Haven's Space

I wonder if here
lies the doorway to heaven
where I will find you

waiting for me as ever
our souls one again
is this our heaven

will the lord be there
and angles singing so sweet
I long to be there

in your arms once more
and your kisses wipe my tears
walking together

Alone, I Wait

love abandoned me
my heart torn rented apart
leaving my cold soul

pain and sorrow mine
will fill what life I have left
till you come for me

In the Dark Of Night

it makes no sense now
not to my mind nor my heart
how life comes and goes.

with but a whisper
a soft sigh deep in the night
what was is no more

hearts should be stronger
love should hold all of it tight
that we may hold on

Bones

oh she said so evenly
so without feeling
those ashes are just bones
it's not him you know
it doesn't really matter
where you might put them.
these bones, these cold bones


all that I have left of him
he that was my life.

Our Mighty Oak

as I leave my home for the last time
I shall take with me but memories.
our little blue house once filled with
the laughter of children. now silent,
empty only ghosts walk there.. I leave
behind my heart and my love and  my tears.
he is gone now and the house is no longer
alive.as I hold him tight within my heart,
everything we once loved rests there too.


passing years have fled
oak trees roots so deep and wide
ghosts now walk my home

Little Blue Bird House

the last time I was there
looking out over our flower filled yard,
I knew it would be my last visit.
there high on a metal pole was our little blue bird house
hung so many years ago and filled each spring with a nest.
sweet musical sounds came softly from with in,
as each new nest filled with life.
deep within my heart I wished that you were with me once more
holding my hand as you whistle a soft melody answered by a sweet refrain.
But now as I leave forever, I wonder will some else love this tiny blue
house as much as we did.

An Heirloom So Sweet

dreams of you last night
lush lavender warms my shin
your perfume lingers

that scent weaves slowly
shimmering dark shadows move
melding into me

lavender so strong
takes me in the nights dark heat
caught within my sheets

dawn finds my skin hot
the need of you still remains
I slick with your scent

this morning brings me
once more to your dresser top
the heirlooms you bought

bottles of perfume
pale liquid of lavender
your heirlooms so sweet 




love come back once more to me
lavender
sweet

Autumn Sadness

fresh smell of new hay
brings back whiffs of summers heat  
wind howls at my soul

splendor autumn
creeps slowly into my heart
fall comes without you

His Aura Remains

his aura remained
a curious radiant glow

sparkling dew drops
wispy movements

fills the nights depths
the soil that holds him fast

swayed in earths tides
the tides of all men

dreams springs past sorrow
on which his aura rode

All The Smiles He Gave

distract me I plead
from sorrows loss and cruel pain
from this endless grief

all the hurtful dreams
that I may see what traps me
all the smiles he gave.

Love's Lement

Loves Lament



our bond was painless
living each day together
some grumbles were heard

gone by winters freeze
your sweet scent lingers here still
sheets still warm with you

lost now our hopes dreams

remains but cold memories
summers heat no more

I would breath you in
lock you deep beneath my eyes
fast holding your soul

cry cry the lament
you walk no more in my heart
leaving me alone


life's trials came and went
you stayed by my side always
even unto death

The Door Way

each morning he went

down the steps through the door way
trimming buds each step

summers gift to him
flowers for his labors work
tending his life's love

now I walk alone
down that path he loved so well
he like summer gone

his garden
planted with springs gifts
tenderly
nursed by him
green shoots came forth aplenty
the promise to late

maggie a small red sheparerd
was his shadow in life
he lead she followed.

her sweet brown eyes
watched every move he made
always by his side.

maggie thought she was a cat
she sat on our laps
and slept on our bed.

each night he returned from work
she lay down at his feet
waiting for a good rub.

winter found her
before the fireplace
her deep brown eyes unknowable.

maggie loved snow
romping through drifts
with a black nose cold, eyes bright.

she lived for many years
and when it was time
he took care of it.

we never spoke of it again
he, moving a little slower
was never the same

his little shadow
guard dog, loving pet
gone forever

he too now is gone
from a the blue house we shared
I miss them both.
