forgive the silent sunsets, 
    frozen in time, 
  and remember thin 
    cinnamon skylines, 
how ink carved...

I gaze beyond 
the silver winged 
     heart of 
twinkling twilight,
lost within metaphors 
    in warm cashmere
    bows of midnight.

of petrichor peace,
perfumed in jasmine water,

     rhinestones on big toes sparkle.
The tentacle-shine of sunwheat

My mother was beautiful when I was young.
In pictures she wore pearls.
I remember her putting on sky-blue eye shadow,
Even her eyebrows beautiful,

Upon the rustic walls,
Laid a shadow, shadow too dry.
In the trees beyond, laid the carnelian of fall;
And I stroll away, into the vestige foliage ply.

In my little cabin,
many boring days had flown by,

School gets out at one o’clock instead of three-thirty.
The teenagers drive around the town square, cuddled up.
Parents are calling to make sure they are wearing coats.

When Clem finally made it into town
Leading his horse and swearing
The townfolk looked at him askance

His horse had thrown a shoe
Walking wasn't his favorite sport
But,...

Little Miss Sure Shot Gains A Namesake

Rhinestones and rawhide
Prancing horses and the dream

The ash shot off of the Kaiser's...

In The Water’s Level
Toes Played On Round Pebbles
In Liquid Clear & Cold

Muted, Silky Green
Flowing Fresh & Clean
Rushing Somewhere...

Okay, so Mom got me my own smart-phone,
now I can have fun when I’m home alone.
I can see the addiction to this thing,

BEDTIME MAGIC 




Sprawled under nightscape of galaxy bright
Tiny sequins pulse on blaze of luster,
A beaded stars nova bursts on flight
Into a full-blown montage, the lawns flicker

Reams of tales climb on visions lit by dappled view
While...

The daughter of a professional seamstress, I am a tactile learner,
I have to feel the possible fabric to make a decision.
If it is rough like linen or denim, I am not a fan.
