blue heron

in a small pond

the fountain spouts,

and six canadian geese hang out

on a layover flight.

a blue heron watches it all.

She is home.

Shared Dreams

Posted on September 6, 2015 by eteal

on the yellow sofa

two heads are pressed together.

the sound of soft snores

comforts me.

shared dreams

are they sharing the same dream?

safety

Posted on September 4, 2015 by eteal

They say there are only two emotions:

Love and Fear.

pim in pocket

from the safety of my pocket

i can explore your world –

(with the help from a friend,)

i can learn the ways of love.

They say there are only two emotions:

Love and Fear.

Be a Pocket of Love.

Ugly?

Posted on August 25, 2015 by eteal

please stop telling the story of the ugly duckling the way you do.

some of us are ducks.

not swans.

i know you think it is not the point of the story.

but all ducks are not the same.

some of us even perch on power lines.

We too are beautiful.

We are ALL beYOUtiful.

swamp kitty?

Posted on August 23, 2015 by eteal

stopped by the side of an almost road,

i’m looking into the tangle of vines

and suddenly You appear

siamese in swamp

Confidently walking across my path –

“what?”

You seemed to say,

“people think you are domestic too!”

songs

Posted on August 21, 2015 by eteal

how can someone so small, who seems to wear a frown,

bring so much joy & make such a loud sound?

frog on tissuethe question is rhetorical

for even as i pose it – a voice breaks thru my Beloved’s song –

‘oh will you please be quiet!’
