To the legend of silence
that speaks in trembling stillness
I’ve seen your halcyon halo~
that illuminates wilted weeds 
and tilted tendrils 
unfolding perfumed wings,
allowing sizzling seas of stardust to rise.

But something about the way
your soft skin caresses...

Have I ever told you about my friend,
a mechanic by the name of John?
Oh, the countless stories that he can tell
of the hunting trips that he’s been on.

He’s taken down many a whitetail,
but most people...

The thought of you reminds me of what it feels like to scream without a voice 
To scream and internally feel the words fall deaf
Fall deeper down into the pit of my soul
I despise you,...

I still remember 
how you were
there in the dark,
holding my 
bleeding heart.
Whilst I wandered,
sleepless under
soundless spheres.

Now I search
for your starlit
symphony
that echoes,
as idyllic octaves,
from the last song
you sang for 
our lost youth;
demons we fought,
when colorless dusks

I carry our friendship in my mind
And like a “Welcome Home” banner
It warms my heart. 
When I see flowers in bloom
I think of your poetry;
How your words paint such colorful, 
Vivid tapestries.
Even on the greyest...

truly sit there and listen
for hours and only hours on end,
you will hear such a strange,
but a graceful sound
of a heart thumping and singing
in such a beautiful thing called, "Love"

Hear her...

I cannot write of white sandy beaches
For I am an inland raised girl 
Who lived under the blue sky of Dakota.
I guess I’ll give “the sky” a whirl.

If I had lived by one of the...

dedicated to Kerry

The literal closet in which she dreamed
Visions of a world that outside teemed
Whilst poring over texts and theories
Cocooned her life from freedoms’ wine,
The taste of which fermented bright
In the chrysalis cauldron of her...

Although unheard I thank you
 For always being there
 Even when you were bedridden
 You always seemed to care

 You meant so much to all of us
 you were special and that's no lie

Has a delusional life let you down...
when even hope seemed far?
Has everyone pushed you aside
and been ashamed of who you are,
makings a disapproving frown
to forget that you existed...
that you were entitled to be loved?

I have...

Morning Sunshine  


Clouds all a’ scatter, the greyest of views
Drizzle does tickle the ground
Willows are weeping amidst early gloom
Solemn this place to be found

Chipmunks now scurry to hide in their den
Songbirds stay silent away
Butterfly...

I am no more than an Courier
A wanderer through life
Words are what I choose to cling to
Purveyor of the times

Spending forbidding moments in the desert
Just to watch it bloom at night
The chilling winds that blow...
