am i ee
i love
springtime
rain.

Huge thunderstorm
came through
here
last night.  

Bright flashes of
lightening,
torrential downpour
cascading down.

Raindrops
batterting
Mother Earth's
thirsty ground.


Puppyhead did not
love it
like i.

She took herself
off to her stair.

The thunder booming
and
shaking,

My poor puppyhead
laid trembling there.

Unable to comfort
her,
to make her understand
how wonderful
this storm is.

Perhaps she feels
something
deeper than me?

More power,
more energy
of
that storm
raging there?





I think I feel a poem coming on...
Many thanks this early morn to Lori Jones McCaffery snd her Perfect triolet DOWNPOUR
thought i felt a poem coming on reading hers...

I am autistic

complicated by dyslexia,

a difficult child (perhaps).


But was I breach birthed,

Cesarian, or premature?


Did I have an over sized

head?


Why did you say to me

when I was still a child

that you wished I was

never born?


I just put flowers on

your grave.

was part Yiddish &

yes, you spotted it

the six is missing

from his Hit-List

because porky’s

are not Kosher,

besides, he was

           a

   Vegetarian.
A virus helped me to stick to my self-care
I like my skin routine and combing my hair
Reading books of poetry is my new love affair

Pains of the past but I shall not be in despair
My God loves me who am I to fear
Breath of fresh air and aromas of home cooked meals

Geez, How I took advantage of the breeze
Is this depression? My mind is starting to run a mock
I'm going to keep busy to get out of this yuck.

May I no longer confuse stillness as lack of progression
May I enjoy this time of rest knowing Jah Bless
May I use all the tools the Lord has given me to move forward
May it be instilled within that God is with me all along
Am I not made in your likeness?

fearfully and wonderfully made feels like it doesn’t apply to me.
And yet, that's how you continue to see me despite the inner me which I sometimes deem as the enemy.


Am I not made in your likeness?

Why does it feel like Jeremiah 29:11 is a distance
Not realizing I’ve already won
Holding on to the hope and future that will become  for thy will be done

Am I not made in your likeness?

So much so that you chose to mold me like clay making sure I’m crafted to the perfection you’ve called me to be


Am I not made in your likeness?

Why should I continue to question your love for me?

Am I not made in your likeness?

Yes, I am made from my father's image. How wonderful you are to choose a girl like me.
