That Long Evening

When you came to me...

Not that you wanted me.  Oh, no!  It was I who wanted you,
Your comfort... your caring... your
... compassion, your compassion...
Your body, beautiful and young, perhaps that as well at...

Schools are Changing

Gates once locked with poverty's rust
now swing on golden hinges
Every child a key-holder:
the girl whose fingers paint light from darkness,
the boy who dreams in mother tongues and thinks in mathematics,
wheels spinning stories across threshold stones.
Breakfast...

Walking With the Wind

I was an environmental scientist, working with large wind farm developers,
To harness wind and generate electricity, as a plum sun flees, to tell others.

I worked at helping developers comply, with all environmental regulations;
Minimizing the impact...

I Am Called Woman

Sometimes, I find myself on a battleground
in the present or in sieges from the distant past
It may be a war I've been waging within myself,
a thorn that needs plucking so that I might heal
I wear...

I’m,,,? Actually I don’t know anymore

It's that part of the year again,
How many times has this happened?
When did it start?
I can’t remember.
When my mind rages like a storm-tossed sea,
And I sit, helpless, drowning,
In waves that crash harder each time,
Every time...

My Tiger and Me

Walking my tiger home, I now feel
happy to be alive.
Out in the sun, I’m a charmed one -
someone who learned to survive!

It wasn’t easy when I first found
myself near the jungle lost
after I’d landed on...

It Is To Be

"It is to be..."  A bold statement!
Demonstrative for it's not preceded with "If."
That would leave room for a way of escapement.
More of a command as if delivered by the Word of God,
or the promise...

Half Past Midnight's Darkest Hour

"If I could have put you in my heart, 
if but I could have wrapped you in myself,
how glad I should have been.
And now the chart 
of memory unroils again to me.
The course of our...

Blue

Describe a color without ever using the name.
The color of soft rain on a day without the sun. The color of ocean waves when struck with golden light. The color of a girl with the...

A Pilgrim

A Pilgrim
(A song for 'Dia')

I come here at night's edge,
This parlour of hidden shadows
Questing for
Some measure of solace
From the bible black grind
Of mundane despair.

She is wearing white,
Tonight,
My Magdalene
My source of wonderment,
Thunder child
Storm raven
My crucible of...

Shikimoo Lady Liberty

I stare silently at her overwhelming size, Sweet Lady Liberty
her stern beautiful fierce eyes, 
I yearn for the American Dream, I must remain humble,
For things are never what they seem
How could one so tall, metallic-strong,...

A Thunderous Ovation

Heard upon the heavy, humid air,
	now unpleasantly warm,
came further reverberating rumbles,
	that proclaimed an approaching storm,
and we were made very much aware
	Nature’s ire was evident,
as with bolts of forked lightning,
	towering clouds were rent.

Seen in angriest dungeon,
	as...

Maze

PATHS were bordered by boxwood hedges
softened with fern, surrounding GARDEN edges.
Light floral scents perfumed the morning air
and sweet alyssum lined walkways; pea graveled.
I strolled through the MAZE with a hint of despair
for I'd never been...

Then help me be righteous for You
If others are full of deception

If others turn desperate and hopeless
Then help me to tell of Your love

Raindrops Descend

Raindrops descend, puddles form,
A stream engulfed, a river is born,
A course is set, the sea to reach,
Meandering ponderously to a far off beach.

The sea reclaims its myriad young,
Kidnapped by clouds, thunder-slung;
The storm is long past...

Cross Purposes

When a calm breeze, whiplashes trees,
and the sun, hidden behind cloudy skies,
casts deep shadows, then we need expertise
to fix what’s not broken.  Though it’s no surprise,
to know our world has turned topsy turvy!

If

1 Have you failed in your plan of your storm-tossed life?
Place you hand in the nail-scarred hand;
Are you weary and worn from its toil and strife?
Place your hand in the nail-scarred hand.
