Short Rediscovering Poems

Sweeping out corners
Of memory’s attic, I
Rediscovered self;
Scrap-booked heaps of my life-tales;
Age has stolen so many....

Radio’s playing jazz.
Red wine is poured in flutes,
 Ribeye steak; in oven,
Rose petals are scattered.
    Rediscovering us.
Romance is in the air,
 Ready set go, my love.

Dancing in the moonlight ‘neath the stars
These treasured moments we will share,
Putting behind us those inevitable scars
Dancing in the moonlight ‘neath the stars
Recovering our relationship, how bizarre,
Who would have thought we were a pair
Dancing in the moonlight ‘neath the stars
These treasured moments we will share.

~~Recovering Hope~~


       Existing in fear is nothing to cheer
       Your death cannot be hidden from
       A sunny day could be your last 
       It comes to one and all
       Some drink till dead
       Some overeat
       Stop the fear
       Let go
       Live

I try to think, 
not to think of you; 
cede hope to candor.

You will not contribute, 
to your own rape, of truth; 
rediscovering the shame.

The modesty will not sit 
on the stigmata. 
Moths were becoming defiant.

Copiously drenched, 
under the wet moon, 
a poem will seek a title.

It returns back, the 
kiss, you sent for the flame. 
It was very hot, the farewell.

I untied the straps of my mysteries,
I undid the braids of my misfortunes,
I started playing my forgotten song...
I tied and knotted the bag of sorrows,
I revived the memories of the adventures,
I found the keys to my portals,
I ignited my holy lights...
i burned in a strong fire
my anxieties,
I gathered my faces from the mirrors,
I stripped myself of all worst omens,
and ran to live a novel life!...

Rediscovering listening to music
Currently have The Big Bopper on
With show don't tell, tell don't show poetry on my mind
I'm loving the simplicity of the telling in 50s music
I love the clothes, the make up, perhaps even connotations of chivalry
I'll have my equal rights and my special treatment (sorry not sorry)
And I'm sure the juxtaposition of holding a pint of Guinness sets off my (occasional) 1950s glamour look to perfection 
See ya later alligator...

I find myself in a new place
A new surrounding
A special kind of love that has come my way
Picking me up and dusting me off
Breathing new life
And rediscovering love
I found a love so real to me
That is true and simple
Sincere and sweet to the tender touch
I fall so quickly
So fast to be caught
In the arms of love
Where I am safe in his reach
Where we find ourselve locked innertwined
Two hearts bound forever 
To love eternal the key of happiness with each other...

Joy In Rediscovering Love


      In solitude the mind constantly wander beyond the periphery of infinity

      Thirsting for purification discarding every ounce of doubt and ambiguity

      In limbo love exposes renewed passion liberating darkness caged inside

      Finding tenderness again for a wounded heart to mend from the outside
