Gift of us

silence of the morning
finds our limbs in restful embrace
i breathe in your warmth
lingering of night's silvery ride

white dawn slowly glimmers
shading corners dusky light
wool blanket wraps tight our
pink memories and purple hued journey

here, now
my pale lips seek your kiss
calming beat of roaring sea
grateful for us

Happy Holidays to all my readers and friends !!!

Christmas Star

Stormy nights

missed turn

third chances

unexpected rain

spilled milk 

burnt toast 

rejection letter 

unanswered prayer

miscalculated step 


unpared dream

rough edges

turbulent waves

stormy nights  

unfinished us 

i am thankful too

Thank you

no hummingbirds nor

red roses garden outside

my glass window

no blue oceans nor

colourful Christmas parade

my street  

no turkey laden feast nor

polished silverware set

my table

   but my heart is full    

blessings from

friends and family

days, bold & exciting

nights, young & passionate

with grateful heart

thank you for inspiring me

Our Canadian Thanksgiving was last month.   But I wish my US friends and readers a Happy Thanksgiving.  


Also Thank You to everyone leaving encouraging comments, and giving me "awards".   I have created a page, Compliments From Friends, to show my appreciation.  

Gentle night

i inhale your tender sighs

warming my soft breasts

i savor the slow beat

flickering candle lights

i listen to silky cadence

enveloped in your ardent arms

our hands grasp firmly

sea of our passion

cherishing breadth and

fullness of precious time

gentle is the night

when we celebrate us
