Hmmm… I believe,
It was a cruel summer, but Against all odds Doves cried, Time after time because Love was a battlefield, and Girls just wanted to have fun Dancing in the dark.

Poem 217
The free-form poem is not in its final draft. Additional versions will be shared at a later date. The last two lines end in “ing.” Those are not the quality of words this poem deserves for its conclusion. A marriage built on silence, With no shared passions. I see his pain, I pray it doesn’t…

Happiest When
Beginning to achieve mastery. What was difficult, Becomes redundant, Dull, too easy. . Excitement fades, Darkness falls. Cloud-swallow forms. Drive, appalled. . Still, hard-pressed To be my best. Continue, ’til the breakthrough. . Mastery achieved Without self-defeat. What was difficult, Now a source of release. Reborn, a happy soul-piece.

For fun today, I…
Ran through parking lots, passed people, who assumed I was nuts. It was awesome! Seems not many run… I once was one. Now, it’s just fun!

A moody singer-actress was having a “moment,” and we were told we couldn’t walk on the sidewalk until the VIP finished…

This week’s musical adventures
My 14-year-old’s song for Max Konyi’s “The Sound of Heaven” Challenge. She chose the title and created the entire song after I ran around the house trying to put something together. I had voted for the darn challenge, but she didn’t want to participate. I asked her for help with my own because I was…

Poem 425
I wrote the free-form poem in the winter of 24/25 as an apology to the Universe, God, and everyone who stepped in to help during a family crisis. Consumed by anxiety and my own assumptions, I started acting like a jerk because I didn’t have enough answers and my child’s health kept declining. It took…

Poem 516
The poem was written in the winter of 24/25. I watched all that I warned of occurring begin to happen, following the Supreme Court’s ruling on Grant’s Pass. In the mysterious moments when day’s light breaks or wanes, Time stirs and hurries on most days. The guardian of light pierces night’s heaviest stretch, Purifying darkness,…
