(2013)
a poem written after a difficult day.
A path with heart Is full of love Which makes us right Brings in the light And chases the dark.
Twilight slides in quietly as birds fly to warm nests. Pink hues of evening reflect in the clouds. Soon the moon
I remember your smile, your laugh,… you gave so freely. It’s hard that you are gone. I sigh and walk along the bay.
Brown hawk with spotted tail, soaring on the wind, balancing like a sail. Your piercing cry
What is the happiest moment of the… When I make someone laugh When I am of use for the good When I show kindness When I hold a hand
Walking on the beach of long ago, the constant roll of the gulf, it’s sound, like a lullaby.
Thoughts flicker like twinkling lights, ride them across the sky. Embrace your dream,
What inspires me... Hummingbirds buzzing as they land, on nearby flowers. Their amazing wings
Not sure what to write while the world is on the brink of another war. While others face
Inhale, the arms float up, Exhale, the arms float down, Namaste, at the heart. Inhale, the body bends, Hands at top of mat,
Looking at my journal’s Blank page While geese fly by and honk A greeting. The red cardinals
Holiday cheer and laughter, Multicolored lights blink faster, Music of love and good will, Grace the air like snowflakes. Tis the season to be compassionate…
Pink hues from the west Filter through Snow covered boughs Leaving, The evening light
When you are not here An empty heart full of fear Arises and wonders If I will see you again. What will I do without
Red and gold leaves Falling, Sing to me Of the season of change, Before the snow,
