THE PAST IS PAST

WHATS PAST IS PAST ~

He’s shut the door leaving me here

soiled loins still shivery, shaking

begging for more.

Didn’t he see passions nectar

dripping off this gown?

Couldn’t he see electricity had struck

leaving hairs on my body standing?

Didn’t it bother him

when my shoulder strap broke?

I can still feel his lips running down my neck

towards the rose he’d laid between these breasts.

Didn’t he notice the glass slippers

he’d begged me to wear, teasing him, he said?

What a waste; tis not I that’s the tease.

I’ll be the one leaving him shuttering

where he stands.

 

Glass slippers smashed.

A prince who’d become a toad.

I’ve returned to the hovel

 of a spider webbed cottage.

No pumpkin here.

An old lantern lay in the leaves of memories.

What’s past is past

shown in the lanterns light.

I was led astray.

Footprints crunch the silence

in the wind of the trees.

I’m not Cinderella after all.

KILLING FIELDS
Posted On 12/14/2012 09:10:02

When are the Killing Fields going to stop?

Our soldiers, your soldiers

young men, old men

women and children.

 

When are these Killing Fields going to stop?

Countries without boundaries now ~

How did school grounds, shopping malls, movies, markets;

where are we safe from Killing Fields?

 

Who’s to blame ~ societies, guns, bomb holders?

How did they get to this state of mind without being noticed?

Where they noticed?

Was political correctness to blame?

No one seems to step forward fearing the public eye turning on them

when all they hoped and prayed for was for the Killing Fields to stop!

 

Anger towards others hidden in themselves

afraid there is no help.

It seems impossible no one sees, no one speaks;

anger, frustration, rage, when does the helplessness begin?

Stop the Killing Fields of the world’s condemnation in all the worlds’ societies.

December 14th, 2012 ~ 26 dead and counting ~

BEAU ~

 

Candle wax had dripped off its plate during the time

 I’d looked at old photos before returned them

 to their cabinet of dead dreams.

Silence the only explanation of

an empty bed, sitting in a house build of cards

 where my blood spilled out.

 

Remembering that witness chair

one question ringing in my ears,

is this marriage over?

I remember saying it loudly twice,

 I never wanted this divorce!

Mr. and Mrs. X, that’s all we are now.

Looking back I can’t say I didn’t see signs,

overlooking them loving you the way I did.

was it all a façade, those sixteen years?

 

Unknowingly you left me with unconditional love!

Beau!

Raising him from eight weeks old

he was there, when I fell on the floor.

My face he cuddled kissing my tears away.

Home from the hospital his tail waging,

kissing his mommy he’s missed so much.

He never left my side while I healed,

laying in my arms, his little head on my shoulder,

eyes never leaving my face, keeping me safe!

How could I possibly mourn you?

His small presence replaced your absent arms.

 

 Beau held my heart between his paws.

When he was afraid or hurt, he’d lay next to my chest,

 his heart pounding, piercing my heart.

 No, he’d never suffer for my sake, I’d see to that.

 

As I recovered, we’d talk, play ball,

take long walks; he loved when it snowed.

Oh, how he loved when I brushed his long hair

shaking himself, standing tall, he was “my” little man!

 

That final day he lay with his head in my lap,

Sensing he was going to his vet.

Yet calmly he rode all the way.

Once there, completing his tests

we all knew that this was the day.

For some reason

I’d taken his favorite blue blanket

knowing he’d feel more safe laying there, them

probing and testing, I never left his side.

We knew results were bad. 

It was the worst of times

that day we knew, but pray never comes.

When finally I had to say the words

no one wants to otter or hear.

But keep him comfortable for a week or two

just to make me feel better while he suffered

I couldn’t do.

 Not when he’d given me his unconditional love

it was my turn now, to take care of him.

Both of us knowing the true meaning of

unconditional love!

I carried him in his blue blanket to what

was known as the “quiet room.”

My baby (my child) rapped in his blue blanket

next to my heart, one hand holding

his little head under my chin.

Tears running down my cheeks,

he looked up at his “mommy”

kissing me twice on my chin.

