the night split open:
wind blew terror through the trees,
chilling our spirits.
we sang then of better times,
and dared the storm to join in

ephemera 6
we bathed in silence
underneath the peacock tree,
sitting in wonder
at the world and its colors,
and how we’d come to be there

To share is human:
ephemera 5
she longs for shelter
to blend in and not stand out
a garden flower
safe in a community
of shared feeling and purpose

To share is human:
ephemera 4
In hidden symbols,
Formalized and stylized,
She speaks her stories.
Therein lies love and sorrow,
And ways of reaching the dawn

butterfirefly –
perishing all too early,
but leaving traces —
short life of many colors,
spent hot, and burned through quickly

To share is human:
ephemera 2
in gentle stirring,
bending towards the sunlight,
sisters of mercy
wait for the proper moment
to reveal their true colors

To share is human:
ephemera 1
in molten fury,
the earth strikes its tormentors,
leaving few remains
while those who wear their lordship
seek solace in their brand names
