A Journey into Creativity
Rolling Hills
Slumber fell from tired eyes, Deep dreams, vivid like memories. Rolling green hills, leading to mountains. A gray mist hung in the air, petrichor. Songs of cardinals and whipporwills echo. Wooden rocking chairs on a porch creak As the wind sways red-flowered baskets. This is the place. Or it was the place. Past or future,…
A Moment of Beauty
Soft blossoms float down, Fragrance hangs lightly in the air The lawn littered with spent blooms in colors of pink, yellow and white The beauty is fleeting, Enjoy it while it lasts.
Teal and Red
Blossoms tumble from above Falling on bare shoulders below Brown hair tucked up at her nape, Fingertips float across her silk skirt, A vibrant teal and red sash trails behind. It should clash, but instead there is harmony. He awaits her arrival anxiously, But knows their future lies ahead. Hearts full and eyes wide open.
Over It All
Dark circles surround heavy eyes Energy drained and the world swirls Nothing stands still, nothing feels right. All that is needed is grounding. The rug pulled out, footing lost, Stumbling over every obstacle, Exhausted from the quaking world Failing at every turn, and no, it doesn’t mean first attempt in learning… Shifting goal posts, unstated…
Trying
Trying to find a different way, Thought I might get lost in clay Smashing through the grog Relieving my stress backlog. However, anxiety still exists It’s one of those dastardly beasts.

Where’s the glow?
I used to love making things beautiful Now, I just want to survive my day. I wish my world were still filled with finesse But you see, I am overwhelmed by this mess. Still, I try to make things lovely and nice, Baking sweet things with sugar and spice. Clearing shelves and setting out decor,…
Belly Up
Sunlight streamed through a paned window Westward facing, afternoon rays brought heat. Padded feet plodded down the hall, The glow brought him from the shadows. Making a circle, he softly purred in delight. Flopping down, his dark fur danced, Sun shimmered in his blue eyes. He soaked it all in, this was his moment, His…
Stardust
Tortured souls, we are, tangled in this world Wanting a way out, wanting to fix it all Never knowing whether to stay or go Is our time to soar approaching in the challenge Or are we breaking under never ending weight Pulled apart bit by bit, smashed upon the rocks Until we’re nothing more than…
A Hallmark Moment
A familiar storyline played out Every evening on Hallmark Especially at Christmas. A woman on the edge of her success Or pushed to the end of her wits Her vision is cleared to take a different path. Does life actually unfold this way, When we are on the precipice? If only there were a clear…
