our hearts sadly...

The Smile of GodotIn an instant all will vanish
Separated, out of touch
From this world we shall be banished
For the questions asked too much
Wait for me, I know the answer
In the episode I saw
Godot walked in like a dancer
Like he never did before
And he said that he is sleeping
And he dreams of us like we
Are the ones that keep...

Confronting shadowsWhy can't I walk in the garden at night?
Horrible shadows keep blurring my sight ~
They make me run like a man with no balls.
Each time I trip and get bruised from my falls.
These shadows whisper cold fears in my ear,
Now I understand the songs sung by fear,
Yet I must confront these fiery shadows,
But each new...

Garden Between My RibsThere is a garden between my ribs,
A hidden place the world can't see.
It blooms in silence, softly lives,
A patch of green inside of me.
I never chose the seeds it sowed,
They came from storms I couldn’t flee.
Each broken word, each heavy load,
Took root beneath my shattered sea.
It grew through cracks, it pierced my bones,
With petals made...
