Like a dog who has been in the shelter for far too long, being prepared for his final meal.

Being heldI can see so much sky
Like an open mind
But I'm unable to float off into it
Weighted by old, unnecessary shame
Wedged in place by caring who cares
None of it matters
None of it matters
None of...

To My Husband
Being without you
is like the stars
without the moon
The hole I have in my heart
that's forever torn apart
Without you by my side
and the endless days I cry
Not knowing when
If I'll ever see u again
For that...

Raining In Summer
Torrential downpours drown this summer day;
huge puddles forming, filled with tears of rain.
No sun and sky of blue- my heart gives way

It has just come to me,
As I lay here thinking,
How sorry it seems to be

Do not bore me with inanity

EpiphanyReflecting its neighbourhood,
The lake water shone yellow.
Resembling a synchronisation of saturation
With the setting sun.
Seizing green colour of the grasses
The Sun painted them gold.
Gazed pines dance spectacularly,
Only awakened with Sparrows' chirps,
And Robins' melodious songs.
Perched on...

AsherI lost my grandson Asher
He couldn't make it
He's Gods precious angel
Which was hard to handle
I will always think of you
And miss you
and love you
Love from Grandma...

If Only You Knew
If only you knew the struggles I have had,
many were very sad.
My kind and loving dad,

about the people that made me mad.
If only I had not...
