She scolded herself to get up from the bed but the warmth from the comforter cocooned her instead.....

The Butterfly Cocooned Noon Beneath higher twig tips, my heart flutters Near converging branches. My cocoon Rests Mid-high the strength and distinctive character Of a gnarly tree. Embracing me. This, my home…Cocoon. Night. This essential place, Protecting Above the swirling world, Puzzling with its mixing motions Of lights, colors, temperatures, Until I think I shall just stay In this cocoon For all the...

I’ve been cocooned for three straight days Within my warm apartment, Accomplishing assorted things And writing (my department!). Though sick at first (which made me sleep), I read and watched some cable, Then made some photo books when I Felt better and was able. Some crosswords kept me occupied; A book held my attention. I never cleaned a closet, Though that had been my intention. Outside it’s...

The wild and the wind, as I was...

the words fall over the cliff of my lips and as they fall they die. nothing says the way I feel except your lullaby. the one your old piano plays late on a winter's eve, I lie upon your dark green rug and blend into the weave. To get as close to nothing underneath the notes that fall,...... I watch your fingers bring to life the...
