Through the years
the layers peel
Lovers come undone
Lust and laughter
disappear soon after
the vows that made them one
Secrets in the night
become ammunition in flight
wounding hearts of good . . .

I exist...
immobilized
Enveloped
in Payne's Grey
swallowed whole
into it's darkness
You found me
Each day you brought
a new bouquet!

Life
You showed me
Infinity . . .

I consider myself to be somewhat of an intelligent person. I'm also a good person. I donate to charities, help out friends in need, you get the idea. And I have been blessed with a great husband . . .

Last week we cut your hair
A rite of passage for me.
For me
it was almost saddening...is there such a word?
You
letting go
of your goldilocks, princess dreams and

All in the snip snip . . .

The altruistic hand
is loyal and true
The altruistic hand

The altruistic hand

The Altruistic Hand

Let it be known that I consider my thirteen year old daughter to be a highly intelligent child. But as you know, kids will never cease to surprise you.

Okay, I do not consider myself to be a "writer". I do engage in writing poetry and essays, journaling and such and truly enjoy it but I would not call myself a "writer". Nor do I consider . . .

It was
somewhere in my waking daze
After
my kaliedescope of dreams
had been shaken and turned
back into confetti
My mind creaks into conciousness
