confectionary
stretches across care and space;
invitational,
promising new acquaintance
and some special drawing rights

Our Wonder
Infiltrating us
The night sang of our wonder
As breath turned to ice
And ice turned to winter hope
And hope to passion, in turn…
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 1
in molten fury,
the earth strikes its tormentors,
leaving few remains
while those who wear their lordship
seek solace in their brand names

To share is human:
Overlooking
Out on the terrace,
Overlooking the green valley,
We drank in silence.
But, then, overlooking things
Was our strongest shared feature
To share is human:
from the threshing floor – 8
she felt the empty
promise of the long evening
burning like sulfur
drifting into the dolor
of other’s priorities
To share is human:
Cautious Approach
be slow and gentle,
leaving some room for hearing
and feeling your way —
where we go is half the tale,
how we get there matters, too
