What can you give of jewelry? All that I can and more What of the gift of matrimony? As soon as I can afford. What of supplying a residency? I’ll find a home and we will stay. What of a sense of security? I’ll protect of you always. What of degrees of the leisurely? I’ll […]

Awake and Happy
The warm rays of sunlight shine through your window. Rise. You stretch your wonderfully functioning body towards the sky. Shine. A blissful sounding chorus of songbirds graces your ears. Rise! You allow a warm, full, radiant smile to stretch from ear to ear. Shine! A popping sound of percolation comes with the smell of coffee. […]

Everywhere that I look Everything that I see Positivity Every place I glimpse Each direction gazed Beauty All areas I canvas In the world I survey Artistry Of the sites that I’ve been And views taken in Majesty Each point of attention All that greets my eye Incredibility Every direction I stare All spots where […]

Absolute Obsolescence
Do you travel long, deep into the fall, to the same towns and the same strip malls? Do you take the same escalators and ride easy elevators? Are you circling the same tracks, trying to find your way back? Are you spinning in the same circle trying to break a cycle. Do you find that […]
Second-Flight First-Crawl
I wonder what the caterpillar feels when it stops inching forward. I wonder what it is thinking, when it decides to stop chewing on leaves. I’m curious what is going on inside, when it begins to surround itself within a cocoon. It’s fascinating to ponder whether this tiny, awkward, slinking creature, realizes the impact of […]
Fear No More
We are weakness, crippling doubting disorienting continuous self-revaluation that gnaws at the core of our existence. We are the scabbard that houses the sword of ineptitude. We are the holster for the weapon that we believe defends our frailty. We are the meek voices whispering second thoughts to our confidence. We are our greatest detractors our […]

Tornadoes and Falling in Love
Merry-go-rounds and Tilt-a-whirls. Roller coasters and roundabouts. Spinning tops and spirals. Ferris wheels and bottles. Wheel-of-Fortune, doing flips. Somersaults and cartwheels. Bedrooms after many drinks. Car wheels as we travel. The tires on our bikes. Our bodies as we dance. Tornadoes and whirlpools. Records, and falling in love. We love the circling, rotating, revolving feeling, […]
