Unfair question asked

His words pierced my heart,
leaving me sleepless, damaged
with no just answer

mr-wytmba im-dm

Degrees of Agony

Let the fires rage --
Replace throes of a seared soul
with burnt flesh pain

Faded memories

Crimson pain fades to
roseate future with the
steady tick of time

Stardust

Stardust fills her days
while twilight brings earthbound dreams --
Life lived divinely

December in Texas

Green crowd roars hurrah
Padded boys crash and tumble
Red crowd triumphant

Time on my hands

Pink slip bereavement
every day's a Saturday
time to contemplate

Morning fog

Gentle mist settles
cool and wet on salty cheeks --
Gaea's soothing kiss

Ear of the heart

Same words spoken, heard
yet meanings misunderstood
filtered through the heart

It is written

fate - not in the stars
but in the strength of two hearts
who hope, endure, love

Go see it!

Distractions

Radio tuning
rear view mirror mascara
roadside rubbernecks

Give and Take

blue prairie crocus
pollen-dusted honey bee
a fleeting exchange

Storm

Slow grey clouds drift by
shadows flow across the plains
burst of raindrops fall

Awakening

My world was once filled
with wander, wonder, change, chance --
time for unrooting

Before rising

warm skins embracing
kittens purring in each ear
ineffable joy

Winter turn-offs

Dry skin scraped red-raw
Static charge puts the wrong spark
in a lover's kiss

Celestial reunion 2008

Crescent moon nestles
with Jupiter and Venus
shining in night sky

Winter comes early

Chilled fingertips brush
windswept hair from pink-pinched cheeks
goosebumps on bare arms

Welcoming

tiny red faced babe
wailing hard, not world ready
sister's comfort pats

Grateful, and yet

Warm, fed, safe, and cared
still the human heart hungers
to fill nameless voids

Reconnect

Out of the blue call,
"We've been thinking of you, dear"
Me, out of the blues!
