a new day, gather me home, home, life, love, seasons, time, trust, what i remember
stars have lingered
on the lawn –
beyond the reach of
prying eyes
fingers interweaving
a house from falling birds
truth remains
in sacred maps
– roads we’ve yet
remembered
a place we dare
become
to save the stars

my heart races
day remembers me back
twenty four thousand
six hundred and thirty five
an empty page
save for dreams
falling forward
against my longing
a beginning there
sunlight scatters
through easy windows
where smiles
remain
bigger than any grief
i can name
any voice i can give
edge into the silence
sweeter still
than coffee
are arms reaching
only this
to find
. . .

already now
the twilight rests
against the threat of night
where dreams
I can’t recall
await my sleep
already there
I’m missing you
without regard for days
another dawn
beyond my will to keep
a name unspoken
in silence stills
to bring this aging heart
to tears
released the ache
of living left –
to find of heaven
moments here
a place removed
unclaimed by grief
beyond the realm
of yesterdays
returning light
an endless sun –
where I am yours
to love
always
. . .

forgive
this surrender
an almost forgotten
nights you lay down
with a memory
of mine
places forsaken
longing
decided –
by wishes
held up on the night
whatever i waited
was for this
that i pined
but knew not the words
to write down
on the way
even now
i remember
each coming awake
aware of your essence
in the space
between knowing –
was always
for certain
my way home
to you
. . .

he said
the wait is over
not quite
tho still the same
as once you loved
i held you
the memory of flame
before there was
this wonder
this moment to discern
miles between
the getting back –
a destiny
returned
she said
i’ll leave the candle
regardless of the time
nights
where fell a star
we wished upon
i’ll keep the coffee
warmer
for the time it takes
to dream
i’ll wait
whatever fate
is come
for me
he said
i’ll be the river
and you
my favored stones
let me roll
beneath the heavens
to sleep
beside your soul
she said
i’ll be the sunrise
if you hold up the night
when breakfast comes
i reach
for you to find –
the way
that was beginning
years
before i knew
he said
i’ll wait all morning –
to wait the night
for you
. . .

here
is the place
saved
for your hands
another
saved for your heart
here are the lands
held for you
mine
a house
come together
of wishes
of stone
here are the moments
awaited our will –
worried as time
fell away
a real
everafter
even now i believe
sits with the shadows
i prayed
. . .

once confessed
that nothing mattered
story to write –
less to dream
somewhere still
were ancients gathered
saved my want
for words unseen
til one day
some everafter –
home was
breath upon my skin
dreams became the least
of living
nights i lay awake
for him
. . .

how welcome this
deserving ease –
a hand to know me well
words to congregate
as destinies
to start
lest i know
the way was always
more than i could reason
cleft for you
a home within my heart
tis only this
remembering
how it was
that afternoon –
held beneath
a span of wanting pines
wondered at this place
a beginning
waited long
love that could be measured
as a consequence –
a sigh
. . .

whatever has passed
echoes of summer
as last year’s winter
three feet below
a remembrance of grace
petals emerging –
revealed as the spring
to our soul
for moments like this
will is forsaken
dreams we let sleep
another one day
far past the morning
came as desire
to seal our forgiveness –
to steal us away
. . .
