If My Poetry Were A Place

 If My Poetry Were A Place


My poetry is a sacred interior soil 
that reclaims fertility
where the earth blooms
in a well tended garden

A place that invites
the weary to rest
and the wild to relax
solitude in secluded corners

Where dew drips off the vine
and sweet nectar drifts sweet
from blossom and bud
richness of earth mingled in a cocktail

Interior places inked
what was lost is found
growing hope from ashes
and love takes root beyond brokenness

Drifting

Drifting

Snow skitters across the ground
driven by tyrannical wind
whipping up a ground blizzard

Those light fluffy thoughts
not rooted, looking for a fence
to drift against

Forming a cornice at the peak
of rigid stories
waiting for that stop

That avalanche that crashes
tumbling through the roof
until the mind calms and hope digs out

Blanket of Gray


blanket of gray hangs low
veil that hides shadows
sun obscured in brume

warmth of life
pumps through my veins
dissipating internal gray

no hiding anymore
come out from the shadows
find new life

He makes a safe place for me
  my heart rests in His loving kindness
