Each Talking to you post is a little bit of myself. A bread crumb of my existence. An insight into why I write what I write, and where it comes from. My hope is to openly express, as best as I can, through poetry and photography my "life feelings". These posts are as sporadic as … Continue reading Talking to you…Guide
Ubiquitous – April 18, 2024
You taught me how to walk away How to stuff my feelings “far, far” away~ I never needed anyone anyway.

Sharing a little bit of love from out there in the big wide world…
Out My Window – December 21, 2023
I can’t stop looking~ It’s calling me with it’s shivers And tempting with it’s new form Hanging on and up Until the dead of the last breeze I speak, like the wind is cold But it has changed And so have I Lost or losing is nothing new A solid backdrop never ceases to pull … Continue reading Out My Window – December 21, 2023
Reflection – February 5, 2024
The water moved in all sorts of ways Pooling in circles around little circles Swirling… I swam for awhile Before I drove away
Existing – March 27, 2024
The remnants of winter Linger in the cooler spring mornings With grey skies, layers of clouds Becoming lost in my own thoughts How delicate today is And tomorrow, never given ~ The days are only numbered if you count
Things Matter – April 4, 2022
The shadow of things Floating over my head Making time So fragile Every blink Something has passed So scared to miss All of these things ~ I’m missing All of these things
Flush – April 11, 2022
I want you to hear me You are amazing I didn’t even know it When you landed in my lap I was and am the broken one But a single person can only contain so much And I live in constant fear You are going to notice To realize Truly I am no better Than … Continue reading Flush – April 11, 2022
Talking to you…Searching for the Ladybugs 3/6/24
Dedication page: Many Greetings, Many Faces For the past year-ish, I have been sharing very sparingly what I write because, well to be honest, I think it’s crap. I am not being honest with myself, and I feel it in every word that I force out on the paper. I have recoiled a bit into … Continue reading Talking to you…Searching for the Ladybugs 3/6/24

Sometimes I try and lose myself…

I miss those days All of them.
Devotion – February 16, 2024
It lives in my chest The pit of my stomach The corner of my eyes ~ I have always felt…alone ~ A cradle Where I wake And where I fall asleep
I Am My Own – February 19, 2024
The treetops are dirty As the sun goes down The wind is gentle Through my fingers ~ Lines separating ages And ages of things Dusk is when I sing Where I disappear I come alive In the colors The calmness of the day The piles of thoughts ~ Another dimension Flirting incandescently with The times … Continue reading I Am My Own – February 19, 2024
~Blurry~ February 13, 2024
I was so bummed when I didn’t get this shot! The sky was clear, Orion’s Belt was perfect, and it just whisked right by me. I didn’t have the right camera, lens, or setup, but I quickly opened it on my phone to see if I had caught its essence in any form. As I … Continue reading ~Blurry~ February 13, 2024
Roll Away – January 24, 2024
I saw a glimmer, I saw a shine You visited me And sat for a second Until you decided, to roll away You visited me On my cheek Until you decided To roll away~
Brevity – January 2, 2024
A glimpse out the glass door One leaf was up on it’s edge doing cartwheels across the frozen tundra It had a bounce to it’s step While the buttery morning light illuminated it’s glory Losing my mind in the time it took to go it’s path Laying motionless in the short winter grass Traveling with … Continue reading Brevity – January 2, 2024

Happy 72nd birthday mom (pretty sure, yes, 72). I guess I have been thinking about you on your birthday for the past few years…it’s felt good to remember. As good as it can feel. The tears still come, and all too often, I love you. ~~~ Talking to you…Today 12/30/2019 Today is my mom’s 67th … Continue reading Talking to you…December 30, 2023
Hole • March 17, 2021
This hole is so little, It’s so dark It’s as if a needle pierced the surface

We All Lose Something Now and Again – December 15, 2023
I’m sitting somewhere In-between Life begging at the knees But I don’t want to go Stripping me down And whispering All of these things I don’t want to go It dances and sings In a warm glow I still don’t want to go It laughs and tickles Tempting me so To go… There is too … Continue reading We All Lose Something Now and Again – December 15, 2023
Sentient – August 17, 2023
Framed And in windows Rustling and letting go Sending messages in Morse code Down chilly streets Chattering And telling all the best secrets
