All are Beautiful
like a bright full
gold on the darky
sky...
sweet to listen
Tasty to hear...

A universe poems
Write me,
I need your words
To ease my mind
I need your thoughts
To drive me wild.

Deanna
when ever i hear your name
my heart instantly
sinks
to the bottom of a
sea.
These are the hands that will guide you to greatness,
These are the hands that will stay through the years,
These are the hands that will celebrate good times,
And these are the hands that will wipe away tears.

These are the hands that will love you forever;
When you are weak they will help you feel strong,
And, right now, since these hands are entwined together
These hands are precisely where they belong
Recently I was asked to write and perform a hand-binding wedding ceremony for two of the loveliest people I know while I was dressed as a dragon. It's definitely one of the best things I've ever done, and I doubt I'll ever do anything like it again! This is the poem I wrote for the special moment.

I’ve been thinking
Of Corona Virus

Play some
My Sharona
It may be
Over Soon
And You Know
I love you
To the moon and back.
i bathe in serene
sleepy mountainside ledges
kissed by lips of fall

Raven
I used to be your scapegoat,
responsible for everything,
treated like an infection.
I was just so shy and quiet,
your perfect prey.

I chose to ignore you,
pretend to be the strong girl,
but I had so many wounds
hidden in darkness.

I carried on day after day,
your calls at my back.
I numbed the pain
what else could I do?
Numb and lost.

I grew older,
became stronger,
but the fragile girl
still lives deep inside of me.
Lovely Lady robed in white,
Help me , once more I pray;      
Bring light in my darkest hours,
Once more, I ask you this day.

When I'm tempted with evil,
And help I am in need of,
Have Christ send sufficient grace
,And bountifully his love.

For It is by thy gentleness,
I'm encouraged to be meek;
The good that is in others,
Mother, it, help me to seek.  

There are  many joys in life,
Some appearing in disguise;
Help me find them, dear Mother,
With a heart that's truly wise.
