New Year

I saw the top of a crocus today
peeking through the sod.

How odd
upon this New Years day
to see a sign of spring!

It seems the weather does bring
hope and joy and sorrow
a promise of feast or famine
greater than all our resolutions.

And have we adversely affected
the climate that is projected
to come our way ...
who can say?

I saw the top of a crocus today.

Feast Or Famine

Some days, they flow like the nile,
bringing life to the parched soil.
Some days, they bring forth
a dark emotion to the open
like waves of a raging sea,
swelling to break free.
These voices in my head
screaming at me.
Other days, like prying fingers
of the long dead.
They are cemented in my head.
No matter how I ply.
Still they stay,
locked away,
awaiting another day.

Love Is

Love is the halo of my heart the curved bow of my steely dart the signature of my hand write the diamond shine of my sunlight Love is my truest companion my hungering feast or famine my distressor, my dopamine my soul's benefactor & sheen Love is both turbulence and calm a hand offering, a peaceful alm a juxtaposition-sibling and a song thats ready to be sung Love is a bouquet of flowers, with the scent of April showers.
