not a poet ~

paint my blush
as roses –
my kiss
a cherry wine
fill me with your story –
and I shall give you
mine

a painter
not a poet –
a writer made to bleed
take my ears
so they might learn
the ways you came
for me

steal my breath
my every word
verse I thought to pen
take of rhyme surrendered
– and write it
to my skin

paint my dreams
by candle –
my morning with your smile
leave the stars
to wonder
where we go

. . .

twilight red ~

eternal, life, love, presence, promise, time, truth, undercurrents, what I know to be true

a sweeter sun
than e’er I thought
would rise to warm my face
tides are rolled
to bring us home –
far beyond
this place

as another dawn
a twilight red –
a place where life
remembers
where dreams are made
and wanting fades
verses heed no longer

for every truth
denied a place
another yet remains
in silence
words are spoken anyway

whispered into being –
solace of a prayer
this I know
where’er I go –
I was come
to stay

. . .

all we've known to love, destiny, divine surrender, goodbye is never gone, letting go, life, truth

carry me over
one bridge at a time
back to the moment
your hand reached for mine
backward in motion
deliberate ease
swept in your arms
like the tide

carry me forward
one breath at a time
into forever
we knew not to wait
on destiny turning
remembering well –
the rush of the waves
the crush
of goodbye

. . .

breath, love, memory, promise, shadows in the hall, silence, spirit, time

I can’t pretend
you make it easy –
how your silence wears me thin
how long –
the time becoming
til I see your face again

it might be years
it could be moments –
or lifetimes still to be
a breath beyond the leaving
is soon enough
for me

. . .

sunday after all ~

a light on the porch, carry me home, forgotten path, journey, life, love, memory, time

the path is worn
as if o’er time –
the way might be erased
tho flowers bloom each Sunday
after all
midnight yearns
and I have learned –
tis not for me to squander
the hope for one more
morning –
wherever promise falls

each time
I think I might be gone
I find the door ajar –
locks once held the windows
rusted now
lights I thought would never burn
stream a golden pasture
echoes ring
remember me –
should e’er your heart
allow

. . .

claimed by wishes ~

breath, heart, home, life, love, moment, star crossed

was never ours
the fault to keep
for stars once realigned
as others claimed
by wishes
before the dawn could rise
when for a moment
I was rocked
beneath a stand of firs –
braced against your song
against your heart
slower still
the move of hands
to capture everything
a string of lights
across the night –
as fates were
broken free

. . .

comfort, little river tennessee, lover, memory, mystery, nature, poetry, soul, spirit, trees, wild

would that I know you
as I know the trees –
as a wind rushing warm
from the south
your sigh as of honey
fabled by bees
as solace when words
no longer appease
would that your hands
be as birds coming home
and liquid as water
flowing wild
over stones

. . .

darkness used to be ~

everything, home, memory, nothing, proof, souvenirs, story, time, travel, trust, wealth

of moments shared
the count too few –
a route for getting back
runs east to west
and north beyond my view
pages torn
and photos faded
where am I to go
when every shred of evidence
is nothing I can hold
no souvenirs
or passion cleft –
no path we walked along
no proof exists beyond my heart
of love we must have known
can’t change the rules
to resurrect
a life before you came
the girl I was before I learned
the taste that was your name
if e’er a means were garnered
and I with time to prove
how long the waste in seeking
all I know as truth
of stars where darkness
used to be
solace for days between
truth I held when no one knew
how it was
to dream

. . .

a place I’ve sworn to be ~

acceptance, all I really know, bliss, love, nothing more than this, poetry, soul memory, time, touch, trust

however lost
are moments past
now folded into days
and pushed against
the places I can’t reach
lessened by my leaving
a memory returns
of another life –
a place
I’ve sworn to be

when choosing comes
take my hand
lest we lose our way
imagine us a moment without end
welcomed recognition
of each eternity –
where love awaits
the choice to love
again

. . .

habits ~

divine blessing, life, love, nature, remembrance, returning us to home, seasons, time, truth

silver swords
pierce the soil
and rise to dwarf the clover
purple sashes wrap
to slender legs
branches bent by evergreen
are pressed against the bloom
of sycamore and dogwood
ancient plum with weed
yet all I feel
as breezes blow
is a reminder to allow
a story here becoming
what I’ve read
and what I know –
how their fragrance
fills my senses
with the memory of snow –
of last September
maples swirling
just beyond my bed –
as falling leaves surrendered
to habits of regret
for harvests lost
as lessons found –
how it was we came
to touch the sweetest season
yet love them all
the same
