The aspen in the mountains are surrendering their quaking leaves to the colors of fall. They give the appearance of rivers of gold between banks of evergreens. Pouring down the mountains into, beckoning pools of multicolor thickets.

The White Horse Dream
Movement of impassioned dreams
He's strong of spirit, and gentle of heart
Distinguishing beauty and grace.
Measure and form are awarded here
Round about the ring moving through the gates
Aristocratic arch and athletic make
Treading with well grounded foot-work
Each extension a musical beat
Elegance with sprightly feet
Then he glides by glittering light
I lose him in the splendor...Night.

The Smile
Hi, it says!
Inviting participation,
even though its hard to smile
when your truly sad.
It becomes a mask
to fend of the questions,
even if it is true concern.
I show the world I have no concerns
I have no reason to be upset
But behind this shield
Turmoil, rage, and incomprehension.
To tender I suppose.
Do most people feel this way?
Truly unhappy, finding no ease
Walking through this world protecting
themselves with their own shield,
A HAPPY SMILE!

I awoke with a smile
I held you tight all through the night.
such a wonderful sensation.
As I stirred to the morning light,
I realized you were gone.
I lay in bed awestruck and breathless,
pondering for a very long time.
You must have been sent as a dream for my heart.

Visiting the Green Room
The strangest sensation keeps coming over me,
It has happened only with you.
The tension, and twang in my brain,
This feeling is stronger and clearer each time.
The sadness and confession in my heart,
I now recognize it as it is coming on.
The anger it causes between the two,
Causing my pulse to quicken and eyebrows to pinch.
The frustration knowing the emotion is uncalled for,
My body stiffens and my thoughts become rigid.

The Arms of an Angel
Oh that line hurts my heart,My memory floods with every little face
that I helped, or pushed over the,
Rainbow bridge.
My brain understands the situation of everyone of them.
My heart does not.
My heart hurts so much it rains on my face.
My heart hurts so much I can not speak or utter a sound.
All it knows is one moment there is a life all warm and fuzzy
Then...
All it sees is the limp, cold, joyless body devoid of life.
I could not help them....

Twisted Nickers
She started her day already twisted
Hardened and resentful
Those twisted nickers cause squalls and explosions
Hampering the progress of everyone
Tale of the twist caused all to be cranky
The work produced was sloppy and half-assed
Discouraged, others despaired
The day was tedious
And all felt flustered and agitated
By those "Twisted Nickers".

Fleeting Thoughts
Sometimes we become
so deep in thought
We lose our way
in the darkness
for these thoughts
not always contemplated
Are found
In a chasm of Ponder
So they are revealed
only by chance
Each idea morphs into
Connections and sheds more light
If the thoughts
are allowed to form, then develop
the deeper we can go
If the moment
is not marked it is easily lost.
Because new ideas are still a rare revelation
Our thoughts are fleeting
and uncomfortable in the light.

The origin of "Blind Faith"
In the beginning we had only nature.
Nature taught us the instincts to survive.
True logic evolves from natural instinct.
Because it is natural instinct that we seek guidance
From those who have learned many of natures lessons
When they are given trust some learn to manipulate others with that trust
Single minded authority became intimidating
When something is repeated enough it becomes truth
This truth is passed on to the young.
These truths became beliefs
Belief was something humans needed to answer questions
So belief became faith
So faith is based on trust
Belief became reality
So true logic is skewed by trust, belief, faith...
So faith overcame logic (reasoning)
By the need to trust, which is our most basic of instincts
So logic (reasoning) truly is only as broad as your belief is.
We have "Blind Faith" because of our most basic instinct, to trust.

Enough is enough
Please no more,
No more hurt, no more pain.
Don't believe I can take much more.
No more questions, no more transitions.
I have grieved for many years.
Please no more.
No more strain, no more tears
Don't want to face the light of day.
No more labor, no more effort.
I have always been here enduring life.
Please no more...

