my heart, oh my heart, it fills my mouth spills onto my chest a plethora of liquid love well blessed because I expelled those demons those pains those sufferings those feeling of inadequacy of needing to be noticed and appreciated by the lot of them I don’t need to be understood any longer I don’t [...]

Poem: personal astronomy – 12/12/21
as I speak, I wonder, what is there to gather from this world we inhabit? what is there to take away from it? to cherish, to treasure from it? so much to glean so many concepts felt, seen and thriving is this feeling I have within me for I have grown wiser from my experiences played puppet and now I dance the strings with ease it’s electrifying to know that I can direct my movements rest assured, Life is calling, finally, and I am welcomed by it.

Poem: Rain Dance – 29/08/21
Though the clouds are heavy with sadness, I look to them not with madness, but with joy, irreverent laughter and thrown wide open arms. Calling them, cajoling them, to gush forth with their tears so I can dance away ‘neath their offerings, jive away my encumbering fears. [...]
Poem: Blessed – Spoken Word and Text – 13/07/20
I am blessed here, in a home so warm and loving, no matter if it’s empty, aside from myself, I can feel the love lingering, it is forthcoming. It reaches, grabs hold like little hungry fingers would reach for a snack or chocky milk, enveloping around me, arms tight and strong and true,
Prose Poetry: The Beckoning Seascape – 01/04/20
I wonder what it would be to live like in the sea, surrounded by clown fish and anemones, and smiling jellyfish that could sting as they please.

Poem: I loved her from the moment she put pen to paper – 21/02/20
I loved her from the moment she put pen to paper. Her heartfelt poetry just sang and sang, like a robin whose eggs have presently been laid, a proud woman she is, I loved her from the moment she put pen to paper. She sought the times when her heart ached, flowed, and ebbed, [...]
