Poems and publications

As I read Finding Her, I ache for the woman in this epistolary collection, and for myself: a woman also on this mending journey…

DANCE WITH THE DUENDE

 
I
 
Stomp, Stamp, Tap.
 
Strings pull
Language Flows Like Water,
Music Listens
 to the
 Fall.
 
Stomp, Stamp, Tap.
 
Voices of Time Past
Speak
to the
Beat.
 
Floor Breathes
Like An Infant,
 
Small and Quick.
 
Language Flows Like Water,
Over the Banks of My Mind.
 
II
 
Oh Thunderous Heartbeat
Innocent Ears are Christened
as
Notes Bleed
with the
Ink
of this
Pen.
 
III
 
Nursery Rhymes,
Take Me Back,

Before Him,

Before It ...
The Knowledge
of All
that is
Mortal ...
 
Love.