Ode to my Blankie
Given to me in my time of need
Feel the love it means
A soft warm multicolored friend
Always here, always there
A moment of comfort when I'm without
Anytime, anywhere
Wiping away my tears morning, noon, and night
Wrapped about me in a fuzzy hug
Comfortably comforting
Ever gentle, ever helpful

Betrayal
You promised you'd always be there
What happened?
I ache inside with longing
missing you.
Somewhere down the line it went wrong
confussed again.
Frustration about how you have left me
slowly deteriorating.
I am losing one part of myself at a time
heart broken.
Where have you gone? Where have you gone?
Don't understand.
I am nearing the end of my faith and trust
help me.
I feel betrayed by your lack of commitment
shedding me.
I know I'll never be the same again
I'm dying.

Why me
Why me
Am I so low
and easy to forget?
That I get passed over
even after we just met?
You don't even see me
even though I stand right here.
My being is so close
you must feel how near.
I know I'm not much
but I'm a living soul...see me.
Do you not understand the pain.
Don't you comprehend the mismanagement at hand
I've lost myself in this moment of time
drug-out and on my own.

Untitled
I flow gently through the water
With grace and elegance
My veils dance about me
A smooth movement of a blade
Searching for emotional discharge
Each glide to a measured beat
Restless for the moment of truth
Hesitation for tranquility; I move forward
A sudden transition of freedom
Disentangling misgivings from myself
Freed from the common modes of thinking
Surprising my grief and pain
Gratification of the heart
Peace for my patience

Stardust
Imagine that we've existed since the first moments of time
In the beauty and brightness of the birth of the stars
A part of the deep interiors of the ancient stars long since exploded
We are brought forth from stardust
The primeval elements make up our spirits
Each breath we draw was once a part of every living being
Beyond the years we are all kindred in radiance
We are to become stars and then return to dust

Interwoven
My artistic history
Recording histories secrets
History forever expressed
My life expressed
Through expressive hands
Expressed by detail
Flowing little details
Life detail marked
Details fine line
Architecture in line
No lines blocked
Line of life
Bound by life
True life design
Life captured me
Loved by me
Hope mine inspires
Me, my face
My own face
Captured face forever
Faces of love
Art is love
My love recorded
Love colors rainbows
No contrasting rainbows
Twisted rainbow soup
Rainbows often fly
My dreams fly
Spirit flying free
Fly away forever
I've drawn forever
Shades forever enhanced
Forever spinning thoughts
Imagine my thoughts
Hanging thought chimes
Thoughts smear paper
Recorded on paper
Pristine paper unmarked
Paper begins history

Fall 2004
It all started with a heart
A hard year
No work, No play
With love we made it
A symbol of success, a filigree heart
I found myself
New year, new life
A place for my faith
A symbol of belief; a five pointed star
Back to school
Books to read, books to write
Education in life and death
A symbol of dreams, a reach to the heavens
Loved my work
During births, during deaths
Admiration for the will to live
A symbol of belonging, a sign of sanctuary
Move three times
Planted seeds, plated hope
I wilted and did not grow
A symbol of luck, a lively but we know as lady
Brand new world
Two seasons, two lives
Test taken and results hard won
A symbol of health, snakes twisted around a staff
Diagnosis terminal life
Lost freedom, lost dreams
Shoved into an abyss
A symbol of hope, all dress in black
Dealing with moments
Forced talk, forced drugs
Adapting but not accepting
A symbol of prayer, "May the road rise..."
Brave new steps
Little kittens, little pups
In charge of the whole nine yards
A symbol of life, nine lives is what I got
Falling into place
Leaves of trees, leaves of books
A new direction with hope and faith
A symbol of endurance, an arrow through my heart
Life goes on
Dreaming goals, dreaming possibilities
A life I nurtured flies away
A symbol of determination, unchanging yet ever changing
The future hope
Long life, long love
Swimming in a pool of uncertainty
A symbol of links, moments of my life strung together
