I walked in
lacking expectation.
But there you were,
finally,
looking in my direction.
I needed to see into
your clouded window,
recognize who sits
on your dusty throne.
When our eyes met,

I wish I could mail myself to you. I would shrink inside this white envelope. I would lay there for the long ride. Keeping myself sealed tightly inside. I would wait the two days it takes to be delivered. . . . more

Inspired by one of my favorite songs, "Deep Water" by Seal

Where you'll find the silence
Many times it is welcoming

My heart is aching
There's so much I want to say
But there's really nothing to say
Because it won't change anything
And at the end of the day
I'm feeling empty and frustrated . . . more

Carefully tend the garden,
protect her from the weather.
She's only out of season,
not gone away forever.
She amazed us with her beauty,
bloomed in vivid colors,
graced us the summer long,

To hurt is to feel.
To only feel pleasure, you would not understand pain.
Emotions rolling through the veins, hold reactions unknown.
A body crying, a soul pouring into the world.
A part of you left . . . more

God couldn't be everywhere, and so he created mothers. Anonymous.
A red headed little girl were you
Special to this world
You had to have that special cow's milk
Hair with bouncing . . . more

What better gift

in the open arms of my love.
My children are grown,
their lives are their own now.
It's time for me.
It's Mother's . . . more

I wish I were you, you could be me.
If you saw through my eyes it would be easy to see.
If you felt my pain you would then understand.
You would not judge, you would make a stand.
You tell me you love . . . more

"She's lovely" I said
And she glowed with quiet pride,
Smiling at a secret shared.