The greatest unconditional love I’d ever known

passed quickly in my arms.

 

My heart shattered that day!

His vet knew him and me so well,

all day, coming back into that

“quiet room,” where I sat holding him.

Finally at five P.M., his assistant came,

all I could say was, “you’ll have to take him,

 I can’t give him away!

So gently she lifted him from my aching arms,

my heart scattered in tiny pieces covered that room.

Someone (I don’t remember who) drove me home,

eyes so swollen, I couldn’t see.

Someone from my church came for me

thinking I shouldn’t be alone that night.

There I stood in the middle of a prayer group

still crying my heart out.

Some I think thought I was over reacting,

after all, he was only a dog!

Not to me, he was the only unconditional love

I’d ever known in this life.

Rapped in his blue blanket that night

trying to sleep,

that eternal question flowing in my tears;

how does one continue to live without unconditional love?

 

Four years have passed now,

his picture placed in each room.

Ashes lay on my nightstand, along with

a clay paw print they’d made after he’d passed.

Not a single day has passed when he hasn’t been

in spirit, following me from room to room.

Daily walks, car rides, sometimes still cuddled at my feet,

still the only unconditional love I’ve

known in this life!

 

It’s written and known when my time comes,

our ashes together taken to the mountains we both loved.

Ashes and dust blown in the wind,

at last sharing Gods unconditional love.

COME WHISPER IN MY EAR BELOVED

COME WHISPER IN MY EAR BELOVED

share with me the treasures

entwined within the honey cone.

Take my hand; dip my finger in its sweetness.

 

Whisper in my ear

listen to the earth where the tree fell

its roots exposed crying for the body it once held.

 

Whisper in my ear

remember our Mocking bird’s song

since all we’ve found were scattered feathers

beneath its favored tree.

Did they fall together my beloved?

 

Whisper in my ear

before the hive drops leaving cones runny with honey

through the bare roots of its beloved tree.

Are we not all the same my beloved

whispering to one another with broken wings

in the ruins of the Dome.

 

Whisper in my ear its time

 to take what wings we’ve left finding another hive.

That moment something shapeless pulled him

from a mother’s womb, tears fell from stained eyes

 he doesn’t remember.

God’s luminescents filled a mare’s body

 when tiny legs slid into light; jolting a colt from its shelter.

Instantaneously, a colt knew his lineage was gone.

 

Birth’s radiance became a shadow over predetermined destiny.

 Fury flogged untimed weaning.

Socially acceptable behavior motivated impulsive disagreements with the herd that had taken him.

 The warmth that once protected extinction

turned into a runny existence of lies.

Life necessitated submission while God whispered,

“one day this conflict will be over.”

 

A yearling now;

he wandered aimlessly climbing mountainous terrains,

 traversing hollows and valleys.

New herds hesitated;

greeting him with trails of allegations;

fruitless questions.

They nayed any explanations why

humanity and nature sought his empathetic understanding.

He was cursed with perpetual punishment

being an annoyance to deaf ears.

What was his secret?

What were they concealing?

 

Seasons passed ~

Reigning in an incomprehensible spirit to the blind;

they shriveled consuming rotting fruit.

His coat of white shimmered in any pond;

a silver mane dangled over the sides of a sleek neck.

His tail arched dancing in sunlit breezes.

A spear was a crown mingling among agnostic rocks.

 

They jeered him,

those with two unbranched horns.

They mocked, testing the grace

of his spirituality he knew sustained him.

He raised his head acknowledging the sovereignty of his heritage only he understood.

 

Memories of a mother’s tears haunted him.

 

He wandered alone till

ascending, trembling in the hands of God.

He’d been a Unicorn lost in herds of antelope ~

HAVE YOU EVER
Posted On 11/15/2012 07:38:00

miss placed a glove?

One you know you’ve put away with its mate last time you wore it;

now it’s not there?

You’ve emptied its drawer; all the others are there except one?

You can’t wear just one glove; you’ve two hands, each a pair!

You’ve searched everywhere,

any place you think you might have set it last time you wore it.

