Premium Member Virgo Vibrations (DHR)

Calm is your nature so fair
O maiden of meticulous metaphor
like the white lilies in the garden, balms soft air,
amongst autumn’s signature rustling leaves
upon dried maples once green
In warm tones of terracotta her spirit roams free, 
on earth she manipulates the mariposa monarca 
butterfly migration in Michoacán’s fir forests, 
clusters color trees with golden orange tones
trimmed in black lace philigree 
skies are filled with beating wings
like a flurry of a rain's pitter-patter 
O butterfly if you flutter by, I’ve left you aster
for your returns refuel in my yearning yard

Tonantzin our venerable Mother, goddess virginius
 of virtue of vim and vigorous miss
Q3 keeper of chaos and order,
I’m forever thankful for your service ~

Where I Wonder

This December day that feels like March or April
Beckons me down to my old thoughtful spot
To the bench on the hill above the lake
Where I have discovered poems waiting for me

Behind me, the oaks are alive
With a red-winged blackbird raucous
Below me, a solitary doe grazes the tender
Emerald green left where the waters receded

"Hello, deer!" I call out to her, waving
She looks up, dewdrop eyes and ears
Like petals turned toward me curiously
A mariposa lily blooming toward my light

I feel the woodpecker’s fervent knock inside my ribcage
And the everywhere croak of a single unseen frog
Is the creak of a door I never meant to close
Slowly opening again, letting it all back in

The moss on my heart is cool in the winter sun
The lace lichen holds my dreams among the trees
And there is a brand new poem waiting for me
"Hello, dear," I say again, and this time I am sincere.

May your days be filled with happiness, joy and laughter
Always know I love you, a poem is what I’ll gift forever after
You’re  in my heart and soul, as a child and as I mature then grow old
   I cherish our memories, your motherly love, from sunrise to sunset 
             forever more

My mother’s eyes of ebony, sparkling stars
Carefully, she tints her lips gypsy red
A cascade of flowing ringlets, her hair shines from afar
Muscatels quaint yellow ribbons a lovely corona spread                   
Slipping on an elaborate Norteño style flared dress
Exquisite ruffles swirl and billow before her rapt audience
Instructor of folkloric dance, a god given talent unique no less                                                                                   
Her blithe unbounded spirit, free as a mariposa
Images of her forever I keep, radiant and hermosa
