lost in my thoughts
meandering through the day
time evaporates


***

we reap
from the sacrifices 
of those who came before


***

letting go
of lifelong dreams is hard when
life has other plans


***

time is 
different
when travelling


***

my cats always know
when I'm going on a trip–
suitcase is the tell


***

on the cusp 
of a new age
my heart is tender


***

the power of
a single, shy
smile 


***

the melody plays
and I am transported through
time and space to you


***

you have indelibly
written the poems of your love
on my heart forever


***

sunlight dances
upon the page
illuminating words
