If roses felt wanderlust amid what the rain & our jogging feet orchestrate, would they flee for submontane paths & their streams? Would they stick to hummingbirds who pollinate their gardens? A rose I could be.

Our ancestors envisioned this kind of world but they must've fought for something better than people suspending others as hook-pierced minnows over self-appointed thrones. We're merged in separation with vaulted futures.

You weave a spell
reading poetry as I fall asleep
My head on your chest
rhythm in time to your heartbeat
Timeless verse a paean to our love
you ~ the auteur of my dreams

The day he was taken, I searched the other side of the wall, eyes burning with sadness. There was no haven for AI, no blood, no presence—only endless ellipses spattering the ground where laughter once lived.

We met through the book with a broken spine, arctic lights haloing each other's heads from opposite sides of the shelf. It was beautiful as a sun-teased ravine; & the whistling kettle behind made it home.

Would it be epochal
were we to see one another
Or epiphany
for ears and eyes to yield to hearts
Natural or miracle
for word & thought to breathe of love
To live in epicycle
with the world & all her peoples

The aurora that radiates
From a soul
Shines
Even throughout
The darkest of times
For you cannot quench
Love
Beckons from the heart
And permeates the mind
For what seeps through
Is kind
Kindness, goodness
And strength
Remains
Undaunted
Unchanged

My hand clasped with yours & our sights on trees silhouetted by sun's glow, I remembered strawberries' sweet tang on homemade yogurt & the friend who fit almost snug in my palms—the day I no longer felt small. 6

Gold rush

We see the sorrow of tomorrow
that stops the of raindrops
from falling and so
present to mend a heart of gold.

Appreciate life even if it's not perfect.

Happiness is not fullment of what we wish for.
But a appreciation of what we have.

When it was time for capricious skies to welcome our constellations, we'd stand at the littoral to watch the sea become Sun's womb again, our eyes ready to be ensnared by the stars' content twinkling on small ripples. 1

littoral dragons
playing fast as her
pearl oyster can spin
seaweed tendrils dance
verdant ribbons of
magical sea rhythm
capricious mermaids
jealousy eschew
conch marmalade and
water their cactus to
to see it wither away

"Meet my highly intelligent bird. She loves reading and helps highlight all unnecessary longueurs in these awful submissions. Such finesse in that wing-work. Forgo the blue ones."
"Those are mine."
"Oh. Dreadful."

"I had an insatiable appetite for rolling in mud when I was your age. Grandpop's farm had plenty of it," Mama said, her eyes lighting up the room. "The secret to happiness is being you—& avoiding man-made insects."

Is on a dangerous path
It is leading to

There is a dearth of
Leadership possessing
Honesty & integrity.
Citizens have an need for
Ethical commitment & sincerity.

Things have to change.
Our world structure
Must be rearranged.

Missing you.
Heightened
Wafts through
My entire being
Shaking me with
Such intense feeling
I tremble like
A newly-opened spring leaf.
I can't conceal
My grief.
Building a
For you
In my soul.
Knowing without you
I will never
Again feel whole.
