The Pierced Nothing

...Her skin is textured fabric
and a lovely pair of…odd eyes of ink
 black and sheen green.
Cherry cheeks, heavy-handed
 for his amusement.

Lips sewn to silence
just the way he likes her...

Nowhere In Sight

...On a grassy verge above the surging rill 
she stood fair haired and proud,
three leaf clover substrate at her toes.
Clutching saline bouquets I had plucked 
from my neighbours walk-in green house...

In Silent Prayer

...When the chilly wind starts blowing from the North, 
                                     I don't curse the wind,

The Cold Comes

...The cold comes
   following an endless spring
   that lagged forever into summer
   where it could not keep its hold
   then returning again in autumn
   to linger on the trees and low in the gr...

Who could combine magic with herbs and wax in a glass vessel.

She used charms and floral elixirs to make enchanted scented candles,

Winter Still

...They hung stiff up on the tree
 as if they were in the air and free.
Covered in an icy coating reflecting from the snow
 that set that color deep, dark red and bold.
Tiny apples cast against the ...

The Apple Doesn'T Fall Far From the Tree

...You can see him now, dirty as a horse
that slipped in the mud, planting petunias
with that infamous shamrock thumb

Happiness 101

icky fingers in my nose
frogs harrumphing in my pocket
worms and bugs and itchy things
lumps and bumps the scratching brings
bugs and snakes and ...

Painted White Houses

...In the small town that I grew up as a child, streets were neat and prim.
