He took the form of servant, not of king,
Made Himself nothing that we might be whole,
And from that nothing, everything did spring:
The humble door through which God kissed the soul.

Out of left field
private pain revealed
bought your grandchildren presents
for me to wrap n present
feeling secondhand
adopted mom
coming in strong
with gift wrap and signatures
Amazon didn’t provide
I’m kinda dying inside
with stuff you can’t talk about
except to strangers
on the internet

In the hush of a misty morning
the world remains humble in its silence
reminding us that not everything
must be seen to be deeply understood.

I’ve loved through
t’ worst of you
You’ve loved through
t’ worst of me
across from a table
we see
eye t eye
heart t heart
more than we ever
saw from the start
‘cause 35 years
ain’t nothin babe
we’ll go the distance
worth more than
the 2 pence we rubbed t’gether
we’re in it forever
You n I

When there were clouds
I searched for blue
ever hopeful
my heart for you

Bewitched
by the wiggle of her nose?
I prefer
captivated
slowly
where love grows.

Grief is but love’s echo,
answering back forever.

In magenta sky
my Momma celebrated
Heavenly birthday

Like vespertine moths
that circle dying light,

We chase each joy’s
transitory gleam,
Yet happiness, that
paradox extreme,

Blooms when we cease
that restless, fevered flight.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

your lips
brush
my thoughts
run
I miss the crush
as we come undone

Grief is like glitter
thinking all traces swept clean
small bits sparkling

Silence holds
in grief’s refrain
flickered memories
play upon this pain

Perhaps, it’s just this time of year
thoughts of you fall ‘round like tears
whispering closer, ever near
they blow like leaves upon the wind…

I’m used to
being alone
in a crowd
disappearing
