Sixty Years Hence

Happy Christmas Eve from Art and Words! 

Time wants nothing but what is beauty for the soul... ❤️

no one tires

no one tires 

of the soul's genuine work

fresh straw and rice grow without 

tampering, natural the way 

lovers embrace,

after a journey,

by the moon, 

with the sun, 

wind the only thing 

able to change direction 

honey from bees

there is always a bit 

that lingers

at the bottom of the cup.

it is the sweetest, 

though       many never

discover it. 

you're prettier when

has anyone ever told you you're prettier when you smile? 

The spaces in between

April Echoes

Spring officially begins in just a few days, and April is just around the corner! 

April echoes through 

     magnetic walls

laced with salt and bitter

roots. 

I will wait with you 

under skies of cream,

content to 

make sense 

of seabirds who fly East 

and stars that 

twinkle till morning.  

Grace and Grief

Pour toi

Pour toi 

your   presence   

is    a    prayer

 circling

the space 

 in    between 

   where 

love speaks

    and 

echoes dream. 

Tired arms

There are days

In Memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

winter wanders

Love is

Love is 

these stamps

these stamps 

i asked these stamps 

    what was your favorite part?

they laughed and answered,

     we liked it all. 

Every single time

Every single time 

Every single time 

     I strayed from him 

and went to the arms of another 

I regretted it and came home 

         to shower     

and      drink 

what was left of myself. 

I've decided

But really, if you wait for these two things, you might be on the shore a very long time.
