VIEW FROM WATERCREST ST.

Clouds that look like something
           A novice wedding baker
                    Would pipe onto a cake

Spread themselves across
      The distant mountain tops
                   In swooping shades of
                            Peach and cobalt blue.

The sheet cake of
          Remaining sky
                Resembles Blueberry Yogurt
                        Swirled with apricot jam.

As quickly as this
         Wondrous dawning scene
                               Appears, it fades

To ordinary morning
          Clouds, and sky that hints
                      Of rainstorms and
                                         Humidity.

What did I do yesterday
          That earned me
                      This reward today.

I don’t know where it went
  I just know it’s gone
    I don’t know how it happened
      I just know I did it
        I don’t know what it even was
          I just know I miss it
            I don’t know where to go to find it
              I just know I have to try

Breathe into a red balloon, how it grows. Release your grip and watch it go.

Breathe out in the bitter cold, see it rise. Watch it vanish before your eyes.

Breathe on a window pane, fog your view. Trace a heart and wipe it through.

queen of hearts
those flowers over there are the ones I planted for you
months ago
they require water three times a day and don't like to be out in the sun for too long

sometimes I forget

they look pretty now
but they'll die soon
"flowers"
Flocks of birds
Across the morning sky
Tell me
I’m not in the city any more.

Don't know what they are, just know they're beautiful.

Open mind

but closed doors.

Take my breath.

And make it yours.

Whenever I was nervous before, mother used to embrace me.
Now whenever I am worried, I will spend a lot of weeping sitting alone in a corner,
Why mother does not talk about your mind with you.
Mother feels a lot about hugging you. I want to keep my head on your lap.
Mom remembers that moment when you succeed in hugging me while you are successful.
It is very reminiscent, Mom teach your new things by becoming your teacher, giving your unique knowledge.
Mother remembers a lot, make friends, make fun of laughter, joining with my craze & with my happiness.
Mother Misses a lot, understand my silence And you asked me what happened to you?
Mother remembers a lot, sometimes with anger, chanting quietly, then shuffle your affection on the head.
Mother I have become very lonely in the crowd of this world, you again call me back in your world.
Give me that love of affection for me……..
A mother is a female parent: mothers nurture and mother children.

I wonder , what would had happen?
If I would had gotten everything right.
With completely obeying God in everything.
I wonder, what would had happen ?
If I would had follow that beautiful Lady?
All the way to where she was going in Cali.
When I was but a mere 22 years old back then.
I wonder , why God has allow me to be like this.
To place awesome challenges that would help others.
Then at the last minute fail him and them as well.
By running away which was what I had always done.
Now that I have finally set down roots here in Maryland