You’ve looked is silly places, the pantry and refrigerator.

You remember once in a hurry putting groceries away

you’d put a head of lettuce in the freezer; so you check there;

 it isn’t there either?

It’s maddening ~

Eventually you give up, thinking I’ll try again tomorrow.

Tomorrow other pressing things have taken you mind off that glove!

Now you’ve forgotten about it; seasons change,

 you don’t need it anymore.

 Life moves on, you use another pair, pushing aside

 that one glove left behind.

One day you’re cleaning out things,

 Rearranging; just as life does to us.

  It’s cleanses us, placing us in new surroundings,

 Rearranged to suit life today.

There it is; out of nowhere, stuck in a crack where the drawer slides!

You pull it out, shake it out, smooth it out; it’s just as good as new.

Now after one or two seasons have passed,

suddenly this pair of gloves are the ONLY pair you need!

You don’t know why?  You don’t care?

All you know is you’ve found something you valued and lost.

Now you’ve got it back!

We need to reach out to our Veterans,
take a single hand, another and another
till we span this world.
 
We are the people of the world,
we are Gods children,
we are the past, present and future.
 
Let us band together
so our children's children have their future
for our service men and women who fought
before us and those coming home now
let us be the veterans now
giving them all the support they need
to keep going.
Let us support those family's,
who's father's, son's, mother's and daughter's
did not return home.
Let us take their hands
in comfort and strength
lending them a hand.
They've offered up their children for us
it's time we offered up our lives and support in return.
Let it not be in vain what the Son of the Almighty God gave his life for ~
All of mankind.
 
We are united as we stand.
Let the herds disappear beneath our feet.
 
God bless this world
man, woman and child;
this earth
its seas and lands;
every living creature as God planned ~

IMAGERY

A child’s voice raised in song

A minute away from snowing

A dancing bag in the wind  

Heart beats

A kiss

The touch of another’s hand in mine

A smile

Tears

Electric air before a storm

Hurt

A dog on a path between trees without a master

Falls colors

A road to nowhere

A lonely gray field

Framing a sun with my hands

A frozen lake

A broken steeple clock

A dead tree in a green meadow

Snow between mountains

Clouds of a storm

Concrete buildings crowding streets

A baby’s footprint

Seashells

A boat under a sunset

An amber sun caught between trees

The blink of an eye

An empty swing

Cartwheels

An icy highway

Wind chimes

A pen out of ink

A locket

A child’s stick drawing

The moons edge

Sunrise

The lines of desert sand waves

Flame colored rocks

Purple deserts

Drifting clouds

A church choir

A clear starry night

Black and white shadows on the top of a forest

Sun rays peeking through fallen branches

Diamonds glistening on emerald leaves

An empty campground

A path with no footprints

Trees I can’t see the tops of

A child holding a camera for the first time

The smell of a puppy

A bird’s song

The smell of sage

The old man in rags against a stone building

Waves of an ocean

Steam rising from gutters

Flying above clouds

A beach without footprints

A volcano’s lava

A sails first wind

A mustang running

The first time I held my child’s hand

The base of twisted tree trunks

Springs first purple wild flowers

A country fenced dirt road

Pick cherry blossoms

The smell of lavender

A tree that won’t die

A broken spirit

The birth of something I can’t see

The bridge I’ll never cross

The hum of a voice in a voiceless forest

Trees of amber in fall

A belly full of life

A field of wild poppy’s

Reflections on a glass pond

Remembering a life of things I left behind ~

These are God’s finger prints.

BITTER CHOCOLATE CAFE

BITTER CHOCOLATE CAFÉ

I’d come home expecting you beside the vase of my dying rose.

Melted chocolate lay in a puddle;

had I left you too long?

Longing to satisfy this bitter sweet craving

I went back to the “Bitter Chocolate Café”

It’s difficult to peruse a bar when the

items for sale are dimly lit.

Something dragged me from my shopping

into a rose colored light.

Suddenly “I” was a fine piece of chocolate,

melting in the thin cover I wore.

My scent just right,

He’d found his Bitter Sweet Bar!
