The words of wisdom, the priceless pearls,
Each letter embedded with love and care,

Get out your sponges, stippling brushes and pens,
It’s time for makeover-Monday-night to begin.
Think Winky Lux, L’Oréal, Urban Decay,
Maybelline, Armani and Fabergé

It’s a black magic realm where brushes are wands,
where a carnival of colors are carefully...

I want to run away 
from the stares
when our friends 
don’t see you there
Instead I walk confidently
like I don’t care
But inside 
I feel like life’s unfair
Why did I believe you
when you said
we’d always be a...

The funeral was well attended

Nobody came

It was sad in a way

Clashed with the dog passing away

There was a friend with a leg

When I say a leg

I actually mean two

Though he had the flu

The Priest nearly...

Limerence. 

Unfalible, enduring, undefeated,
Persistent, 

Words that would describe,
A love that a man refused to hide,

Patiently waiting,
Wanting, longing...
For her eyes to once again gaze upon him 
Lovingly.

Believing, 
Even though days became months,
Months became years,
Holding onto the...

Washed by spitum from the drooping lips
of the dying angel, i recieve the command baton
to war against the dreadful monsters from outer space.
With a bible from Bernadette Soubirous
i whip like Arthur's excalibur,
cutting squirming tails and...

Golden Roses

A golden garden not seen by their eyes

At first sight, I miss God,
When I think of my father,
Of the primroses in bloom,
When I feed the blinding sun,
Drying up,  all the rivers.

I miss God,
When I don’t understand
The purity of the azure,
When I...

Bernadette and Juliet

Alone, alone in her mind
as she sleeps comfortably
now alone permanently
as she drifts away un-noticed

Was it Bernadette or Juliet
that flew away
as the designer was given 
a one thousand gun salute

As the glittering buttons
of a...

For she was taken from my side on that cold November ride.
Early on the snow did fall quickly it covered all.
The wind howled...

Discover a hidden spring of grotto
That Spring was soon to become
Fountain of faith, hope
Healing for millions of pilgrims

Acrylic is an exuberant technique
giving life to colors so unique,
reminiscent of a Matisse.

The pine-scented breeze drifts
from mounts to hills,
an ambient of skylarks trills. 

The French Autumn landscape
with mounts and lake,
an escape for the elite.
 
The...

Do not read this if you are faint of heart
If you never asked where you stand
When things fall apart
When the sand
In the hour
Glass is
Done
And all you can see is your lips pale
Wanting more crayon, your...

Bewildered with beauty and grace
Evaluating my own self's worth
Reminiscing of my times of sorrow and happiness
Neatly packaged with a delicate label of feeling
Acceptance of my failures and achieving my goals
Devoted to motherhood and correcting my...
