Spring

Spring breeze such as fresh linen
Skipping stones across my waters
As plateaus my years create
Spring breezes open country
My sandals key the gate.

Walls

Tell me how the world looks
from behind your bars
Are you safe within your hell
Without any cares
Do you sleep so peaceful
In the warmth of cinder walls
Valuing the silence

Tired

I have no words in me tonight
I'm sapped and drained
Not left a fight
my hours seem to blend in days
Existing in continuous haze
Tired....so tired today
So tired I have nothing to say.

IF I COULD LOVE

If I could be a seed of life
planted with love and sown with intent
Yearn for tenderness and stretch for light
air flowing through soil to my lifes begin
I would sprout true brilliant green
so small and fragile at first unseen
Then I would search for wind and rain
I would praise my makers dream
God the colors I will be - embarrassingly
No shame will become me
If a seed of life I could be.
