Magnolia Moments
When I whirl as wind, 
unwavering ~
 surfing on 
watercolor wings 
of simmering seasons, 
 which flicker
 and fly through me, 
filtering my faults
with a wrinkled fantasy, 
I waltz whistling ~
in their whispering waves, 
where...

Heart Wrench
We’re funny, you and I.
By age six, we played together on an island.
Never knowing, never fathoming,
Nine years later we’d meet again – like a message in a bottle.
This time in another country. On another continent.
Though...

Premium Member Unwriting My Sister as a Teddy Bear
I’ve behaved poorly every winter
I can remember, my awfulness in each
separated only by degrees, 
secrets piled like snowdrifts at the corners 
of rooms I wouldn’t stay in. 

Hiding was easier.

as you lay soaking up the sun
tiptoeing with that bucket.

sprout cynthia moon 
of a bygone 
medieval saga, 
amidst heavenly 
eventides,...
