Dreamscapes flit through my mind as I lay in my favorite position snuggling with pillows all around me and I feel the coolness of the air as the fan above me circles lazily I hear a bird or two, and the whooshing of the fan and feel the grosser needs of my body command my attention…
Journey
Clinging to threads of Faith left over from a better time Knowing that something different is possible having lived it before Finding my way through shadows of experience Each old one a lesson Each new one an opportunity to become the higher self and live free once more
Blank Page
I face the page, blank, staring daring words to jump from my pen but the emotions that drive inspiration are as flat as that lined canvas. Even the gray clouds that seemingly match my mood have more texture and depth than the doldrums of my heart. That stupid page stares back, mocking laughing at my…

Sometimes a poem can take years to develop… sometimes they never do.
