breath word worship; angel chant ----- our you us and you we you ----- let the sweat seep, listen kiss worship the wild day. ----- brilliant bellow woman delicate summer woman caramel rhythm concrete magic beat lazy beat song dance most free ----- one two two one. porcelain smooth, be surrounded in love. I am only me thinking, smiling, softly whispering of angels breathing to your sleeping face.

Magnetic Poetry
I believe in love, I believe in hope, I believe in hugs, I believe in jokes. I know there is a happiness, a truth we all can share that encompasses compassion, strength, and care. I believe in life, I believe in humanity, I believe in optimism, I believe in serenity. I believe success will be ours. With friendship true and open hearts is all we need to create life as art.

imagined night
I paint an island for you and for me, I color it brightly - the sky and sea. Then to shine a golden orb, a sun that's there to keep us warm. And this island, you soon shall find, will follow the twinklings of your mind. So if, perhaps, you wish to behold a sailing boat (of perfect mold) in which you want to sail away - Then by and by, you certainly may. Or would you rather sit and stare at dancing stars through crisp air? Why then my darling, it will be true. Anything less isn't enough for you. As for me my desire is not so grand: To sit with you and hold your hand. I'll be the light guiding your way, the supporting strength day after day. Someone to listen, understand, and care, Just think of me and I'll be there. This island I painted, for you and for me (such brightly colored sky and sea) is not a dream but in our hearts reality true, a place to fully love and appreciate you. circa 2000

Island Picture
How far will we go? How much will we give? Where will we know to stop? We share silent thoughts Across untraveled lengths: Always revealing naught. These plans and dreams Fill our heads and days- Times stills and flies, it seems. The load is too much, For just one, alone, But together we'll have The Touch. So step with me and cross To take this one time chance, Or never know of it's gain or loss. 2009

Line in the Sand
In the darkness I see myself too clearly, yet I am blind and lost. Can't quite figure out what I'm doing, or what I want, I'm only scaring myself in the dark. I wish I could run away from my thoughts, free myself from my mind and fly through peace. There is a war in my mind, neither side is right. Or wrong. Only interested in hurting the other; I'm hurting myself. Help! as I drift through space, lost in the black, scared with the unknown of lost opportunities that may have never existed. I need to be freed. 2009

Brooding
How can I think I'm not interested when my heart betrays me by flying when you catch my eye? (my cowardice keeps me away) You exhaust me but I can't resist your pull. (fear? keeps me timid, not my nature) I want you to drift away but I can't seem to let go. (my body is a traitor) I never dreamed of you 'til you stopped speaking to me. (i don't even know what to want) 2009

What to want
I walk the busy streets isolated from the hustle, Crisp wind lifts tendrils of my waves to the textured sky, The roar is silent in my ears - I've walled myself from the world, Walking to my own beat. Forever flat, I could never stop and never tire As my thoughts roam beyond these crowded streets. I remember smells that exist no longer: Cities smell only of concrete and pollution. Childhood smells of wet air, The tangy sweet-sour of decaying plants; Sounds of burbling water and crunchy leaves, Softly shifting branches in the breeze; Tastes of smoke and evergreens; And feels of cold stiff cloth against my skin. I walk nostalgic paths longing for things I've left and will never find in the noisy traffic of the long city streets. 2009

City Walking
The softening sounds bring you to mind in an endless, quiet day. Whispering drops, poofing falls also adds brightness to this overcast grey. To sit in silence sharing ourselves, perhaps with a book and tea. I'll look look up at you, only to find you're staring back at me. The warmth of the room is chilled compared to the heat of my heart while I dream my lonely thoughts from the bright of day into the nightly dark. 2010

Snow Day
So much of me to give to you Now that you're absent, what shall I do? The air is too still, the rooms so silent without your silver words holding back the quiet. My sun has fled to bluer skies yet the love in this soul erases the tears and the cries. Be at ease, for my eyes are dry dear heart, Just know you have brought me joy and left your mark. 2009
