Poetry

To evoke feeling or mood

Light at Twilight

My Sun has returned

the breeze carries

A fresh scent of clover

I agree my flame

To shine in the darkness

Strong arms wrap around me

I am home

Joy and sadness

Venom and cure

Hope against the coming storm

A star

Trying to find

Its proper orbit

My chemistry

has changed

Seeking the fuel

To sustain me

My sunlight on clover

We chose each other

My Heart’s desire

My Lord with the eyes of emerald

Do you see?

The flaws that I am hiding

Scars that will be

Melted in the crucible

May they be forged

Into my strength

so that I may serve others

All who have given

Me shelter,

an ounce of consideration

Have not come

through the fire unscathed

Are you seeking

Your Star

My Love

I will have to walk

In shadows

In light

In the time

and spaces in-between

My home,

our home

May be the wide seas

the narrow paths

of the Cosmos

With so much

Concern and care

Your love shines

in your eyes

My passion ignites

Will I live

and be worthy

of your love?

Will this bond

this love that

we have promised

Weather the coming storms?

Liminal

There is a stirring deep within

Energies shifting slowly

All past actions lead me to the current moment

A crescendo ascending from the melody

Changing…

I can feel it…

Goose-flesh springs forth

I wrap my arms about me

So many have come and gone

Dry leaves driven by the autumn wind

Sorrow…

Partings…

Hope is fleeting

The more I clasp, the faster it runs

Something is drawing my gaze to the horizon

Is it a coming dawn or collective cries

Of the lost, the exiled?

Perspective…

Stepping forth…

My hands caress my belly

Seeking to feel a movement

of life that is growing there.

Smile of knowing along with a pang of anguish

Their destiny is not with us.

Tears yet to come…

Tense sense of peace…

The tide of the Divine

Pulsing with each beat of my heart

Sparkling unseen inside me

Is imperceptibly working its transformation

Calling to purpose…

Becoming…

Twilight falls, my favorite time

Dawn is beautiful, Day a delight

After the setting sun

has stolen its colors from the sky

The heavens are the perfect shade

With the stars peeking out.

Who will I be?
