I’m living such sweet heartache~
You take my heart into your mouth,
Hold it in your newborn hand,
Your emerald eyes reveal truth to the moon.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who Am I?
No longer a teacher
Free to be a woman
Who dreams
Self worth diminishes . . .

Hello Dear Gather Friends,
I spent the summer in Morro Bay and most days walked on the beach and chatted with girlfriends over coffee. I stayed in my trailer at a campground one mile from the ocean. . . .

In my rear view mirror
A vision of his shadow
Digs heels into clay ground
Rust traps loneliness
On my way back
Home to freedom

Night swallows
Islands of the moon
Stars give birth
To sunbursts
Flowers awaken
Buried blind souls
Bird wings carry voices . . .

I can see no light
in the tunnel my feet drag
through heavy mud
an impression of regret left
behind me chains release
I prefer to keep my feet dry
tears don't fade scars
the past . . .

Through a looking glass
everything seems novel and bright
Rushing toward the skyline
I trip and fall down a rabbit hole
Underground shelter swallows me whole
Trapped under heavy snowfall
No . . .

Asleep on the silver moon,
clouds blanket the chill
Awakened by sudden descent,
I land at your feet, vulnerable
You rise to hold my soul in your palm

Caught on an island
Rolling in the sheets
Your body is an escape
Eyes of deep blue sea
Dance to sultry sounds
Calling for rescue

Fairy tale peddlers
sell romance to patrons
Thousands of emotions
grow out of control
the way floods begin
as millions of raindrops . . .

She thought they would marry,
but his heart turned to stone.
She kissed him before she fled.
Like a freight train,
he chased her off the track.
In her luggage, . . .

A dragons' eyes spoke
of warfare and my demise
His wings cloaked
by a sheep’s disguise
He spewed fireflies
that whispered promises
of an end
to destruction and lies
Not sated by . . .

As my heart descends to Earth
a rainbow swallows my sorrow
My power underestimated,
smiles ignite an old town
The moon screams curses
at my loss of control
Lightning . . .

We nearly set the rain on fire,
But word swords cut deep love scars
Until hearts played their last beats
We were rolling in the . . .

I write this poem for you
although you may not read it
because fire consumes me
The ice in your soul
will never melt
and forces our separation
I feel the release
of gossamer threads

Two weeks away
Clocks urge life on...
I float down the river,
rest on a smooth boulder,
bathe in a golden stream.
I sift tiny, silver pebbles . . .

under the pretense of seeking a wife
A beautiful foolish woman bounds

In passionate moments

Icicles droop from eves,
descend, then shatter
into insignificant droplets.
Slivered clouds produce
a single tear in the sky.
A raindrop slips by unnoticed.
