Standing Still – December 28, 2025
The light was a hue of red, it had turned the sky pink, and the snow melting on the ground followed suit. I lost myself standing in the open doorway in the early hours of this December day. A cool breeze held me captive and played in my tangled morning hair. My senses were at … Continue reading Standing Still – December 28, 2025
Grief’s Lucidity – August 20, 2025
There was no grief in the beginning. It was just absence. A nothingness, I guess there were twinges from other peoples glares. I wanted them to stop. The eyes to turn away; because maybe, they would see what was really in front of them. A broken, confused, tired little girl who wanted to be anyone … Continue reading Grief’s Lucidity – August 20, 2025
Talking to You…Little Dots of Snow 12/4/25
Little dots of snow sitting on the upside down patio chairs, stacked against the wall of windows I am staring out, leads me to these thoughts. I go to coffee with a friend (trying to find each other through our busy lives once a month). The one friend I have made in this place we … Continue reading Talking to You…Little Dots of Snow 12/4/25
Talking to You…Little Moments 10/24/25
Quiet, Light, and Stars I sat today, in the quiet The sun was dappled across my body A pillow on top of my lap Rays lighting up tiny particles floating around me Two kids home from school Breakfast and back up to their respective spaces It’s quiet As the particles passed my face at the … Continue reading Talking to You…Little Moments 10/24/25

Losing time, or lost We don’t know each other, but we hugged And it felt like home
Alexithymia – May 1, 2025
Can you see it Essence of atoms given off Particles making us take the next step After step, after step Each drip stained, magnified Foot prints washed over It’s there With all it’s intensity Quietly, shifting

4/25/25 I saw it go I watched my heart walk away I let it go [The tree out back With all the black birds swaying in the branches They held on] It went And with it Little bits of light Did too
Hello! Thank you for all of your support over the past however many years. DoRee Melnic has been a tremendous outlet and support system for me.

Anastomosis – March 20, 2024

Sharing a little bit of love from out there in the big wide world…
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
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

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
~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~
