The Day After the Day After

As I put the dead tree in the garbage My mind wonders over these past days The glimmering twinkling lights Now packed in boxes away I wonder through a mind full of new memories My heart warmed by the love that we share Visions of faces, smiling and bright As they dig through the treasure [...]

Mountain Wisdom

Spirit of the mountain, Holding strength impartial Roots planted deeply, A part of the earth mother Heights piercing the air, Mount into sky above Clouds dance from peak to peak, Spiraling and spin Hear my voice, my majestic friend I’ve come to listen once again When I’m blessed to walk, Under your towering trees To [...]

Two As One (re-write with art)

Two As One I rejoice in you Pull you ever closer Wrap you in my arms and caress Inhale the essence of you Feel the heat of you upon my skin I gently nestle the back of your neck Run my fingers across you shoulder Butterfly touch flitting down you arm I feel the shudders [...]

The Reason

In an almost unbearable burst of enlightened thought A moment of crystal clarity, and unity of mind and soul I find myself here, at this spot, at this time And ask, what we all boon to ask The question all must ask of them-selves to become whole Why? There must be a reason, a plan, [...]

Colors, flashing, bright, rainbows spinning The vortex of reality forced into my awareness Combined to blind my eyes in cascading its madness Sound, a roaring din of noise, Voices hidden in the immensities of the silence The silence falling with deafening chill on the ears of my soul Flavors, biter, tart, sweet, sour The biting [...]
