(2014)
Grateful for: Sunrise of pink and gold Showing the way, Lighting the sky, To another blessed day.
Last night I dreamt that I floated above the clouds, above the earth and my heart
The wind went through me, it carried the yellow, orange and red leaves lightly on the air. Another change is coming,
The chimes outside the pottery studio ring like a temple bell, calling the faithful to honor,
The red cardinal high in a tree, caught my attention with his melodious chirp on my daily walk.
One lit candle burns brightly As I make a wish upon it’s Golden aura, that Humankind May learn to caress the earth As the wind does a field of flower…
When I first heard “The Blackbird,” In the middle Of night, I was just thirteen.
You may not know what you’ll do next: Hit the open road With your thumb stuck out. Give up all you own
Great scientific minds Working for cures Of terminal diseases, The clock ticks... What is the cure
On the brink of leaving, To go beyond These borders And say good-bye, To all you know,
Summer is near it’s end, I regret not visiting my childhood home, near the gulf, where the sunset
Pretend there is no tomorrow becau… there might not be. Live like there is only this momen… that is the truth. Nothing is solid but whispery,
Photos are all I have At times, Of smiling familiar faces, My family spread out. I would travel often
Tonight, the wind whistles as it rushes through the atmospher… Winter’s bare limbs of swaying trees, dance in the shadows.
Her smile was like gold, Her lines were often bold, Her stories of wisdom told, In books that are now sold. She has left the earth,
