You're not counting
tolling years
but you do count
despite your fears
You touch our lives
You share your heart
I am so grateful for your art
May you find unexpected happiness among your treasures !
                              Thank you for being here.

sweet evening rest  

soothe the flailing tendrils'
                         potentials pulsing brightly

All of this can wait
                   until I'm back in play
K Mae May 2013
on knees all day I pray
******* newborn shoots
****** vibrant from my earth
nurturing roots in darkness
soothing love moist mantle
under sun benign*
*expanding joy in growth

flowers close at night
all silent
open wide when warm sun light
humans breathe in no such rhythm
in our walls electric blight
earth rest cycle we deny
and never mind the moon and tide
continuing agenda must dance
weariness to override
until at last relief delivered
maybe it comes all too soon
wisdom or the swoon of illness
finally we enter stillness
K Mae May 2013
awake

the realm of sleep
disturbing

try this or that

but only honest courage

whispers why
K Mae May 2013
As critic rails
   self doubt prevails
exhausting weight
          a sorry fate
Sweet muse must hide
       from caustic thought
   this lonely ride
            illusion fraught
In this day offered gift of choice
  to which aspect the thrill of voice ?
Or shall I hide in self thought shame ?
    glad or mad distraught the game
         If thought begets
             and love makes shine
   what is to lose by
              claiming mine...?
**the dream I came to live for
K Mae Apr 2013
moved all day
satisfied
with fragrant daffodil bouquet
cooked with honey
loved his wrist
after dinner goodnight kissed
but night is silent
I want more
not to do
but feel
satisfied
doesn't last
