these hands
have nurtured promise
and still
they let you go –
were not a lack
of privilege
to love you so
garnered fate –
feared your heart
might change the weight
of life –
prayed when there was
nothing
to defend
these hands
they’ve earned
the right to feel –
graced
a tender land
yearned for one last
mystery
with grace to
understand
you were mine
and I was here –
who shall write the rest
caught within your
wishes –
warmed beneath
your breath

. . .

far from this beginning ~

was a time
your hand took mine
and I was
welcomed home
familiar as that first
deep breath of life
you smile
and I remember
just how you loved me so
a kiss I memorized
ten thousand nights ago
so far from this
becoming –
a memory of then
another time beginning
the same sweet love
to know

. . .

the long way back ~

in another place
I was –
crushed beneath the shadows
bowing down my head
chasing truths
do you remember
how it was –
the giving in to silence
as the echo of ten thousand
tired boots
a night succumb
to whispers –
a morning without shame
lights beyond the highway
burning sand
do you remember
was I with you
when the mountains
fell around
as waters rushed
to fill an empty land
I know you now
as I knew you then
another life
with nothing changed
this sweet goodnight
bathed in light
is reason
why we came

. . .

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

. . .

wordless words ~

rockiemountainme

a whisper
come from somewhere –
a prayer divides the dark
a buried deep
reminder
of something
someone said
held apart
together
hands becoming hands
lifetimes left
for telling –

wordless words
instead

. . .

all the world ~

home

evening burns
against my skin –
as I recall another
a winters night
ten thousand wishes made
your hands
becoming all the world
had I lived
for just one life
to carry you –
a kiss
I chose to save

. . .

life lines ~

foralways

you’re the one
I thought incapable
of living within my heart
captured to the memory of hands
a truth beyond deceiving –
lines where nothing fades
– the beating starts
and you’re already
there

. . .

hands to fit ~

savingme

created I
another me –
love I might have known
a dream
(so close)
the touching
never slept
in sheets
ten thousand thread
or more –
who was I to tell
of roads I walked
long –
with dirty soles
to learn again
the truth became
hands to fit
(my own)
paths where none
were gifted
save one
to take me
home

. . .

silent rhyme ~

tis not for warmth
these hands are folded –
or curved to catch
the morning light
moved as silent birds to daybreak –
across and with
each sweet delight

was not for grace
or prayers unspoken –
steeple pointed toward the sky
felt the sound
of angels gathered –
just beyond the reach
of I

beyond the pool
of secrets spilling –
kisses rise from words the same
breath was given rhyme
for telling –
loving wings these hands
became

the dreamer’s map
of north star guiding –
someone asks (as someone knows)
what of hands
were made for speaking –
what of words
we meant to hold
