Soar:
Red tail and red shoulder hawks
Osprey heron swan
Have graced my home skies
Two bald eagles’ soar
Against crystal a blue sky
Majestic blessings
Appreciated
Hope soars eternal!
In the eye of the eagle
Limitlessness is

I am Lorraine
I am Lorraine
I was sacrificed as the first-born female to the god of property and prosperity
Indentured there forth to keep the borders intact
Against all hardship, annoyances, and conditions
That is why I am named of battle and land
After the province, Joan of Arc fought to hold
“Made famous in battle” by German tongue
In Latin, I am “Sea ...

Change is good
She said -- change is good!
I’ve said it before
Drenched in frustration
Trapped in dedication
With a windowless view
When change happens
When change overtakes
The body – The heart
And the time comes…
Mothers know it
There’s no holding it back
Without pain and suffering
When the time comes…
When the winds blow
When the lava flows
When...

Crazy soup
Beyond logic
Beyond reason
Beyond the science of life
Crazy drama
Crazy rules
Crazy, crazy, crazy soup
Drown out truth
Drown out agenda
Drown out curiosity

Flavored with the age of Aquarius
Finished with a drizzle of…

I know what time it is
I know what time it is
A new wall-clock’s
Hands move ever so slowly
As the hour passes quickly by
Mesmerizing my attention
Each life choice seems small
Each breath almost effortless
Until hindsight enlarges
Magnifying the moments
Of our lives – highlighting the times
When we held our breath
Life is long
Even when time is short
Seconds slow

Over
Out all night, at the Madhatter’s Birthday Party
Validating the quantum-ness of the White Rabbit
Enjoying the deep waters because I know how to swim
Reverie aside … I realize my passion

Hurricanes, floods
Earthquakes, tsunamis
Drought, devastation…
Moved humanity to explore
Grow and evolve
A vulnerable species
Learning to survive
Climate changes,
Infestation of poisonous
Plants, insects, and animals
The air we breath
Always home to free-floating
Microorganisms

5-7-5 thoughts
Do you know the cost?
How many prayed for it?
The price of world peace
What did you expect
It would take to initiate
Global Awareness?
One-hundred-year drought
One-hundred-year flu
Hard energetic reboot

Like magic
Become food
crusty, tangy, sweet
shaped by a baker’s hand

Stay Safe?
SAFE?
When has any human been safe?
Lions, Tigers, and Bears… OH MY!
Mosquitos, Ticks, Killer Bees…
Cancer, Bacteria, Viruses…
But the greatest of these
Has always been humans
This is the High Holiday Time
For most of our belief systems
A remembrance of great - Unsafe times
When the masses were protected
And individuals’ sacrificed
We lived to see another d...
