the stitch
She knew she had to stitch her dress.
She moved it from couch to couch.
Constantly being reminded, "that dress needs mending."
She loved that dress. It was beautiful, shiny, so pretty.
It fit perfectly.
Yet the strap had been ripped.
Still attached yet
hanging with a cloud of knotted threads.
One night, she sat staring at that dress.
Thinking, "I really love that dress."
So she took out her bag of tools,
threaded a tiny delicate needle,
and she began.
She tried to push the broken piece
back into the hole where it was.
But it didn't work.
She tried again.
And again.
She thought, "I must cut it off, fully."
I must have a clean end.
So, she cut.
Then with patience and care, she wiggled and nudged.
Then, like magic,
the strap went into the place where it belonged.
"Yay", she thought.
It looked so nice.
Even better than she imagined.
So she stitched.
One stitch at a time.
From the inside out.
When she finished, she smiled and said,
"It's mended, and it's beautiful!"
the sea
A sailboat must sail...
so...
it made its way to the sea.
color
She opened her eyes from a dream
Everything was black and white
Then she looked in the mirror
And she was in color
my love
my love, my love
only you
can save me from
this place i find
lost sight
of my love
my love, my love
I hear you now
in and from
don't forget
it's me, it said
my love
back of the cupboard
In the back
of the cupboard
Lies a secret I store
Without light or attention, no more
It wakes me at night,
tells me something's not right
Gonna clear out that cupboard, no more
Romeo in Dulwich
Romeo, in Dulwich
Avanti, avanti
Brit rough, all in tumble
M&S, thigh rugby
Gaze pull in, froze slowly
Avanti, avanti
Sea blue whim, wow caught me
Sweet pausing, where hasty
Just a mess, in sideswept
Avanti, avanti
Twist fate, Romeo's breath
In Dulwich, lost sightly
Grace
Laying on the floor
Eyes closed
I found Grace
And she is beautiful
My Lover is like the Sun
My lover is like the sun.
Seeing him makes me smile.
All the while, feeling free,
I can play like a child.
In pink, black or blue,
He loves me just the same.
Lights up my rainbow colors,
Provides in perfect ways.
I crave his touch, his presence,
His penetrating embrace.
He sneaks kisses, gentle or rugged,
Has me red in the face.
Yes, my lover is like the sun,
Each day that goes round.
Caresses all my parts with silence,
My heart and mind are sound.
Without seeing, or feeling,
Or breathing him in,
I know he is still burning, and yearning,
To see me again.
