Tell me how good does this get to be born unburdened by the hand of another's gift

Tell me in language sublime of the scented wood in a forrested bliss of an ancient rhyme

Hear my prayer in a hallowed tongue flowing from the sacred river's babbling brook of thy kingdoms come

Listen closely and let them go, let them leave the maker's sign so they may find the hidden treasure that once was mine

Then from your glory, do not dispose the higher knowing that pour us forth eternally that we may grow in brotherhood, a timeless creed, a sisterhood of holy seed and greater good

Well intact, well ingrained, well to do forever fallen upon our promise of Shangri~la's eternal reign

We are One
One in the same
Spoken from the mouth of that which has no Name.

If I could find a way
to turn the hands
of time
I’d pick you up,
yesterday
to see what we could find

Perhaps a scenic setting
a nice secluded beach
Sandy shores,
tropical,
if this
your mind would ease

Stepping through a portal
looking in reverse,
penning something
quickly
in the form
of verse

Over-pack your luggage,
forward all your mail
You will find
an island waits…
together
we will sail

And if I find a way
to give the clock a spin
I’ll set it back,
by just a day,
we’ll do it all
again

May God bless thee daughter dear
Take away thy grief
Wiping away each sad tear
Flood thee with relief

Daybreak greet thy eager eye
Hues of crimson bright
Vanishing each weary sigh
Awe thee with delight

resplendent the dawn
painted by a sunlit daub
a picture so grand

Day draws slowly to its close
Deepens into mauve
May thy spirit find repose
Resting in God's love

May tomorrow bloom afresh
All thy dreams come true
Let not happiness regress
Dawn shall hope renew

Dedicated to my dear husband Timothy, hoping this may brighten his evening and morrow

They say "be careful who you make memories with"
I think I was, with you at least.

I don't think I regret any of it,
not you,
not the memories with you,
not any of it.

I was careful.
Now, I'm grateful.

You didn't teach me much,
but you helped me teach myself.

I never said thank you for that.
sad sad showers
since you went away
sad sad showers
falling everyday

the skies shaded
in a gloomy splay
the sun's happiness
no more on display

your leaving
cut deep into my soul
much deeper
than any cavernous hole

our love over
finished and done
our love at end
my world moribund

no solace can I find
for my aching heart
now that you've
torn it apart

sad sad shower
where are the sun's rays
sad sad showers
the showers parlay
