My Latest Poetry 

Medicant Maple

Ere the dawn of morn
Forsake me not
See me weep in the eye of the storm
Accursed is thy
But thus I besiege
Incessantly swaying
Praying to thee
Sojourner of life
Ebbed in the soil
Affable yet daunt
Festooned from thy toil
O'er and O'er  the breadth of yore
Depicts the fracas
That thee does adore
Thy bulwork is crumbling
Cede if I must
For thy is surely defunct at dusk

Sweetness Of Song

I want to have a song
And hear it on the radio
see flowers in the morning
hear laughter in the
silence
smell perfume in the cold
feel warmth in a heartbeat
touch a rainbow
taste salt on a dimpled cheek
see montains on skin
hear my name in a whisper
feel clouds in the storm
Smell sweetness in the morning

Listen to the radio

What Are You?

So much emptiness
So much Pain
Filled with so much love
Yet feeling so unwanted
Not knowing your place
Admist all the comfusion
What are you good at?
Are you really what he says
Or are you not to blame
Do you deliberately cause conflicts
Unknowingly hurting him
Or are you merely unable
To keep your emotions in toe
Are you a good mother
Or just a keeper
Keeping her from harm
Do you really love yourself
Or do you not care about your life
Now that your heart is broken.
...If Only

If only
If only
I can say it a thousand times
And never make it the same
If only I was a better mother
If only I was smarter
If only I was happier
If only I was patient
If only I was understanding
then I could transform tomorrow

But there would only be more...
If only
If only
If only I hadn't done that
If only I hadn't said that
If only I didn't act like that
If only I didn't look like that
If only I didn't sound like that
A thousand days, a thousand nights
A thousand new..If Only's

If only I smiled more
If only I talked more
If only I agreed more
If only I listened more
If only I accepted more
A list so long I could not finish it

If only
If only
If only I showed I cared more
If only I showed I loved more
If only I laughed more
If only  I kissed more

If only we loved

If only I were Perfect

Past, Present, Future

...
Back years before
Oh, how you loved me then
I was  your angel
Never doing wrong
I brought sunshine
into your life
Filling your eyes with joy
Touching your soul with my smile
I kissed away teardrops
and replaced them with laughter
Mesmerized you with
Pleasing conversation
Enticed you with attraction
Attracted you with love
..Forward to the present
Oh, how you seem so unhappy
I am now your demon
Never doing right
I bring darkness
into your life
Filling your eyes with rage
My smile only brings
Suspision and accusation
There is no longer laughter
to replace tears unshed
Conversation is fleeting
And mine seems mundane
My attraction is weak
My love doubted
...My future Broken.
The One

What can I do love
To bring you back to me
There is a distance between us
I can feel but cannot see
I sense it in your voice
In the tone which you address
In the things you do not say
In the words you don't express
I cannot prentend comprehension
Or decipher the means
All I can do is ask again
If you are still in love with me
You hide behind excuses
Explanations, all the same
Avoidance of confrontation
Evasivness from pain?
Where shall I go from here
How can I depict to you my heart
Or would it only be in vain
Because you know I'm not "The One"
Somebody

Oh how sweet your tender kiss
Upon my cheek so red
Blushing from the thought of you
and the fantasies in my head
In your eyes I see myself
As I truly want to be
Passionate, loved, desirable
Uninhibated and free
My dreams of you are passionate
Filling me with yearning
My thoughts of you are loving
Keeping  my heart burning
To stroke your cheek, touch your face
Or run my fingers through your hair
I think I would do anything
Follow you anywhere
For it would fill my heart with joy
Just to see your face,
Feel your arms around me
In a deep embrace
Alas, for now, unsure of tomorrow
And if the circumstance will change
I hold on to the dream of you
While I keep my heart restrained
