Until Then

Until we are but

Distant laughter & yellowed photographs

And old warm melodies caressing fragrant hearts,

Legacies of bold adventure

Fading footprints left in exotic lands

I, once a daring foreign princess

You, a curious dashing explorer

i will hold your hand

Until we are but colorful swirling dust

Of ages long ago

Every hue weaving stories

Of who we were
Whispers of ancient wisdom

Carried in through midnight windows

To graze young sleeping ears

i will hold your hand

Until wooden boxes

Put to rest in cool earthen homes

Salty tears to season

The green moss above

..our last words

As we cry out

..for rejoicing

i will hold your hand

Until kaleidoscope light bodies

Swallowed into mouths

Of dark tunnels

Lacing our fingers tightly

As we step towards

Glowing beacons of light

i will hold your hand

Mischievous

People of the shadows

We will be, wandering

Through familiar lands

And mystical cosmic ones

Entertaining ourselves

With trickery and child-like amusing
Creating new dreams

And I will still love you
Til every last star dies
And is reborn again

As we bend time to our will

And passion to our desire

For we will leave them

A story to remember..

Until Then

i will Hold your hand..

God's Will

Sometimes
    I fully open my eyes

         and I let myself see

....and wistfully coax in my true thoughts

         that maybe

maybe

this beautiful mystery light I see everywhere


    was not Only
created by me,
but was also simultaneously
Created for me 
and those I pass by.

 Then I wonder 
if that's what it means
to stretch out your palm

and allow God to place it 

upon 

      His own..

Father I fall so fast and alone. Desert grows and the comfort of the green forest fades. Hold me close to your heart..

Icy ladders 

wicked mists

I try to catch 

liquid hope 

in a braided rope net.

The warm dew 

in your eyes 

smolders in my soul 

and illuminates 

hidden scripts 

once engraved there 

many years ago,

like Bilbos ring 

glowing

&

hot.

 

Come ALIVE

take my hand 

hold

this

feeling

    

I've missed

some Things

but You remind me  

always 

 

 

Who I Am.
