Memories…

Looking into the

depths of the

continual flowing

water…

that dark blue

of an Artesian well

from her childhood

 

Submerged memories

flow up from her

soul matching the

bubbling water

Memories as cold

and clear as that

continually

flowing well

Weakness…

Weakness…

She felt the devastation

Weakened…

Lost…

 

Looking into a

washed out sky

like that pale

blue color of

skim milk

 

She wonders…

“How will they

all go on?”

Mysteries…

Mysteries…

Looking up

The view is

nothing but

amazing

 

The Sapphire

sky like an

upturned Lapis

bowl displays

wonder and

amazement for

all to see

 

An every changing

view that shifts

nightly…

monthly…

seasonally…

 

That vista vaulting

across the Heavens

holds a myriad

of mysterious

thousands…

millions…

of years old

Your Eyes…

Your Eyes…

I miss you

every day

All day

And…

In my dreams

every night

 

A part of me

disappeared when

you were taken

Suddenly…

Unexpectedly…

Unbelievably…

 

I still see

your eyes…

your smile…

Each a variety

of emotions

bubbling up

from your soul

 

That cannot be

taken from me

Your eyes…

Everchanging…

Blue…

Green…

Gold…

Amber…

 

Your smile…

Teasing…

Playful…

Sensuous…

Loving…

 

The two things

Tattooed onto

my heart…

my soul…

are all that

remain…

Super Moons

Super Moons

This year has been

the year of several

Super Moons

 

Each special…

Unique…

with their own

set of special powers…

good for some…

bad for others…

 

Each may have

caused unreal

reactions for highly

sensitive people

 

Some were energized

Some felt slightly ‘off’

Some were drained

of energy and needed

to repeatedly recharge

Some…

All of these

 

We are of the heavens

Star people

Influenced to the

whims of our Moon

 

Believe in the lore

Or not…

We are tied to

the Moon…

Gone…

Leave a comment

Gone…

Morning shadows

gradually fade and

the night’s struggle

is revealed

 

Burying my face

in your pillow

I memorize the scent

that is only you

 

After today…

Only a memory

My heart breaks

as I undress the bed

And…

Go on with

my life

ALONE…

May Morning

Leave a comment

May Morning

Overcast skies

Air so thick it

can be touched

Birds softly greeting

the day

 

My favorite part

of the day

The morning slowly

waking along

with me

Peaceful…

My tranquil time

Past…

Leave a comment

Past…

Children are told

to be seen and

not heard

 

In that phrase

the seeing…

the remembering…

the knowing…

is stored away

in their minds

 

Memories…

buried so deep

at times they

are all but

forgotten

 

However…

 

When needed they

struggle to the surface

and remind them

regardless of what

happened in the past…

regardless of the time…

children must know…

need to know…

regardless of what

they saw…

they heard…

they felt…

they experienced…

they are NOT

WORTHLESS…

Childhood TV Rituals

Childhood TV Rituals

Today’s children are missing

the wonderful part of their

lives that those known now

as ‘Boomers’ took for

granted every day

Yet…

influenced so much

of our lives…

our learning…

shaped personalities…

futures…

 

A simple thing

But…

A powerful tool

in learning back

in the day through

the unknown…

the funny…

the zany…

and…

touching…

 

Something faithfully

watched every

morning before

school (if Mom allowed)

every afternoon when

homework was cone

Always a Saturday

morning ritual not

to be messed with

 

That wonderful

wacky world

of television

Cartoons…

Texas Parasites

Leave a comment

Texas Parasites

They are rustic…

Unusual…

Unique…

 

More bush than

actual trees…

A parasite for

ranchers…

Food for cattle…

CRACK for horses…

Old School

fence posts…

 

With delicate

lacy leaves

and gnarled

branches…

they are a

SouthWest delight

to some…

Perfect BBQ…

And…

A scourge to others

 

What my elderly

aunt thought were

peach trees during

her first trip to Texas

 

The lowly

Mesquite…
