Sun will shine bright
in that naive, listless
chambered heart
it too, shall survive
Amazed at strength's source
presently seeking clarity
of buried thoughts
as beckoning hope
carefully calls
a Strong heart keeps marching
renewing old dreams
a fierce, fiery emergence
takes a stand
a challenge for the taking
in the dawn of daybreak
embracing the dream...
in the making

Invisible Keepsakes
Invisible keepsakes
those memories of you
they've charted my path
unconscious but true
weeping willow
melancholic soul
the long lost wait
has taken its toll
the sadness is sacred
though the dream is gone
that hope of someday
I secretly counted on
some things were just
not meant to be
those dizzy notions
caused complacency
keeping me captive
those memories have cost
invisible keepsakes
all the while lost
those memories of you
they've charted my path
unconscious but true
weeping willow
melancholic soul
the long lost wait
has taken its toll
the sadness is sacred
though the dream is gone
that hope of someday
I secretly counted on
some things were just
not meant to be
those dizzy notions
caused complacency
keeping me captive
those memories have cost
invisible keepsakes
all the while lost

Allowing
the spirit of allowing
brings bountless gifts
as karmic inheritance reigns
them in - enveloping a heart
open enough to accept
and be at peace with
whatever may be
may you be blessed

Dusty Doll - Dusty Shelf
I am the doll long forgotten
once put upon a dusty shelf
as love spread to a new, shinier,
version of my former self
a more exciting one
quickly replaced by
one that didn't ask for anything
not even the warmth of love
one that didn't speak
only to reply
"yes" and "no" and shake
her head in constant admiration
she sheds no tears
and wants for nothing
a trophy it seems
I am non-existent
in a world of dreams
as I have become tired
and worn at the seems
I no longer work as
I once did
even with fresh, new batteries
I am broken
unwanted
deserted
and so I wait
for a turn once again
when I will be picked up
dusted off, and admired
for a mane of gold, eyes of blue
and a heart of gold
and maybe something more
even if only from afar
oh I dream to be auspicious...

RE: "A Mini Primer on Grief Work"
Check this out.... I happened upon Bonnie's blog today and it really spoke to me in light of my current state of mind. It's very informative regarding the grieving process.
Be kind to yourselves.

A Dream ....Too Far
I have tucked your words
beneath my pillow
in hopes that my dreams
shall capture them and
bring peace to my
restless slumber
and maybe, just maybe
for some fleeting moments
before I wake, I shall truly
exist as you have written
me out to be and I may wake
with the proud memory of
my grand performance in the
starring role upon which you
have cast me
beneath my pillow
in hopes that my dreams
shall capture them and
bring peace to my
restless slumber
and maybe, just maybe
for some fleeting moments
before I wake, I shall truly
exist as you have written
me out to be and I may wake
with the proud memory of
my grand performance in the
starring role upon which you
have cast me
