Wisteria

 Wrapped in wisteria

Wounded by dreams

There are so many

Moments that I wish 

Could be unseen

These spring

Fevered dreams

That keep me 

Awake at night and

Anxiety filled days

That constantly ask

Am I doing

This right?

When the voice

Of reason 

Left 

Long ago

And your 

Aching

For something 

But

What it is

You don’t know.

Flowering Hope

 My ground is covered

With sweet gum balls

My bare feet hate stepping on them and


I know my neighbors wish they were gone


However 


The Goldfinches


Carolina chickadees and


Carolina wrens


Thank me with song


The sun is returning more each day


Chasing the darkness and my blues away


I run to bask in the rays of light


Screaming 


As each gum ball pierces my skin 


Smiling 


As I stumble upon my daffodils 


The harbingers of spring


Drenched and bent like 


Horns


In all their golden glory.
