one single tear that sped down...

As my heavy eyes stretched open
I suddenly realized, I was not alone
You were there with me again, unwelcome with your heaviness and sorrow
stirring around once more in the depths of my brain, uninvited.

The acute pain...

Oh breeze oh breeze upon my face your breath so soft and free
My body yearns to feel thou breath which blows so warm on me
Oh breeze oh breeze with birds you fly as you lift...

Lashing out at me in rage anger
Speaking ill of my name and my strife

Forgetting all good and the love I have offered
Your perception is yours, not truth of my life

Why such dark anger and aversion...

If I could be but a breath;

Anticipating each sweet rhythm; watching the rise of my chest

Collapsing in sweet song, sending out just my best

Id breathe out I Love you, and forget all the rest

 

If...

Sauntering without hindrance in consciousness

Sudden waves of lilac delight

Borne of a sweet tempered breeze I inhale

Powerful auras and essence soon ignite

 

Fields of flowers, tall grass, background birds singing

Closing my eyes I can no longer...

When my head had failed to sooth my heart

Common sense could not be found

Mother Nature hurled her cape of sustenance

In Her beauty, love tumbled around

 

When darkness from an impaired heart

Cast a spell my way...

Once upon my childhood, for God’s love there had to be fear

His comfort I sought only arms length to please

As I repeated Acts of Contrition on my knees

Through my grandmother’s glasses I could see her...

The path swirled muddy under my tired feet 

beneath darkened clouds baby birds begin to sing

sun rays muffled , cold air dancing against the street

side walks stained wet with the hint of coming spring

 

Ice...

They whispered as she settled
Who Is she ? why is she here?
The fallen tree transformed for her
Still strong her weight it bared

Rustle of leaves while branches swayed softly
Filtered sunshine sprayed all about
They waited in silence...

One pierce from loves’ arrow sent my heart high

dear Cupid cast a gift from his red bow

weightless soaring through God’s lonely blue sky

Laced with bounties of love he would bestow

 

On that day we first...

In the beginning I ached for your love

As your words hummed notes of every love song

In sleep or wake you were all I think of

Till my heart did beat this love is life long

Captured beneath a smokey red hazy sky, mesmerized

My attention and heart did follow

Sky aglow for as far as the eye could see

A beautiful sunset resting in her hallow

 

Red, pinks, some bedazzled grays

Imprisoned rainbows from...

I wish I could just flip the world
and walk upon the sky
with the clouds beneath my tired feet
and the earth above me high
~
I would swim and glide through perfect blue
exploring every cloud I see
I would...

You never promised me a diamond
You never swooned me with control
You never swore to me you’d never leave
Or one day walk out that door

You never said how much you needed me
nor complained when I felt...

Orange lilies sway

Swollen wood fence leaning drenched

First summers storm over

Cold autumn breeze blows

Bell ringing in the distance

Red leaves slow dancing

Tree branch barren home

Red oak acorns deep

Squirrels huddle for warmth

Ice soon melts new day

Gray chair with...
