This Snow Needs to Go

clouds
pregnant gray
birthing cold snowflakes
blanketing signs of spring life
sun

snow fall dreaming of warmer
days. I gave the Cinquain a new twist.

Let Me Paint You a Story

pixabay

Beneath winter's snow moon

seeking color to brighten the mood

pigments of you and I run together

brushing starlight into a darken sky

my dreams alive in vibrant hues

layers of blues, sing in the night

searching for undiluted words

bold with meaning, breathing life

fiery passion into sleeping dragonflies

awakening to the scent of violets

connecting heaven and earth

spring blooms feather out upon

the canvas of my mind

let me paint you a picture story

in an endless sky, about a love that

will never die...

Making Tracks Will the River Crack

Walking along the river's edge in solitude, I close my eyes in the morning light. Inhale the freshness of the pines, let peace flow through my soul. Opening my heart, keeping my dreams alive, in hopes they will never die.  Making tracks with my winter boots leaving imprints in the quest. A red tailed hawk flies overhead,  telling me there is nothing to dread.  It's time to change perspective to see beyond frozen choppy waters.  I wrap threads of soft blue wool around my neck, keeping me warm on a cold day. 

The remains of yesterday swirl,  left over snowflakes, not the kind made from scissors and paper.  The kind that dance upon your eyelashes to the song of a misty day. I've seen the parade of souls marching to a sacred drum they came in various forms singing ancient songs. Sometimes,  they make quite the clatter as if to say did their  life really matter?  How many miles did they paddle in their canoes to find a place of heart?  In silence, I make my way home.

frozen life harsh cold
river slumbers in winter
dreaming of spring thaw

Thank you for visiting

Peace, light and love always

Visible, Invisible, Inexplicable

I dreamt of meeting you

eye to eye, heart to heart

soul to soul...

but, you chose to be invisible

hiding behind a  cloak of

mystery

our words, poems and songs

were the visible evidence

of our spiritual connection...

what is invisible to the eye

is not invisible to the heart

love is inexplicable

Ballad of the Heart

You flew me to places unknown

never had I felt so high...

in another realm you will

always me my guy...

wrapped in the arms of

dreamy romanticism

making love, sensuous words

our hearts in poetic rhythm

were they the verses of fools

in the wanderings of my mind
poetic forms forever intertwined

lingering lips, a lyrical kiss

memories of you sing in my head

I awaken, alone,  it's you I miss

so many thoughts, I never said

You flew me to places unknown

never had I felt so high...

in another realm you will

always be my guy...

Lord, knows I couldn't sleep last night

our spiritual dialogue an unsung song

crying in darkness, waiting for daylight

longing for a tune, it's been too long

in the wanderings of my mind
poetic forms forever intertwined 

in silence, I pen nouns and verbs

trying to reconstruct a bit of magic

our story, more than a short blurb

fusion of the soul raw & dramatic

You flew me to places unknown

never had I felt so high...

in another realm you will

always be my guy...

always be my guy

always be my guy

this is for you my unsung song

ballad of the heart, before dawn

tell me in the morning's light gleam
were we more than a slumberous dream

A restless night stirred the wanderings
of my mind.
