More Wrong Than Right Beneath the layers of this madness I sometimes catch a glimpse of how it used to be It surprises and touches this heart closed off in self-healing In honesty, I know those moments I remember are only the special ones The others are buried deep in a pit if animosity whereContinue reading “More Wrong Than Right”

In The Lonely Hours – Poem of the Month – December 2022
In The Lonely Hours In the lonely hours consumed with the things I cannot control I drown in the sadness of my life My decisions, right at the time are haunting and daunting Fearing no escape from the gate-less prison of my choices Guilt overwhelms as duty reigns supreme When all seems lost a caringContinue reading “In The Lonely Hours – Poem of the Month – December 2022”
When Time Stands Still
When Time Stands Still It is still early as the sun has barely broken the dawnSky, a pale yellow-grey and dew clings tightly to the grassThe early bird yet to waken and give us his morning songA blanket of silence comforting and welcomePrecious solitude invaluable before facing the dayIt is in these moments that timeContinue reading “When Time Stands Still”
Through Any Window
Through Any Window Through a windowRaindrops fell silentlyPooling in miniature puddlesBetween cobblestonesWater gently washing awayThe day’s grimeReminiscent of how, in quietness,and behind the scenes of everyday eventsThe universe repairs and renewsA flower with thirst quenchedDry, barren fields ready to receive seedDirt slowly becoming mud and disappearingA metaphor for life that sometimesStops you in the tracksofContinue reading “Through Any Window”
Walk in the Park – Poem of the Month – September 2022
Walk in the Park I walked that I might breathe Each inhalation pushing the oxygen Up to my brain until my head cleared and normalcy returned Every step taking me further away from the source of my discontent I absorbed the surroundings Following the bend in the river A gentle susurrus shook The weeping willowContinue reading “Walk in the Park – Poem of the Month – September 2022”

At Peace – Poem of the Month – June 2022
At Peace With nothing but my own thoughts to keep me company I sit in silence Tendrils of light are streaming through the trees, captivating my imagination and inspiring my muse Losing myself in wonder I allow these moments to dream, ignoring what I think must be done When still, I understand the process NatureContinue reading “At Peace – Poem of the Month – June 2022”
Field of Dreams – Poem of the Month – April 2022
Field of Dreams This field of dreams lies barrenbut for the dandelions that thrivePatchy grass and dry dirt ensuretrespassers will not tread the fallow soilFor now it rests uncultivatedand the weeds teach resilienceNeeding little care to show their beautyThe color of sunshine they lie en masseA carpet of yellow, brightening a landscapedevoid of visual beautyFlourishingContinue reading “Field of Dreams – Poem of the Month – April 2022”
At First Light
At First Light At first light the rolling fog Sits perched just above the tide Hovering, unmoved by the sea below A tiny crab disappears into its hidey hole in the sand Shells scattered like confetti waiting to be bleached by the morning sun, yet to show its face Mine the only footprints to markContinue reading “At First Light”
Time To Let Go – A Sonnet
Time To Let Go As I walk these streets in the rain My eyes blinded with salty tears I wonder if I’ll come here again Maybe not for many more years Painful return to a place of sadness Once it held my heart and soul Now the memories are only badness Being back here hasContinue reading “Time To Let Go – A Sonnet”
