we are our heart
we are our heart, not what we own,
the feeling part, that never has to atone,
the part that is open, no matter how or where,
we are in life, the part that always cares♥

for senior dogs
I am a senior dog
Maybe there is some grey on my muzzle
That does not mean I cannot nuzzle
maybe my step has lost some spring
but winter can be a beautiful thing
maybe at times your
voice I don’t hear
but I feel you, loud and clear
you are my reason
your love keeps me going
through every season
it just keeps on growing
don’t turn you back on me
because I’m not young
I have heart enough for twenty
And a great sense of fun

she lives with ghosts
she lives in the past,
ghosts live in her head,
long ago she should have
put all those ghosts to bed.
her view of the past,
idealized self-delusion,
as she pulls others down
into her inner confusion.

i walked the circle,
its borders soft,
round and round,
my heart was tossed.
so then i chose
to break away.
another circle awaits,
on another day.

sweet birds in flight...9/11 remembrance
sweet birds in flight,
sweet away, the night.
bring peace and love.

on wings of glory,
singing nature's song.

a story,
of a world,
gone so wrong
