will fate decide
the coming back
familiar though it seems
to find anew your hand in mine –
trading words for rings
how surely now
my heart is stilled
by the thought of letting go
longing wears a favored gown –
becoming all
I know
a fleeting smile
and lifetimes fade –
at the memory of your face
moments cleft from heaven
are evidence
of grace
. . .

off late
I’ve grown cold
to the ways of the world
bruised by the
easing of time
subdued by the splendor
of dreamless
intent
names rubbed away
by pieces of light
fixed to my window
by lacey white sparrows
winged past the
curtains
one night
as I lay
silent beside
the remembrance
of more
cursing the lessons
of love come before
a moment inclusive
of always
hands
O how lovely
they loved
. . .

were there storms before
we lasted –
and now the signs are gone
scars remain
but not with thought to loss
or changes due
their coming back
stories writ by time
sweetened now by tenderness
and truth
forgiven are the choices
were come the sake of love
would not I know
I’d make the same again
flush against the feeling
blossomed by the bliss
wishing long on stars
still hang the sky
lace is streamed
from evergreen
robins crowd the yard
where morning bread
was scattered from the porch
silhouette of winter shapes
the fences falling down
I sit awhile
wrapped in solitude
a quilted patch
called living
no pattern but of love
tiny hands once stitched
and cursed and made
destinies to warm me
more I’ve yet to see –
coffee cold
but still it makes me sing
where we were
we are the same –
as silence keeps the dawn
showers fall
and there the seeds
redeemed
quietly the sunlight stirs
life in shades of cedar –
witness to the waking
pulls the love
around
. . .

give me to laughter
one more everafter –
and suffer not long the choice
to receive
ribbons unspooling
destinies fooling
as midnight
meant maybe
and let us believe
there are worlds
sapphire blue
the color of eyelids –
and places held closer than blame
sworn to our keeping
as somebody’s presence
when left us to answer
of questions the same
to where we began
in the starting all over
was heaven now given
a time and a place
as near to our own –
another forgiven
was held to our being
creation retraced
scored by the letting
of light into loving –
everything
less than this moment (this now)
the gift of endurance –
with every salvation
longing made whole
in the love
we allow
♥

let it be
beyond the need to know
of songs – the heart –
unwritten
but carried by a swarm
of ancient bees
beyond the reach
of destinies
wilderness grows wilder
nectars of forever
are weaved into the trees
whispered by the waters
as passed between the canyons
flowing ever gently
o’er stones
by sorrow thrown
fell against a morning
years before our waking –
sealed with us
uncertain fate
as one again we know
might ever we be witness
eyes to search the darkness
a flame –
another flicker –
reveals familiar ways
as those to understand us
winds retain the memory
of birth –
a new hope rising
from worlds we cannot see
hands to hold
remembered us –
as wonder without reason
swarms of bees still gather
how sweet
our name to know
