Liquid Relief

Cold refreshing drink.

Sipping and cooling.
Effervescence my relief.
On hot Sunday afternoons.

Beats to her own Drummer

Atypical girl.
No makeup needed for her.
Is never easy.
You must be true to yourself.
You are unique and special…

Pristine radiance  

Nothing will take it away  

Keep going for all  

The storms will fade into calm  

Your light will always remain

There’s work to be done

Poetry

Finding Balance

Clear mind, sound and soul,
In sanity’s calm embrace,
balance found within
mediating to find peace
deep breath in and deep breath out.

Poetry

Under the Moonlight

Beneath the moonlight
Swaying to their own sweet tune.
Love is in the air.
All they see is each other.
Tonight, they’ll have no worries.

Dusk Dancers

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Forms dance in the dusk
Veils of mystery and peace
Silent stories told
Solely by shared movement
Embracing deepening night.

Natures Wondrous Secrets

Soft caress of air
Whispers secrets of the world
Nature’s softest sigh
Standing still you can hear it
And share all of its wonder…

Whispered tales of time and life
Green sanctuary
Older than all time itself

Flood Of Memories

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Voices of the past
Rippling through the canyon walls
Memories return
Nothing can damn their current
Flooding out in a torrent…

Stony Brook

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Winding through the stones
Gentle secrets softly flow
Life’s pulse in each drop
Crisp icy waters flow by
Carrying some fallen leaves…

Wide Open

Wide fields kiss the sky
Daisies dance in warm sunlight
Nature’s quilt unfolds
Greeted by deafened silence
With only the wind speaking…

Knocked Down (Hard)

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony, mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Forceful impact’s sound
Resonating through the air
Strength and power shown
Reeling back from the hard blow
Falling on cold hard asphalt…

Passion’s Light

Ecstasy revealed
Heart’s delight unleashed in joy
Soul’s blissful embrace
Passions burn, so brilliantly
That their light never goes out…

Poetry

Shadows of Fear

Fear of judgment lingers, 

Tightly grasping what we know. 

Letting go is hard, 

Leaves no space for us to grow, 

In shadows, dreams remain low.
