Happy children are all-stars, curious jugs of sunshine, their faces radiant, their eyes metaphors of emptiness and fullness perfectly contained, their naïveté keeps us entertained, they don’t think about anything too long, peanut butter keeps them energized, they have happy feet, elastic faces, like...

Happy Children...who take pleasure in nothingness

Waiting on Love to Come...
Sometimes we wait too long for love taking on the personality of a moth...forevermore. Here I am like every other flower in the garden drinking in the pearled dew, and hour after hour a female willow trembles knowingly at our pain, a swan sings close by, both of us living by breath alone, Sometimes...

Our President, Michelle & Oprah,
Guys to watch, envy, and immulate...

into waiting like every other woman for her man in the garden of true love, a dark place I cannot walk away from, a madness has taken over, through weeping lids half of me was cursing you, while a female willow trembled knowingly, when she moaned a little, the hairs on my wrist stood up and...

Growing Love
When I was a child, it was my mom I loved the best, When I was a teenager, I began questioning, was I worthy to befriend? As a young single mother, I wondered if I was worthy of another love? Now in the winter of my years, snug under my covers warm and tight, my inner poet whispers in my ears at... Sign in to see full entry.
