Just how deep are you willing to go
To find your power
Inspite of setbacks
Despite whomever or whatever is stopping you
Is it you?
Search places you never seem to find or seek
Excuses not only hold you back
You will never know how high you can fly if you don't use your wings
Will you solo?
Will you soar?
Will your self doubt leave you down there on the ground or floor?
Never more
Never more
Walk through the door confidently
Bust through that door

Find­ reason for each and every season
All the versions matter
If only you open your eyes and listen with your heart

You live in my heart
Not in hollowed ground
You are not there
You are here,tbere,and everywhere
Hard to think of you as photographs and memories
You left us very young and we were very Young too
Say Hello to Mom and happy you are no longer alone
When monarch butterflies and rainbows find me
I know you are around
Perhaps that
Is why I chase rainbows

All Princes and Princesses please stay clear
No matter where you are
No matter your background
Hedonists too
Some appreciate everything they have and are incredibly grateful
Those who live in Lala in their minds
While others  help people and animals
You  are only  concerned about serving red or white over tbe weekend
As you sit by a pool in your gated community as you await your cleaning services arrival
Why are you so entitled?
Most of us worked hard for what we have and help others and organizations because we care
Why are you so entitled?

Dinner by candlelight
underneath the stairs, down
in the bomb shelter,
dancing to love, peace, and paranoia.
An evening called quiet
resentment, where there's
canned goods and children's games,
Duck & Cover,
or if you prefer,
Heimlich Maneuver.
Then little sleepy heads
go gently into their bunkered beds.
They might not outlive
the threat, but
the plan has a half-life of a chance.

The chapters were written
Her story about her loves and life are done
Those left behind will carry on
The tears and goodbyes have flowed
The tears will return when the period is dotted at the end of the sentence
When her monument is revealed with family message with date of birth and death
Her grandchildren and great grandchildren will share photographs and memories as we close the book on her story
One story ends and one begins

It opens
It closes
It is ajar, it revolves
It slams shut
Every now and again
It opens and leads you to something
You were not looking for but needed to find
Or it was looking for you?
Whether you walk in, walk through or close it
It really is up to you?
What will you do ?
