Torn Apart Came Together
Cut from the same cloth, certainly didn't apply
I'd lived twenty places, was born to improvise

Persistance forced my flighty spirit to accept you
Invited to hang with your family...

Fourteen Patches
Scorching heat hassled my feet,
as I ambled alongside the beast.
A wooden cup, a water bag and
parched barley meal for a feast.
My shadow exhaled hot fumes
on the dry desert sand.

Spring Break
Young like April, winds
Settling in the limbs of oaks,
Just past the crisp whisper
