Of ruthless fear and callous doubt sown deep

Brightened each day quite magnificently as she held blossoming Begonia's
Captivated and enthralled by what nature smelled like sweet carnations

Alone in my kitchen, snow outside my window
My heart returns to winters past, where a little girl
Stands beside Gramma, the other one…

Vegetables and plum trees, peach trees, and pears.
Grapes on...

Couch PotatoesCouch potatoes never see the light,
Seldom produce real potatoes,
Or much else that is palatable.
They leave switches on 24 seven,
And don't know what is the purpose of an off switch,
Resulting in bed sores,
Though they...

place enough to potter and mumble
where he kneels...

Last Light, With Her By the LibraryInside fleshy walls, wallowing in youth,
lava coarses corrosive through peeled licorice
onward, fleeing the thundering stone
vacillating at the center of a man slugging

The blackberry had a thorny issue
The elderberry looked down on them

This is our lot, sharing this plot

My Heart Is On An IslandMy heart is on an island
Half a continent away.
It’s not a hot and sunny isle
With palm trees all asway.

The winters cold and raw
The waves pound on the beaches,

Until Horizons Find the RainWinds of change
Carry tears of scarecrow away
Where ravens sit

Muses to the ears of sadness
