Clouds whispering by
on a warm summer day
The sky peacefully
...turns from blue to grey
...
New love has formed
Paths ahead to be shared
Lives drawing closer
Are you scared?
...
Living with swill
and praying for slumber
Waiting for God
to call my number
...
My feelings for you
...are on the table.
Do you act on it?
...Are you able?
...
An angel walked in.
Like sunshine,
on a warm summer day.
You cast your beauty'
...
To this, to this, I must appeal.
Save my heart I mustn't squeal
I claim the fifth to this ordeal.
Iron bars and prison chains.
...
Love lost, to what cost?
This disease betrayed.
I wished you'd stayed.
To what cost? Oh such a loss.
...
Excited to come home,
and see signs of my dear.
Even though she's not,
anywhere near.
...
If I had known,
I had an ability to write
I'd have gotten it right,
...and started so much sooner
...
From a distance,
you watch over me.
Sensing,
your presence.
...
Images captured
Random moments,
forever frozen in time
Focused on the subject
...
In a stupor I write this
Mind fighting for words,
Diluted focus,
misting my mind.
...
To this,
.......to this,
I must appeal.
Save my heart,
...
I lost my heart,
but now I found it
Serenity begins,
...to melt around it
...
Sitting at your computer,
…day after day
Another world,
…in which you play
...
I was born in Seattle in 1970 and raised all over Washington State and parts of Idaho I am currently residing in Wenatchee Washington. I am a fledgling to writing poetry. I try to write from the heart, expressing the feelings of the moment, in an attempt to capture them visually in words to share with everyone. I can only improve through my perceptions of others and their views on reality. Other than that I live by my moral instincts. I had been in the Food and Beverage industry for the last 15 years or so. I've been anywhere from F&B manager to Dishwasher. I had stuck with it for the love & excitement of the life. I am now currently working towards a degree here at the Wenatchee Valley College. Oh yes, not to forget, my Mother and my most personal friends have been the inspiration behind most of my writings. I will continue to reflect, and grow as a writer as I learn the craft and am able to regress to my earlier life, or just spew it from my present thoughts. I will continue this sort of daily log on an un-daily premise. This is no promise but I will do my best. Please follow me on my new blog site and comment or make suggestions. I am adding poet/writer related stuff there regularly.

Summer Rain
Clouds whispering by
on a warm summer day
The sky peacefully
...turns from blue to grey
Thunder rolls
in the distant hills
I feel the air
...it's growing still
Cumulus engulfing
the hills all around
From the west
...there comes more sounds
Soon after that
I see the first light
A flash in the pan
...a lightning strike!
Lightning and thunder
drawing forward
A rain dropp dashes
...off my shoulder
Summer storms
they’re like no other
Like old friends
...and young lovers!
Standing here
as it showers down
Warm summer rains
...standing here
