You told me
told me
how it was
going to be
You told me
told me
but
I just couldn’t see.

You Told Me
November 6, 2025
You Can Be
October 7, 2025
You can be
somebody
You
can be
everything
All you have to do
is
believe.

You Call Me
June 30, 2025
You call me
I hear
my name
my heart smiles
For all is right
we’re together
again.

Waiting To Tell
June 26, 2025
Here I am
waiting
for the right place
and
time
to tell all
you need to know
to
get through
just
another day
I won’t say
anything nasty
I won’t get in the fray
but
I will tell you
you need
to
be happy
even if
no one else
can see your smile
smile anyway.

No Matter What
August 2, 2024
No matter what
The earth turns
bringing light and warmth
on a summer day.
No matter what
Filling oceans up
creating life in the water
dirt and the sky.
No matter what
She moves
speaking words of love
heard by those quiet enough
No matter what.

Hardly Seen
February 1, 2024
Hardly seen
Nor
Put upon as perfect
Yet
Here we are, here we be
Flourishing
Throughout the land
For all
To know
To feel, to touch
To see.

Don’t Know
May 3, 2023
Totally don’t know
What to say
Maybe later, later in the day
All will be clear
All
Understood
And
I’ll know, know what I should say
I surely should.

My Heart
September 16, 2022
My heart rules, my heart says
Be the best and then leave the rest
Don’t look for bad nor tolerate those
That bring it.
My heart hears all kinds of things
Water crashing on distant shores
A baby bird looking for some more
The calling of a lonesome wolf.
My heart feels the touch of necessity
A coffee warm, so tasty
The gentle caress from one
So loved.
My heart does all these things
While beating life and breathe
Into everything.

The Truth
April 4, 2022
Sometimes the truth
hurts
and
not the best thing
to hear.
Sometimes its good
to accept the truth
as it is
as it seems.
Sometimes you can
make the truth
the truth you need
to embrace
and
to believe.

Hold Me Close
October 19, 2021
Hold me close
Hold me where I can see
All the beauty
Enveloping
You and me.
Never let me go
Never let me be
All alone
Without you close
Near to me.
Our hearts beat
Together
Our lives are intertwined
Let it be forever
Forever til
The end of time.
