You look beneath each unturned stone
where four leaf clover shrouds the path
To wonder, thinking all alone,
what brought about this aftermath

As daisies clamor ‘bout the field
and dragonflies abandon hope
When orchards passing off their yield
will find it hard to even cope

Lest not a day of future themes
reflect this distance you now feel
For merely but a stack of dreams,
horizon’s light may soon reveal

So take this orchid from its stem,
a small reminder of the past
And question not who follows them
but cherish every foot step cast

Come hold your head up to the sky
as banners wave and bluebirds sing
Extend your hand to passers by,
much more than just a thoughtful thing

For life is but a fleeting friend
not here for very long at all
It’s up to you to just transcend
and rise above before the fall

I was drowning in the desert
Coming out of this Egypt
Were nothing ever grew
Along with all my hope in you
The ******* that I've known
With all the pain been sown
Maybe on the other side he abides
Seraphim guided my way they flew
Into the land of milk an honey
Entering into promised Eden now
The garden filled with only love
intensely searching  to find my Boaz
By a brook on a mountain of Topaz
I saw him laying under an apple tree
He was weaving a flower wreath
The moment he looked saw I was approaching
He beckoned me to come closer
Our eyes met like blue magnets
Reflected in suns glazed moon beams
Smiling as stars twinkle  bright we touched
He placed the wreath upon my head
Did kneel before me too & said my Queen
I've waited all my life for you to come my way
Then kissed me with such passion overcome I swayed
He carried me up to our home atop topaz mountain
amongst the apple trees where warm honey flows
Blanketing ourselves in bliss of loves ever afterglow

We climbed long up to love mountain
Our temperature had been dropping
Blindsided at its highest peak
Only to slide down its fountain
Its slippery ***** then sink
You fell so fast head first
Reaching out my hand to clasp
because my wings were clipped
Trying to save us both to last
From the endless dark abyss
Never knew I’d fall so hard
Heart first still waiting for the
First responders to come pick up
Our shattered remains for rescue
But told them just to leave us two
Because it didn't matter we're thru
lying on the canyon floor months
later a pair of white swans came
Into both of our night time dreams
Spoke our of promises, ring things of same
They said rise up again take each others hand
This broken time shall now be mended
Soul mate love is forever will not be rescinded
Knowing when given this love will never be ended
Its said the Swans mate for life and often when their mate dies the one left behind dies shortly after from a broken heart.

Ever sit up straight,
Deep Am, but you’re
Not dreaming,
Anymore?

To wake in a state,
Where you question,
Existence,
All of it.

Dream state, wide awake, heartbeat, breathe deep, drift to sleep.

Since I already knew
I'd die of a broken heart
I made preperations
treating my death like art

Stop worrying
I took care of everything
the guests and the burying
even ordered flowers in early spring
I'm still around. If anyone was actually wondering where I've been I apologize. I missed posting on here so I might get back to it more often. No promises. I hope you, whoever reads this, are having a good day, week, month.. and if not, hang in there. Just hang in there.

The woman in the window
  Looks out beyond the glass
Beyond the reach of her whispers
  Befogged upon windowpanes glance

Farther  than  the  bounds
  Her own breathe imbues
Out of reach her long fingered touch
  Tracing her murmurs on looking glass dew
Grasping for the shadowed artifacts
  Only time does nonchalantly drift past

Perched alone upon a cloud of silence
  Her thoughts eddy in soundless swirl
Spinning like dizzying shadows
  Swallowed by a thirst for light

The other side of window beckons
  Only she knows she’s looking out through a sigh;
Seeing no one familiar looking back ―  
  For what hidden jewels within abide

She dreams of dancing leafless by daylight
  Twirling beneath the whispering willows sway
Just a step away from being free
  Just a step away from feeling alive

With first step beyond imprisoning hesitation
  Crossing over the threshold of a dream
Through a liberating portal outside the glass
  Just on the other side of the windowsill ...
