new day premonition | lights up and goes out | a firefly flicker
a cold blue lake | holds secrets of lost youth | where she soaks in the past
orange light this sunset | color of keeping the world | safe in its brilliance
like the weather, she | no longer follows patterns | unpredictable
these special kisses | wishes for a happy day | she gives thanks for love
I have been this | exquisite color ~ of earth | and sky so purple
begging to be embraced | seared into mind's eternal eye
a fearsome surge of wind | corrals mountains of clouds | and rain falls like stones
she will not go down | to the bottom of dark | prayer keeps her afloat
asking questions | to riddles with no answers | a waste of time
from the other side | came the light of her life | an always happiness
and hearts break, harden | to the possibilities, | love's many lessons
she deprives herself | of thinking about his kiss | of the ways he walks
who's to blame | for the mean and deranged | we all have choices
this incredible | journey from first breath forward | life a cherished dance
traveling reminds us | of homes we've had and lost | of people we love
our blue world | humming on the power grid | a collective dream
she keeps blame at bay | all the ways our world knocks us | days are spent laughing
her ancestors flowers | bloomed into the world | left future seeds
stories come to life | positive or negative | strive to become flesh
almost impossible | to take back horrible | we pray forgiveness
woven together | our roots forever | entwined in love
slow flowing river | a memory of calm | striving for stillness
yesterday's rainclouds | linger on jade river's edge | ripe for the blooming
Mercury's in retrograde | try chains on tongues or | conversing in smiles
morning hints of rain | leaves green river flowing slow | beauty soothes the soul
today you're ready | pack your bags and walk away | it's easier said...
