wishes past –

what melody
the maple sings
against the morning rain
strummed beneath
the whispers
to beat the branches
low

i wonder
could you hear me
though lifetimes
lay between
the moment gone before
and this we know

before i felt
forever
was saved
of wishes past –
stars already fallen
from nights
i loved you so

. . .

mine to love ~

sometimes
still I gather
moments by their stems
arranged in peaceful
place
against my heart
where essence
so familiar
blooms
to take my breath
reminding me
the way
was mine
to love

. . .

always

As of late, it seems I struggle with words.

No, that’s not right. It’s not a struggle really. It seems more I am resigned to a place unfamiliar (and yet not). It is a quiet peace, perhaps even a place created by grief, but not unwelcomed or uncomfortable.

It is a time of adjustment, acceptance, and clarity ~ a period of understanding that I have wondered might be related to aging, loss, or faith. Regardless, it is not cursed or filled with anxiousness. It is an unexpected blessing, a realization of grace, of love.

I miss my daddy, but it is not an ache that leaves me restless, looking for answers that I already possess. Rather, it is the little things where I find myself wishing he could share it with me (just before realizing that he does). When I round the curve on the road home and notice a group of more than twenty deer in the field near the woods; in wings fluttering along the fence line as I tend the feeder; a light through the window when I awake to the sound of my name.

Blessings.

Time is nothing but an invisible marker, a thread binding us forever to a moment – or rather binding the moment to us so that it is always the same, as near as our next breath. Ours.

We are never without love.

ten thousand lives
to bring me round
a wish before i spoke
how long the wait
was weighted me
how many
will i know
before i understand
the gift that is
your love
how long these arms
made empty
when you go

the path

near the pond

is cool to my feet

the stars

anchored in place

by a dream

I awakened

lifetimes ago

moments untethered

as remnants

of grace

. . .

a deep shade of night ~

hold

I painted my walls
a deep shade of night
floors –
the essence of sun
I slipped through the shadows
and ran through the weeds
out past the places
I remembered
undone

every dream
unpretending
to be as before –
times I swore not to sleep
anymore
lest truth
find me drifting
in realms beyond this
moored to forever
– cursed by a kiss

another one day
tis my fate to recall
how my tears
just beginning –
were destined to fall
as rain
to the flowers
bloomed in my stead –
as rivers of somewhere
roll ‘neath
my bed

. . .
