~Winter’s Bride~

~Winter’s Bride~ I kissed you at those cemetery gates, In that moment, We sealed our fate. As I kissed you on the lips, …cold breaths, Between the sips. You reached for me, …I was lost, Losing my sanity, In that winter’s mist. Just one touch, …a single kiss. Will I become your winter’s bride? Cold […]

Legend has it, That when the moon is full, …and bright, You can see her, But only at the hour of midnight. She comes with cat like grace, Trying, Searching, ….seeking, Her reflection, A moment to see her face. Cursed she was, Because of love, ….or was it pride? Depending on whose telling the tale. […]

Rat..a…tat….tat, Rat..a…tat….tat, And my mind just drifts away, To other, Long ago days. Splash…splash…splash, Oh, I was so fast….. Each puddle got bigger, …and bigger, As the rain fell drop […]

Fragments: ~Wishes on Wings~

An older one. My son returned safely from two deployments! 🙂 ~Wishes On Wings~ I cry, From love and fear, At this moment, I would give anything, ….anything, To have you near. Now you fly, Across those far off seas, That take you even farther, ….away from me. I remember the sweetness of your baby […]
