I am bubbling, as the soup I stir on the stove Quick with anger, only I know dwells Quick with the tempered fury of a wrinkled brow Quiet the damper, let the billows out Dam is flooded, I'm what's left. Who is today when fury quickens In mind, or conquered day by day Simmering still, the soup is ready I lay still the doubts of today

Mood
I'm so sad. Like a 50lb weight that sinks to the oceans depth Like my love for him swells and dips That ocean current I'm swimming away from It is to lay on a white sandy beach and soak in the sunshine Melting and rising with the sea's waves Why is my path diverting from him? What direction am I on now? I don't know. It's the deep unknown. What creatures watch closely? Mermaids watching over me. I shall sit and wait here. Til I rise , and sprint into the sun so bright . And walk away from the ocean of us, of him and what I was with him.

Low tide
Hear the wind See the breeze billow out the curtain as I sit listening to soft jazz It seems the music and curtain dance in the midst of it all, swinging and swaying Sound moves all things Or though they say Thoughts meander with sound and light Crescendos as lightning strikes the tree in the horizon Light pierces darkness Only to light the flame of the candle, once again in the night

Stormy night
With a hand motions to be quiet Finger across lips to hush That moment breath comes God's breath in a whisper To a baby One breath to come

Life
Looking onward, Sun sets the sky gold Golden highlights on ember stones As iron turns to molten lava blue As the sun settles on the rise Rose colored stones darken Green brush lit a fire in the changing leaves Soon it sets dark Set the embers aside To turn to fire again in the morn Sleep now child It will all be answered

Nature colors
You taught me a love like I had as I became one with the universe. You taught me like as if I were the sky. Rays between, above as below. I meet with the stars, as the sun settles and the moon blooms Oh sweet prairie, let me lay down In sweet scents and tickles on my face Sweet love like a release of air To be your breath Our breath The breath in between. I long For you.
