A little poemlet or something I thought I would share … from some time ago
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

such is love...
the heart opens, blossoms
much like a flower
opens and blossoms...
welcoming the morning dew
and the sun's warmth

A little something from a while back… not sure what.

... behind closed doors
and drawn shades...
laughter and voices
footsteps and memories
echo
up and down
the walls
and the halls
of the memory house ...

A little something from a while back…

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

β€œThese days , I have been
void of energy...
that special light that motivates
and inspires
to dance, to create, to laugh,
to walk with power
and a spring in the step.
I am not sure where it has gone
but I hope it returns... soon.”

A poemlet from a while back…
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
two lost and lonely souls
somehow find each other
both are scarred and scared
yet tenderly, cautiously
they reach out ...
longing for a connection.

Kitty of jade, with the amethyst eyes
what are you thinking?
You must be happy --
I can hear your purring from over here.
You have this look --
you are plotting something, aren't you?
Your wise eyes read my soul...
but reveal nothing.

... Only you can write
what you need to say,
in the way that
it needs to be said,
to be authentic
to be your story
to be your song
to be your poem.
