Treasure Hunt

Reminding myself
To relish
In the moments that
Make me happy
Pause
Breathe
Savor
Don’t reflect
Or foresee
Just be
In that moment
Fully aware &
Unabashedly
Fucking
Free!

Home

When you become
Beyond depleted
Make Cuban Style
Black beans and rice
Because they remind you
Of Lisa
Of Florida
Of home
Dig in the dirt
Surrounding your garden
With railroad treasures
And wait patiently
For it to bloom
Plant Marigolds
Bright as sunlight
In honor of your
First child
Born in October
Remembering
How tiny he was
Nestled
In your arms
As Richie Havens’
Voice swept
Through the theatre
With salvation and purpose
You wept at
“Here Comes the Sun”
And baptized him
With your tears
Remember
How music heals
And how you will
Always
Find your way home
No matter
How lost you become.

May Moon

The evening
Settles in
Soft and lovely
Sipping scotch
Catching the
Moon
On the tip of
My toe
Guarded above
By constellations
Ursa Major
Virgo
&  Leo
Hypnotized
By the dancing
Smoke of sage
And laughing
Whilst losing
Every game
Of dominoes
That we play.
