Best Saturated Poems

I remember those busy years,
As mother, employee and wife.
I'd sometimes beg, almost in tears,
For peaceful play from my small dears
And more quietude for my life.

The years have passed, with children grown.
My dear husband has gone ahead. 
My home and my time are all my own,
Sitting...

Take my life,
scatter the pieces all over.
I can't seem to suffice,
can't grasp our
final closure.
Why did everything 
have to end?
Or why did it
have to begin?
Pain is my normal,
misery is my everyday,
I'm glad our last talk 
was formal,
I'm glad you actually
knew what to say.
I promise this will...

h e s i t a t e  before leaving, my beloved...
                  tarry with me to the pebbled reverie-

wait for me under the moonlit autumn night, 
and...

Alone,
silence, so stark,
me, lost in the unknown
and blind in my thoughts, yet, I own
the dark.

The dark,
like arms, embrace
me and leave their bleak marque,
forlorn in my world in this stark
sad place.

SATURATED SEEDLINGS:

Start 

A solid life form
Shelled until Saturated
Grounded in suppressing soil
Surrounded and submerged in darkness

A seminally insignificant seedling
Attempting to sprout above the horizon

To let the sweet sunshine photosynthesize itself

The green applaudance
As its begins breaking through the darkness into the place of life and light

A mother...

I cried today 
tears were streaming down my face

nobody knew -

I walked around for hours 
crying over you 

nobody knew - 

my clothes were drenched
I cried today 

nobody knew –

because I was crying in the rain...

When we were babes all we needed was a smile
Along with a hug that would last us a while
A mother’s aroma coming toward us with a kiss
It’s those moments in time that we live in bliss

Our dads making funny sounds and faces
With words of wisdom...

Saturate me sweetheart, sweet smiles shall be seen-
Skin to skin sated in slow songs sung with safety. 
Show shores of sand sparing storms from smoke, 
solitude shall sever, seized shall be sinister shade. 
See the sunset shine with sharp showers of splendor, 
sparkling stardust shall...

sun soaked green tree leaves

and storm stained skies of twighlight

with a fading rain...

Come come come and dance with me 
Come come come and sing with me
A sweet aroma is churning in the air
enchanting everyone far and near
Nature is emitting  goose bumps upon my flesh
And I can hear the sound of the  spiritual drums
delivering a message...

SATURATED IN SOLITUDE

The solitary moon moves slow across the still sky
Sprinkles silver dust on the seizing elixir of solitude 
I drink to the dregs as the fluid time passes me by
My voice speechless in somber stillness, I know why
The trance of clutching aloneness makes me...

Leave me alone in my grief,
let me lock myself away.
Soothing words, they give no relief
because cancer it was a cruel thief,
there is nothing more you can say.

I want to be left on my own,
where my silent tears can fall.
Since he passed I feel so alone

Progressive letters talk and reel
Tempting minds at the brink of fruition
Imaginative portents come to being
Through the exchange quality of mental travel
Ideas fashion acclaim and source the brain
Stimulating fervor glows mutant at souls pestering

But when boundaries come to claim
Their acute diatribes of definition
Suspicion sets precedent 
And...

A giant stillness surrounds me 
as I lie in the meadow’s grass.
No noise; no calamity!
For off into the horizon, the sea
shimmers in sunlight like blue glass.

I breathe wild flowers’ scent! Real life I do not miss
because - for my thoughts - serenity is the food
nourishing...
