And sleep was hard to find;
Shadows all around her;
The night . . . more

I see the clouds rolling in.
Today it looks like rain,
But I'm ready for a downpour
Today I want to feel the pain.
Is it cold and dark where you are?
Do your own eyes drizzle tears?

Some time ago I shared with fellow Gatherers that I had been asked to be the subject of an interview and to have an excerpt of my play LUMPs ( which deals with issues related to breast cancer) published . . . more

No, my dear friends, contrary to what you may think, this is not another version of John Lennon's immortal hit. ;-) This is my own and rather free English rendering of a song from one of . . . more

its blossom opens cleanly

Left alone,
locked in the past.
Forgotten friendships
buried,
Never meant to last.
Left alone
Time standing still
Unforeseen,
this bitter pill.
Left alone,
The sky is gray
It wasn't . . . more

Many nights I creep around the house trying to not disturb my sleeping husband. The creak from my desk chair always seems louder at night. Often during the sleepless . . . more

We strive for the secret,
Yet never quite reach it.
And the old are still the young
With grayer hair and paper skin,
While the child plays house
In Mama's clothes,
Innocent, yet knowing. . . . more

(A poem, kinda - more like lyrics. It would be a song if I could write music)
Take this place in which
we exist, but fear living.
Call it anything but beautiful.
The sun will rise and set. . . . more

Yesterday, I knew this girl
who wore 'tragicly hip' as an accessory
to thrift store jeans
and manufactured angst
she drowned her happiness in bottles
then peeled the labels back

I have so many but the one that haunts me is:
<dl><dd>"Break, Break, Break"
Break, break, break,
On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!
And I would that my tongue could utter
The thoughts . . . more

I will forget you.
When a someone yet to be
Walks hand in hand with me
In loquacious silence,
New memories will come
And there will again be
that special secrecy of we.

I sat with my cigarette
In the stillness of the night
Watching wisps of smoke
Rise and fade to nothingness.
I thought about the past
And I dreamed of days to come.
Then I felt . . . more

The following haiku I created moments ago, "off the top of my head". I was reading the two latest comments on my haiku, "Renge" (Lotus) and at the mention of nature, was inspired . . . more

If I'd died while you still loved me,
Then I would never know the pain
of watching you walk away
and being all alone again.
If I'd died in the beginning,
before I memorized your face, . . . more

It hurts to love somebody
When you know that they don't care.
There are times when you feel like crying,
But you know it will lead nowhere.
Sometimes I fall into your eyes
And in my head . . . more

Come by and say hey.
My group has reached 300, today.
The poetry is lame
But all the same
I thank my friends,
With touching Amens.
Amen

Never project emotion.
They will only mistake
anger for arrogance
tears for weakness
If you show fear
they will strike.
Smile. Smile. Smile.
Shake hands.
Make eye contact. . . . more
