spring against my back
the vibrations
of a hummingbird
scrolling my page
a little black bug
observes my words
spring afternoon
a greeting
from the yard cat
she says goodbye-
rose petals
in the dirt
house finch
the wind chimes
through the garden
too much wine-
dizzy from all the birdsong
this summer morning
bickering in flight..
a blur of emerald and ruby
around the feeder
his arms around me
the mountain ridges-
a light pink sunset
waning moon
the silence
of a sleepless night
never wanting
to change itself
desert rose
separate rooms-
a distance greater
then the moon
these days
the only happiness
at my bird feeder
shards of glass
how quickly I pull away
from his touch
my tears…
rose petals
against a pond
garden buddha
in its palms
fallen petals
spring morning my thoughts drifting bumblebee
worn out
faded patches
of sky
I sit hidden beneath
a blooming tree
tiny fountain
the stillness
of a fern
walking outside
a melody of wind chime
over and over
a deep longing to love
myself a little more
Steady Rain

the cool breeze
of mountain air
and still I sit
alone by the creek
with nothing to say…
low tide
unveiling
the parts of myself
I’ve kept hidden
for so long
Restful Sleep

Tonight I took a sip
Of lavender and waning moon
I catch my reflection
Sparkled
In violets
Listening to distant vibrations
Of Earth
And give praise
To feeling alive
Even in the reflection of waning moon-
I kiss her goodnight
And dream
Of fields
In lavender.
