Hear the Thunder (a poem)

Hear the Thunder

Written April 9th, 2013

Can you hear the thunder roar
Pounding loud on your door?
Rain, rain, dances aground,
Lightning flashes without a sound
The storm will knock your door down.

Can you hear the thunder growl
As the wind rushes by with a howl?
Rain, rain, lashes in the fray
Lightning darts across the grey
The storm will sweep your house away.

A Little Secret (a poem)

A Little Secret

Written November 20th, 2012

To tell the truth,

I think about you

When I’m curled up in bed

And raindrops dance over my head

A vulnerable time to think about hopes and fears;

Playful rainfall can easily become tears.

I shouldn't dream of you in this way

But I have a hunch our destinies are intertwined;

It’s the way you always find

A smile in your pocket to give me

On days I’m so turned around I can’t see

When I have massive mountains to ascend

You give me freedom to fly with the love you lend.

Lately I wonder about you all the time

To be honest, I think you have a hunch too

Midnight Rain (a poem)

Midnight Rain

Written October 14th, 2011

Sweet velvet rain
Pattering on my roof
Sing me softly to sleep

The gentle whispers
Reach my ears
As you travel in swirling rivulets
Across the shingles
Of this midnight house

Tempest Storm (a poem)

Tempest Storm

Written August 14th, 2011

Thunder roaring in the sky
Lightning flashes blinding bright
Rain falling till it starts to flood
Take me, seize me, fly me high
Away from this life into the windblown night
Tempest storm I feel you running in my blood

(Raise Your Voice) Me Being Me (a poem)

Raise Your Voice

Me Being Me

Written July 12th, 2011



There’s a little car racing along

Bright paint sparkling in the sun

And a girl leaning out the passenger window

Tapping a beat on the door to a lively song

Her long hair flies back in the wind

And she has a smile

Big enough for the whole world

Enjoying something simple for a while

The people in town watch her go

And smile quietly to themselves

Remembering the infectious grin

That helped ease a deep sorrow

(Dear Marius) Now You Know (a poem, a dedication)

Dear Marius

Now You Know

Written April 25th, 2011

The tears of Angels

Fall

            Fall

From the great sky

So mighty

Each drop

Slapping me in the face

Stinging my skin

Though they’re so soft

Today

The rain I love

Bites, merciless

Hiding From the Storm (a poem)

Hiding From the Storm

Written March 31st, 2011

The rain is falling outside

Pattering softly on my window

Playing the soft tune

Of a lullaby

On my roof

We are hiding from the storm

Tucked safely in each other’s arms

Keeping the cold away

Separated from this harsh world

By the blankets around us

Nothing can hurt us

Him and I

While we’re surrounded

By this love

A Meeting with the Goddess (a poem)

A Meeting with the Goddess

Written March 3rd, 2011

In the dead of the night

While my family sleeps

I am awake and restless

So from the house I creep

Outside beneath the summer moon

I do not care if the neighbors see

The crazy girl barefoot in the yard

Only hours before dawn, pulling herself into a tree

A Drop of Water (a poem)

A Drop of Water

I am a little drop of water
Falling from the sky,
In a thunderstorm,
And I land in a stream,
Which gets wider and turns into a river,
Where boats ride past me
And the other water droplets
Until the water comes to a waterfall,
The boats branch off to another part of the river,
And I keep going
And fall of the edge,
With all the other water drops
And I am flying with my comrades
Until I land at the bottom
