Through the Wormhole

I traveled a thousand miles

To be by your side

In the witching hours

Of cosmic journeying.

I watched you sleep

Cradling a body pillow

Tightly against your chest,

You breathing heavily

Penetrating

The covers,

But you couldn’t see me

Invisibly standing there….

So,

I returned to my side

Of the world

Guided by the light

Of the full moon,

Gliding and sliding

Through dimensions

Searching for my bed

Then awakening

To your smell wrapped Around my hands.

I love you…Millie

This So Far


Four seasons have come and gone
With the breaking
As stumps are left in the distance
Resembling you and me.
It’s the end of winter
And the spring is filling
With rebirth all over.
A part of me knew
This wasn’t us,
But I couldn’t
Accept the changes.
I needed to mend my life,
Search for my sum,
And allow seasons to come naturally.
This much so far is me
Untouched but recreated
Through the passages
Of time here.
You won’t be celebrating me
But I toast to the new
Divine feminine awakened.
You must know this so far,
Even contemplate
The answers to all those questions
We pondered
With long conversations
Throughout heated nights.
I didn’t fit in your world.
This so far is mine
And I will never be back to you
As the woman I was
When I left.

Be My Poem

Let your spirit fill me

With delicate expressions,

Dictating a romantic ballad,

Holding on to adjectives

Then…

Slipping from your tongue

In sweet rhythm

Cascading into my ears

As water folding over us.

Let your hands hold

Verbs and nouns,

Us as pronouns,

Beginning and ending

Tracing each line and space

Of my body

Cautiously placing

Each moment into silhouettes of pauses

And

Shading the imagination with

Tension, intervals and length.

Be my melody,

Reciting a sonnet, haiku, free verse

Until

The final closure,

An exclamation to end all words

With…

a…

deep…

sigh!

I love you…Millie

Tumbling


I have a 1,000’s of poems in several thick binders. For decades I would write one to two poems daily…religiously. When I started this blog, I wrote more poetry than stories. The other day I was able to get into an old computer and found more. This one in particular hit me. My mind tumbled to the past. I had met a man who turned my life upside down and right side up. It was a short love affair that reminded me to love deeper without holding back. That it was okay. That I would be caught and loved in return. And like most intense love affairs, it took its course. Just by the date I knew exactly who it pertained to. Poetry is a music and art photo album for the soul. ❤️

Inside Spirit

We fear succeeding a lot greater than fearing failure.  We have been programmed in the expectation of failure.  When it happens, we immediately tell ourselves, “Well I knew that was going to happen.”  Those words are the driving force into failure. Succeeding requires that we step into the unknown. Inside of you are all the answers. Continue to co-create your reality. You get to manifest the life you desire!

There’s a vastness,

hollowness,

waiting to be discovered,

uncovered through lack of substance,

control or restrictions.

It is in this space

that one’s bulk reaches

the core

of who and what we are

while not feeling the need

to fill it constantly.

I used to wait

for a miracle of another

to create a fullness

that was never meant to be an external

or internal source of dimension.

And, in this spaciousness

the universe lies completely

sheltered by spirit,

engulfed by expansion of cosmic energy.

I am alone, but not of loneliness.

I am empty, but not of vacancy.

I am light, but not over-exposed.

The range of all is infinite

as we can all meet any time

through the everything of life.

Let go of the illusion,

diminish the fear,

and travel through the light of love.

A touch from you opens the portal.

A word ignites our immortality.

A look exchanges the energy to all humanity.

We are here together.  We are always connected.

Be mindful that you,

me, and them are the spheres of divinity

in this dance of life.

I love you,

Millie

I Melt with You

The sound of your voice

carries magical gifts

that chill my nerve endings,

erecting every particle

and I dissolve within seconds

of each syllable released.

 

I shiver,

dancing to a mystery

of what will be

sometime,

somewhere,

somehow,

as you look deep within me.

 

I melt with each thought

of you,

diffusing in your hands

as they

trace,

create,

explore

the corners of my flesh.

 

I dance to your eyes,

as they search for my truth,

my releases and secrets,

waiting for permission

to kiss,

absorb,

extract,

love all of me

as you take nectar

from my spirit.

 

In the end

it is the journey of silence,

smiles,

and gestures

that bring me back

to being infinite

with you…

intertwine in me.

Colors of Us

Love is a privilege given to all

to take

or not.

Your call this morning

yanked me out of sweet sleep.

Your first words,

“I love you.  I miss you”

woke me like a bucket of cold water

splattered

against my warm body…

I stopped you,

halting all of your jabbing

slurring into the morning light.

You needed to be heard

and when you finished

the mumble jumble of puzzled words

I hung up to wash you off my spirit.

I stood in a hot steaming shower,

placed my face against the cold tile

as the water scolded me

and I stared at the smoke rising

realizing the difference between us:

I think in colors, pretty shapes, and music.

You think in darkness, straight lines and equations.

I need you to release the colors I placed

in your heart a while ago.

Let me have my love back.

I can’t breathe without that return.

My colors obviously cannot light

the gloom you continue to carry,

but I will always love you

more than the privilege deserves.

World of Love

There,

beyond the doubt

exists a you

ready to live in freedom.

Stand on the edge,

take a deep breath

and jump.

The unknown will catch you

and Spirit will

provide wings

so you can soar

over all the fear

manifested

without the allowance

of Divinity to move you.

And over there…

beyond the horizon

is the world

of Love

ready to embrace you

forever

without the restrictions:

“I can’t,”

“I don’t,”

“I won’t”….
