another time

what of days
my soul was dealt –
and sacrificed to wonder
the sparkle of each star
the river’s will
just how
the mountains shiver
beneath a blanket –
deep and cold
the way the ocean rises
another moon to know
I’ve learned the song
of nightingales
the cry of turtle doves
stood beneath
an ancient elm
counting rings
the map of kings –
making my way
to love

what of days
my soul was dealt

. . .

permission to begin ~

bringsmeback

there’s a place
beyond the dreaming –
a distance
not so far
beyond the pond –
beyond the oldest star

a place
become of verses
scripted unto skin –
whispers with
permission
to begin

as gifted
names to carry –
an almost sacred breath
forever
binds this fragile heart
to death

tis truth
tho somewhat fleeting –
as the measure
of a sigh
– promise
without cause
to wonder why

prophecy ~

destiny, life, love, offering, poet, poetry, purpose, that thing I do

still

from the still
words are fluttered
into life
key by key
come from silence
into something
more than voice –
much more
than me

poems spread
as bees to honey
moths to flame
I don’t know how
what am I
but a means becoming –
another life
is grace allowed

prophecy
or misplaced longing –
from the start
I can’t recall
where I was
when first I noticed
verses
without voice
at all

. . .

why and where the way becomes ~

homeforgood

from this road
onto another
how we bend
how we lean
into a path so unfamiliar –
through the wooded
woods again

I can’t pretend
to know the reasons
why and where
the way becomes
a place we stood
some distant season
making plans
of a sweet unknown

giving heart
our soul’s permission
to write in verses
yet unseen
carving time into a promise
– to find again
the place
we dreamed

. . .

witness ~

golden dawn

gather me
as dust into forever
as light across the morning
tears upon the lake
gather love
and I’ll surrender
all I’m sworn to be –
something more
than witness
to all the dreams
we make

❤

honor, it's what I do, life, love, pages, purpose, rambling, stars, story, submission, time, truth, wonder

saved me

what mirror mine
as daylight breaks
with pencils
once I wrote the sky
forgiving of a moment
I was lost
I was freed –
of ink I never thought
to care
assurance never mine
a stronger hand
than e’er
I thought to lead

pages
lined with story
let them change
as I have changed –
retelling of the past
another me
somewhere
this remembrance
though not for fate
to let
papers split the light
as falling
leaves

. . .

I am forever grateful that my life be told with pencil rather than pen, with moments still undecided by the stars.

 

shadows of you ~

fein

i’m a frayed
recollection
smokey and grey
a vision of promise
by life
overlayed
secrets and signs
hands you once knew
like a path
through the darkest
shadows of you
as lone silver skies
valkries in flight
removed at the slightest
illusion
of light

. . .

indiscretion ~

longing

how sweet
to remember my coming
before
(indiscretion)
a walk ‘neath the pines
filled me with wonder
to coming back now –
from another time
longing
for purpose divine

from touch
came my breath –
and a kiss to endure
would sit in the depths
(the pools) of my soul
forsaken the reasons
for wanting to know
what I knew
from the start –
was my heart
letting go

. . .

moments scattered everywhere ~

destiny, eternal, evidence everywhere, forgotten, life, love, pages, promise, proof, purpose, remembering, sometimes, the path

somewhereyou

from pages torn
a story telling
of times before I cannot say
the journey through
or where I found you
somewhere lost along the way

of fields and flowers
dirt poor mornings –
with honeysuckle pillows there
I knew you
in the sweetest way –
by moments scattered
everywhere

of promise shared
and others buried –
to make a fire of bodies worn
by something more than everafter –
seasons cleft
another born

into a place
of resurrection –
names the least of all we knew
how it was
the soul remembered
the road I took
in finding you

. . .

the fierce embrace of living ~

reflection

were not for love
what purpose this –
for days
beyond the knowing
of graces heaven gathers
in our name

what mortal death
the slightest power
to steal
what none can steal
truth
that even silent lips
proclaim

tis not for us
to understand
the fierce embrace
of living
the gentle tug
of evermore –
a hand that fits
the same
