how many seasons
have passed while I lay sleeping
dreaming of the sun
this time of sorrow
is more than tears – a river
to unremember
surrender me
the coming home –
remembrance of another
who knew me well
would never tell –
or hurt for swords
intended
my ways along
the rural road –
run south – then east –
then skyward
where I shall rest
in arms of love –
my tattered soul
restored
. . .

distant drums beat sweet
echoes of woods never walked
eyes to strain the night
stories writ to skin
dreams to recall our longing
whisperings we hushed
a heart coos softly
of happiness retreating
the dove cannot change
a dawn breaks clearly
the ghost of feathered knowing
destiny becomes
ancient smoke rises
wonders defy our vision
awaken new eyes
the day will become
when fire will burn too deeply
our spirits to mourn
. . .

seek me to gardens
as memory gathers round
blossom bled from seed
wear me to dances
forbidden this destiny
one another waits
sworn unto secret
as heavens forgotten now
graces I am still
petals yearn for bloom
one to know each surrender
loves me loves me not
. . .

beyond this moment
stars remember us again
winds to bring us home

I will be away for a few days for a much needed
visit with the mountains and the trees. I shall return
soon, with poems disguised as leaves.
Love,
Bobbie

I am memory
bittersweet my salvation
nothing matters more
you will choose for me
a moment of wonderous
o’er a lifetime less
silken dew on green
petals opened and waiting
the essence of life
pitch black the midnight
stars fade in comparison
uncertain return
the dying despair
curse my fragile existence
regret for my touch
were reason to be
to return without knowing
where I shall linger
what seasons to pass
but a glimmer of flame burned
for love remembered
immortality
I am the taste of summer
drying on parched lips

if your tears would flow
to fill the empty oceans
I will dry them all
if your heart should ache
beyond words to remember
I will write for you
if your love were lost
within another’s promise
I would come for you
if the world stopped today
I would keep this memory safe
if my heart should cease believing
my soul will burn a candle

Once in the canyon
The breath of God engulfed me
And Light I became
Once in the meadow
Flowers woke to call my name
Dew kissed the dawning
Mysterious dreams
Await eternal knowledge
Books to be written
Once in ten thousand lifetimes
In the reaching we arrive
