Lessons Learned
On the edge of the leaf, spinning,
Out of control, glistening
Slowly dancing – a waltzlike trembling,
glad to see the hesitation of colors,
graceful as sun’s reflection on the waters,
lakes of melancholic, drifting
soundless and soothed by the twisting,...

Weight of Sin
Heavy as sin,
Trusting nothing, no one,
Never more than a distant fog,
Secreting the promises,
Fading into the yesterdays,
Stirring stars, shimmering
Resting on the night, breathless
As daybreak and just as busy,
Trembling with feelings,
Intimate and gracious, like a...

Bilocation
When light erases the mist falling softly
Against a quiet morning,
Life becomes eager to begin again,
Like the start of something wonderful,
It stirs awake the flames of faith,
That forever, forever awaits in this day,
So listen, morning says…...

A Growing Hope
Violent as the gleaming blade
Of a vicious criminal crazed
Ferocious as the lion’s jaw
Lingering on an innocent calf
This wicked affliction forces
Its teeth into the harmless heart
Bites wildly into vulnerable flesh
With haste to destroy and devastate
End the...

There is a man in the street. He walks his dog, unaware of the eyes observing
him. The ladybug's short flight ends on a windowsill. A man sits and wonders
why life consists...

Last Sigh
The woman lying on the hospital bed
Silent, intuition discerning
The last breath, last sigh, goodbye
Whispered beneath a soft cry
From the soul who she was leaving behind
She had been a daughter, a wife, a mother
She’d known sorrow,...

Snowflakes, Legends of the Wolves
In a winter chorus, autumn’s rouge and sallow shed.
Their shuffle settles loamy dregs of timber lords.
As they await the hurling puff to haply brush the forest floor,
of what to grace their lot, they’ve lack. No...

Quiescent
“Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn.” -Elizabeth Lawrence
Still, soft colors
like blushing roses,
dew kissed, dancing quietly,

Immortal Elves
(~Boast~)
A year is but a mere blink,
A century is just a sigh.
We dream awake, we sleep to think,
Let time pass, long enough for trees to dry.

Centuries old, young for our eyes,
Led by pride, beauty, and...

Dandelion Dreams
the dandelion weeps
as a summer sun melts away
each dewdrop,
reflecting the morning
winds resolving to accompany
the hesitant chirps,
songs of hope, of grace
feelings whispering
to the weeds…
never will my heart forget
the dandelion’s tears
as she remembers the spring
and her...

The Abuse of Silence
Abuse
So much more than what you do
So much more than what you say
There is the abuse of silence...
Deathlike silence
Abuse of your soul
Abuse of you heart
Abuse of your mind
You’re nothing
Insignificant
Not worthy of the gift of words
Not...

Recently, I experienced Sudden Cardiac Arrest,
Doctors said any hope of my living looked grim.
But to the power of prayer I can readily attest,
And prayer warriors had placed all faith in Him.

Waiting For Imbolq
These days belong to snow and cold.
The leaden heart, the ashen skies
Conspire with the dark
That steals the hours daily
Settles us into unquiet peace.
Showing sense,
Creatures burrow down into their dens
Slip into their deathlike sleeps.
If we could,...

Each dawn, the cold steps back a pace,
In the lengthening light the cold steps back
As the lands rise fresh and free from deathlike sleep again,
To play the full young mother dressed in life itself,
Strolling through...
