Metamorphosis
Line of inquiry:
blessings from above
transformed lust to love
delusion to illumination
earth-heaven bilocation

More stirring than any rhyme I could compose
It wasn’t summer, with...

A Last Wish For PeaceWhen will peace finally come
to reign in righteous hearts,
will skies be without smoke?
Hear a mother's lingering cry,

Poet's Note
Giving voice to my dream, my hope, my belief,
Meant silencing doubts who clung like murky mist,
