Premium MemberThe Dread of Winter

The approach of winter she silently dread.
The cat is meowing, demands to be fed.
She checked her to do list that ran thru her head:
get to the gym, to the store to buy bread,
finish the book that she's partially read..
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

Premium MemberCocooned By Bliss

Cocooned by bliss, no finish line
The serpent takes its path
All we do, is with love align
Each breath, holy sabbath

When soul begins to learn
Exiting erst ways stern 
Renews within bliss burn

Feel here now this
Cocooned by bliss

Premium MemberCocooned In Solitude

Alone with aqua alpine air
The calm cocoon of cotton clouds
Permeates peaceful patience
Taught by teardrop tranquility
Nestled in nocturnal nests
Murmurs the meditative moon
Here, the hallowed hush of heaven.

Cocooned In a Single Being

I do not seek words of praise
Or words that you may think that I might like to hear
I seek the purest heart and soul
Sincere,


I seek not what money can buy
But rather, I seek what money cannot buy
Health and happiness

I seek not your smile when you are awake
I seek this even when you are asleep
Contentedly sleeping

Cocooned within 
embryo awaits
a moment
of elation
when birth
will release
the offspring
to a new adventure.

Wings enfolded
in prayer like slumber
will yield to
the currents;
aloft
beauty leaves
its gentle impression
upon the air
and the sighted
will breathe in
a moment of 
elysian bliss.

Cocooned 


Just like a butterfly trapped tight,

     her folded wings await the flight.

          Cocooned, she fears what to expect

               when from her safety, disconnects.

With wings of flight, she

Cocooned

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

With perfect obsession
I shrink-wrap
to your contours -

cocooned;
butterfly will never escape my mania.

Cocooned

Loneliness and sadness
Are my constant shadows.
My unsolicited friends.
They keep me company
In times when no one seems to understand.
They chose me to be their companion.
But, in retrospect, did I choose them?
I always wonder.

Over the years,
I tried to secure 
     my joys
        my happiness
           my fulfillment

Cocooned

Winter's crisp yet early breath whispered to me this eve
A yearly session as we, the cold and me, gather
Conferring when, when can I join her, join her as she 
gallops wild and free-

Life has been cocooned, reigned tight and sensory 
deprived-
all I cry for is the wild. The wild and the wind, as I was

Cocooned Magic

It creeps and crawls upon a twig,
         for every inch a loathsome 
         squirm;
disgusting thing, such hideous sight,
         that hairy, spiny, wiggly

Cocooned

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
