you arrive in disguise,
no longer vague,
your nakedness lost in
a sweep of black.

and when i snap back,
if I could breathe,
i would scream your name.

You and I were never strangers.
long before we ever met
you held the key to my heart.
You were one I could never forget.
In another world, another time,
We have done it all before,
But one . . . more

With the loss of a loved one, it is hard to feel,
It seems like a dream-- this can't be real...
One moment they're here; and then, they're gone.
And now I will sing their song... . . . more

They call to me,
are a wellspring inside of me,
and I could not stop them
even if I tried;
Words flow
like a stream,
gentle to my soul,
guided by my spirit,
shared with those
who care . . . more

Wrap me in the familiar
Speak to me in the past tense
Don’t stoke the dying embers
Let me shiver in the bitter chill
No need to cushion the walls
Lock me in dogmatic confinement . . . more

Silent river flows along mossy banks
just as it did many years ago
when I was a little girl;
The picnic table still stands,
wood rotting away as if from a slow cancer, . . . more

for a touch

I brush crumbs to the floor
to make way for paper and pen,
wondering why
I'm left with the remains
of someone's late night sandwich
when all I want to do is

May the light guide you,
infuse your being,
calm your fears,
guide you through the storm;
May joyful days find you,
filling you with laughter,

What is it about fear
that causes us to hold it close like a lover?
We embrace it,
trust it, let it ingrain our very beings
until we are paralyzed,
and in that inability to move,
we feel safe. . . . more

Time is precious,
not to be wasted;
Life is sweet,
meant to be tasted;
Why wither away
our moments?
The time for living is now!

I've been away
Without the music that I play
Now I find
It's time to end
Without warning I rise again
Too long I've . . . more

Once I thought to be in love
Once I had someone love me
When I was young and unaware
Of how fragile true love could be
Once I broke a young girl's heart
By carelessly . . . more

A little (more or less) fiction, a little nonfiction... How about a little poetry; something I wrote over ten years ago:
Jasmine
I put my fingers to my nose & smell
the sweet scent of jasmine. . . . more

dressed up in our Halloween costumes

Taurus bullies me into a corner
Lances my spirit with blunt horns
Leo's flame fuels inspiration
Singes my ego with his pride
Scorpio's sting poisons my mind

oceans strands , horizons gleaming...
consequences of my dreaming.
Anticipation, in the air . . . more
