BACK HOME

one raindrop

some days
I long
to be very small
to be immersed
in a single
raindrop
to fly away
with the
milkweed seed
to sleep
under
the whiskers
of a butterfly
to nestle into
wispy clouds
where memories
cannot land
                 

---

Step Boldly

Step boldly into
Your moment of life

Howl into the night
As day breaks your heart

Let silence sweep thru
Rugged peaks of grief

Whisper into the
Mist of your longing

Surrender desire
Into gentle sleep

Dance the rising sun
Into love again
