The night lays down like a black silk mantle, embracing the sleeping city, I search in its deep silence for your warmth, a living flame lost in the cold wind, In these long winter nights when my thoughts are stray birds, Only you can catch and chase them away with your gentleness, a warm spring breeze. You are far...

To be immune from aspersions mean and vile May assuage our hurt feelings for awhile But to really uphold the Golden Rule We must also withhold words harsh and cruel—by poet In an upside-down world Where self-victimization is a realization and hatred lingers, it goes nowhere May not yet get it, and still not self-aware Now some may think that healing is Ignoring what...

Sturdy within myself like I haven’t been before. From the penthouse of my mind to the dirt in my basement floor. Wasn’t focused on the destination as that would have been a chore. So I climbed the stairs one step at a time without pushing for more. Leaning into discovery along the route to guide...

There are hard days when you look in the mirror and wonder, "How am I going to do this?" Yet, somehow, amidst the...

I notice the single placemat within the circle of noise, Placing my phone on the cluttered side plate, I can feel the Christmas spirit resonating through, The crowd of extended families unwrapping each other’s joy, A tear drops onto my unused napkin, My mind races with memories of family togetherness, The phone reminds me of the unsent WhatsApp messages, I spot the...

There's no one cause I'm done, With the sore and the pain. But there's awe with my faith, That is growing again. The peace I'm embracing, It has filled my whole heart. And my soul sings the rhythms, Of a day with no start. This Christmas I'm healing, And I'm new like a moon. I'm lighted, revealing, Full of glow in a room....

I don’t know what you’re saying And I don’t really care Let’s take off all our clothes And cut off all our hair We’ll swim inside our blood While drinking in our skin We’ll look inside our ears And pull out every pin We’ll give until we can’t We’ll take until we’re full We’ll idolize ourselves And dive into the pool We’ll leave behind the land ‘Cause we’re...

Saying goodbye ripping through my core, stirring up sadness that is too hard to ignore Sorrow seeping into the dirt of my soul while questioning if I will remain whole Not pushing around the feelings coming my way Instead leaning in to see what they have to say Realizing the heartache is telling me how hard it is to...

I am the storm that lost its own rhythm, laughter flaring, then burning to silence. Your imperfections swagger, and scars that tell unerasable stories. Some days I am a solid stream, unbendable, other days, a forest fire — wild, unrelenting. I falter, I burn too bright, but each autumn leaves a truth inside me. If you read me in bits and pieces, raw...

I am growing older I passed the threshold of 55 And I am not reluctant at all As I run with enthusiasm Into old age Not everyone gets the privilege Of growing old I have discovered my gifts Of music and poetry And I regularly engage in them I am growing old with my soul mate Who I have been married to for thirty years I practice...

In the heart's quiet glow, hope blooms, a vibrant hue, painting dreams anew, bright sunbeams aglow. Thoughts soar, wings spread wide, kindness whispers near, lifting souls to steer toward joy's gentle tide. In every dawn's call, promise softly sings, visions on hope's wings, embracing life's thrall. ...

Opposite ends of the spectrum yet somehow still makes sense Balancing the equation without coming at my own expense What used to be one or the other is now showing signs of decay Black and white blending together to create a glorious shade of gray Not attached to the ups or down as notice neither lasts forever Nestling into the...
