one… (my love my light)

the mainstream is polluted - hold your nose...
monday morning coffee should always be stronger than the rest of the week.  seriously, there should exist 'the monday blend'.  some limited release concoction that allows freedom to linger in the face of of some bored firing squad.  for, while the shower is still wet and the sun still yawns, the weekend instantly becomes a distant blur and time accelerates head first into merging traffic only to idle in front of a manipulative light.  so forgive me for the bad cholesterol that goes to my head, but taking a moment to dip my a.m. donut into forgotten art will always distort this week day repetitious spin cycle for a few delightfully fragmented moments.  something to bide the time as i wait to lay my soul down, next to my heart.



my love my light

she is in essence
  all seasons green and giving
  chamomile chocolate cream
  soft
  september sunset sweet and warm

she is a heart that dances with grateful colors
  lips that sip like soft framboise fantastic
  eyes like sparkling cinnamon merlot
  bright
  skin as smooth as sun drenched ice

she is herbal smiling smoke
  radiating harmony within
  inviting arms opening without
  fiery
  she is maya angelou proud

strong when the wind will howl
like water when the sky is shy

she is within the dancing amber
she is within the sweetest porter
she is within the fearless rain

she is within me


from the collection 'thaw'
