Lights offer the faintest
Flickering of hope while
Solitary umbrella offers
Shelter from the constant
Trickle of rain and tears

Candle Light
Taken with my iPhone5
Candle light
Candle bright
Light the way for me
When I am lost
And paths are dark
Candle shine for me
Sweet Bee
Busy buzzing bee
Collecting pollen for your
Honey factory
Your Words
Words uttered
Cut through my heart
Leaving me to dress
Open wounds
Contemplation
Decisions of mine
Every choice I have made
Have all led me here
A silent moment
Alone, lacking company
Contemplating me
There is no escape
Wondering what could have been
No door can I see
I long for release!
Echoes of a distant me
Dreaming silently
Raindrop Kisses
Rain drops start falling
As the clouds begin to cry
I stand alone and close my eyes –
Welcome gentle kisses as
They softly caress my
Undressed skin
Attitude
Designer jeans
And heels to boot
I have my sexy on
Following Blogs
I love reading poetry, and other blogs!
Sometimes when I’m scrolling down my reader I notice blogs I usually follow and read. But! The follow button is highlighted, meaning that I am not following that blog. Perhaps I unfollowed accidentally when scrolling, or maybe it’s just some quirky WordPress thing. So I refollow the blog. If any bloggers have noticed my re-follows it is not because I have unfollowed your blog deliberately, but merely rectifying a less than satisfying state I find my reader to be in!

Growing Up
You are turning into a man
And the baby I knew
Is gone from me
Slipped away and I wish
I could give that little boy
A hug from his mother
One more time
Guilt
You were my baby
You are my son
I was the only mother
I knew how to be
And when I think
Of how I’ve failed you so
My hope remains
That your spirit is greater
Than mine could ever
Have been
