beginning, destinies, forgiveness, life, love, recollection, trust

were I gifted
wisdom
sight beyond my eyes –
cards to play
a looking glass unglazed
would e’er there be
a moment
you would come
and I would know
which lines were crossed
as means
for letting go
were I offered
absolution
for every time
I looked beyond
a year began
negated now to loss
a rush of recollection
do you remember
how it was
a breath between
each memory
of us

. . .

close enough to now ~

awaiting, destinies, distance, home, life, love, sometimes, time, truth

had i reason
to remember –
a map that held my name
roads I never traveled
feel the distance
just the same
when lights are low
and you are there
awaiting
my return

i hear your voice
sometimes –
feel your presence
with the dawn
sometimes i swear
you linger in the shadows
of my lawn
a smile
I’ve ne’er forgotten
my kiss still
on your lips

had i something
left to barter –
weathered poetry
writ down
the memory of somewhere
we remain
we are found
beyond the reach of never
close enough to now
waiting still the way
would bring you
home

. . .

how we live ~

closer now to heaven than the stars, destinies, endearing comes the day, fate, love, one more sun, seasons, time, truth

there were days
now lost to counting
changed the course
for years beyond –
rectified a fault in living
tattered page
I’d written on

moonlight shimmers
past the dawn –
becomes another day
dreams evolve into each other –
free this trusting heart
to wait

were my fate
but one decision –
to see you there
and let you go
destinies are never easy
– how we live
with all we know

. . .

all I really know, allowance, dancing, destinies, falling, love, returning home, story, truth

adrift
trading stories
of this we dared
one chance
to live
forward
back
forgotten to our shoes
falling
breath seeking
breath
a memory
of us –
music
no one else
could play

. . .

while you were gone –

a name upon my lips, acceptance, and still I would, destinies, grace, life, love, remembered home, time

grace
a sweet illusion
tender greys and blue
silver stones and no one left
to understand
our truth

hand in hand
here and there –
as one
no different we
were lessons come
from waking –
a will of destinies

I’ve wandered far
to find my way –
miles while you
were gone
and for a time
all I had –
was a memory of home

but for one
I make a vow
would not the breadth of life
conceal
when winter folds around
love will warm me
still

. . .

words for rings ~

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

. . .

lessons of love come before ~

knowmenow

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

. . .

trust

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

♥

worlds we cannot see ~

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
