The Fates

Lethargy won’t sink its claws in me ever determined, pointed to Spring new growth on a cloudy day store bought roses chase blues away #vss365 #blueskypoets

My view…

Bloom…

Moon…

these grey days that bully the blue calculating camouflage attaching themselves upon unsuspecting cumulus do challenge those of timid mind and quiet heart to find some light and space of peace in the unwavering persistent bravery of trees #vss365 #poetry #writingprompt #timid #amwriting #naturewrite

a plain petticoat woven from morning shadow bared in broad daylight #haiku

Have you ever had a moment where you lay your eyes on someone & look— I mean really look & something in you drops down the spine to the atoms Through the haze of #obsession logic doesn’t thrive You just know— that's my person You don’t need reason to want them in your world #vss365

Take flight, soaring sentences. #7syllablesentence #blueskypoets

"We hold onto threads that aren't visible to anyone else. A bond, an anchor, a wind to blow out the dust, givers make merry. Walking together under a bright sun to bloom beneath. Tracing galaxies with our fingertips over flesh seeped in desire that decides not to leave. Choosing to stay, to know."

the cry & the tenderness are no longer at odds they move together through the estuary of words our dreams still cling to old stones life remains fragile as grass our hands no longer know how to hold yet our heart keeps beating #stellar in the marrow of the Mother Sun #vss365 #poetry

Woke up with this in my mind… He’ll meet you where forehead touches sky constellations shine without asking #poem

i fell upon the sound of my name spilling breathlessly from your lips a tremble purse i pulsed for more i knew not to find words here but to live impermanently acorn and Earth blood root and script to fall upon the sound of home loam and reaching through this other side of where is the Love

Moon pulls within state of flux. #7syllablesentence #poetrycommunity

Birds on a wire nothing makes me happier than hearing from you #haiku 📷 : mine

From His bright wound the living waters rise, And wash the dust where my dark gardens lay; The thorn once crowned upon His sacred brows Now flowers as light along my hidden way. Let every leaf that stirs in wind and rain turn green in spring with praise. #vss365

The kiss

I was born in the snow dreams melted desire flourished spring whispered I’m coming #FromOneLine #403

love is a long, lingering spell of wordless wonder fragile yet unyielding, seen and unseen, a mystical dance between soul and its shadow. ~rev #vss365 #shadow

I awoke to birdsong glorious stirrings and thoughts of you #poem

uptown café the sparrow's eye is on my cupcake #DailyHaikuPrompt

I have been the willow bending, barren Arms couldn’t hold my grief wind-whipped, shaking roots quaking in the storm holding on, holding on waiting for spring #poem #vss365 #bend

May my daughter know she’s worth far more than the twinkle in that young man’s eyes #poem

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've been to (eclecticism challenge accepted) Stevie Nicks Amanda Palmer Neil Diamond Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Pink Floyd

maybe i hold love the way i learned to hold a tiny bird by not grasping... by holding the warm space around her body, allowing the air between us to choose

Happily lost on a date with my youngest that ended at Powell’s Books. Found myself amongst the poets. Lang Leav reminded me how to find my voice again…

Your kindness and mercy were unexpected so were the flowers #poem

To be fully seen is to be encountered where we do not resolve- where the light breaks not to be admired for coherence, but to be recognized in contradiction, To be fully seen is to have one’s unfinished edges met without urgency, as if incompleteness were not a problem but a presence. #Selfloved

He leaves his hoodie it’s a warm hug after curfew She returns another freshly washed dab of her perfume #younglove #poetry

Wise beyond her years would have knotted me in tears she stands, open hand he stays, doesn’t run away wild horse, nuzzling

Thoughts

I was there at the beginning of MTV, rushing home from high school to watch the first Video Killed the Radio Star….but this song is stuck in my head… youtu.be/D4dHr8evt6k?...

You are my photograph Snapshot... past, present, future and I can’t imagine anyone else developing beside me we’ll always be slightly out of focus

how often have I seen our star wondered how you are beyond seams stitched in dreams borne into reality clouds blanket sky glint caught tears in eyes and I saw stars… #vss365 #dream (📷off my front porch) Song in my head: Sparks by Coldplay

Beginning today with an ending the final sunrise 2025

#poem #poetry

We should have stopped at the idea of us but here’s the crux you’re in my bloodstream #FromOneLine #397

When there were clouds I shone brightest breaking through grey spaces making way for light #FromOneLine #398

I want to hold your breath with a kiss

We sit, table ‘round lamplight reflecting story lined eyes laughter wry so many years tucked inside this family I, a branch upon this tree how many Christmases will be before a pruning? #poem

wrote your name in the air, with care, and heard it whisper back with the gushing wind. wrote it again, deep in the folded sands the waves erased it gently, leaving behind a seashell that breathes your name, soft and endless, like the ocean waves. ~rev #vss365 #air

I cast my heart’s cracked glass into the night, Where ebbing tides have schooled my grief to shore; The frost that bit my veins now learns the light, As dawn persuades the wounds to ache no more. Past heartbreak’s struggle, I’ll choose new spring, And teach my heart again to sing. #vss365

Lovers

Am I too old to be feelin like this? First kiss wishin on a star forever far outside my grasp as I ponder n wander through my mind of possibilities how silly it seems but at heart I’ll always be the girl next door.

I’ve never left tides ebb n flow just so ya know I’m here you’re there I’m forever thinkin of you
