...The wedding was planned for that fifth year,
but when it came Rob sadly did say:

I’m sorry love, but I must go away.”
She was in tears, but what choice...

This is a poem written by my mother, under her, "nom de plume", 
Genevieve St. Cyr.

The mechanical bird covered with diamonds, sings only 
waltzes until the insides give way, and the sound

Part I: Ice

He shines like silver midnight moon -
cool marble statue, this tycoon.
And though he makes the ladies swoon,
of ice he’s hewn; of ice he’s hewn.

He’s poker-faced and can deceive
competitors and can achieve

She squats and points,
her little face is all aglow.
Her smile is wide
She’s grinning ear to ear, you know.
She’s very pleased
at the discovery she’s made.

is sitting frozen in the shade.
He knows that she
is his...

The Battle field is ready for a messy day
Throats will be cut and blood will spray

Great feats will be achieved and a wonderful display
Of armies in mortal struggle, the fray

Giants, Demons, Angles and the like...

on seeing her upright and standing tall.

A time when nature puts a request
everything else stays on hold no matter the quest.

Letting go of the unwanted, already conceived
affecting all even if you’re Queen Genevieve.

I am young a mere nineteen
That is why she is still my dream

No matter how I try to forget the pain
I always see my beloved slain

Genevieve Stoddard

1892-1912

Whose footsteps do I hear

Up there above my sleeping bones?

Whose unghostly shadow stalks me

Here in these dark parameters?

Whose blood stream has inundated me 

Here in these forbidden avenues?

Avenues of green and gray and alabaster?

Is...

I am the robed red-eyed rabbit 
iconoclast of radiant reverie
I am socially inept and intrepid
unfit for heaven
left unforgiven
in deevy eyes of Saint Genevieve

beneath the ice of silence
Genevieve dreams she's a rain, 
in need of a...

You’ve always been the quiet wind,
Filling our sails on the sea of life.
The silent rock of our family,
That eased our pain and strife.

Your heart beats the drum dance;
The four corners of the wind.

The flame of friendship ignited in us,
our spirits entwined like twin blazes, yes;
We became a beautiful matching pair,
with a special connection very rare.

Now, because of work you must leave,
but you will always be my...

The day started out just like any other
I was laughing and playing with my brother

Not knowing what to expect, but torment
My friend Joel was on the phone...

Her impish grin, her throaty voice:
I clearly never had a choice.

It's such a thrill to watch her grow;
this precious thing, I love her so.

she truly seems enthralled with...

five chameleon sisters with talents none shared
dancing the day awake in a Nebraskan hay field
one was a dancer, dreaming of Broadway and Park Avenue
one was a soothsayer, seeing three of their futures.
Terrified because she could...

Ivory flaxen hair swaying in the breeze
To run my fingers through those locks: my very desire.

Face that`s not fair but clear and bright as the moon
To caress that caramel visage: my very desire.

Eyes round and...
