Watch Over Me

When the sun dips below The line of night My shadows come out to play Dancing before me In me Around me They speak to me Exposed faces, hands, souls Dark, menacing brutes Eating at my memories They drag me under In my dreams In my dreams they torment me No amount of hiding, No...

Bare trees Grass greening Chilly mornings Warm sun on my skin The night sky darkens Earlier in the eve Dark nights Galaxies glitter white light Blanket and the couch Cider in hand Hoodies Pumpkins Trick or treat Celebrate loved ones Revel in change

Let’s Begin Again

Where does it land you when you work and work and work towards a goal and finally achieve it and then fall backwards 40 steps to a point of starting all over again?  What is that called?  How do you reconcile who you are with what you’ve done and where you are?  That’s where I...

A while back I started some elementary attempts at getting some stuff down and was borderline successful. I've been keeping track of them in a folder on my desktop... Continue Reading →

In Mourning

Driving home down long, dark, quiet roads last night my husband and I got to talking about my loved ones that have passed over the past two years.  It got me to thinking about mourning and the way it hits you out of the blue now and again for no apparent reason, with no apparent...
