Which I admit was a cute display
But when she packed on too many pounds
That rose blossomed into a bouquet!

Rainfall pounds on the roof,
sounds like it's dropping critters.
can't hear myself think,
and it's giving me the jitters!

(untitled)

My child.
Innocent and fair.
Life's hand has not dealt a blow.
And yet I fear
That one day
Innocence will be crushed
As life's fist pounds home
Reality.

Winter Movement

My heart pounds steadily
pushing warmth throughout my insides
but I burn with a frozen fire
my skin pin-pricking in the cold night 
I've never felt more alive.

Veiled Waterfall

Thunderous rain pounds, 
A whiff of a baby's neck...
alas! veiled vision.

walls closing in about me
within my heart it's loudest
