My Poetry and Prose Blogology
Sands or Stars
“My paths are branched, the more I walk
the more they multiply, like weeds…”
Some Dreams Evolve
“while appearing to subsist in normality
encircled by lights of love and security—
not every shape of life we encounter
floats on calm mirrors of untainted waters…”
Innocence Lost
“And Jesus said: Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God…”
Trails Through Time
“time slowly erodes my rocky pathways
of life—hobbling me in narrow meanders
and endless excruciating switchbacks…”
True Freedom
“…I hold all truth to be self-evident
All people are created equal
They are endowed by their Creator…”
The Spirits of Stars
“I secretly spy behind the edge of an echo
observing little children jump and laugh
climbing upon sparks of excitement
discovering endless colors in new friends…”

“A silver water pitcher
gifted for our wedding
forty-five years of age
reflected young smiles…”
Our Forest Home
“raindrops feel different in spring / drizzling anxious bark / melting our xylem frosts / pumping hushed hope…”
A Common Thread
“the vastness of the sea
brings me serenity
as I ponder our residue
in her galactic churns of life…”
Shores of Mercy
“Of all the dreams I could’ve dreamt—
I hesitated—tumbling numb into another
cavern—mined in my own bastions of fear…”
