Sometimes home is a person.
Pausing
Pause
Feeling the ground,
Slow and low,
Been blowing like
Dandelion seeds,
Floating like poppy dreams,
Looking for a place to plant
And grow and grow and grow
Upwards so high,
The land spins before your eyes.

Time Travel
I time traveled.
Visited all those places I dreamt of,
Indulged in the things I’ve longed for,
And returned to the exact moment I am supposed to be.
Plant Girl in the City
Plant Girl
Plant Girl in the city loved to take walks,
She loved to look into open windows and write stories about the people she sees.
She loved to walk into coffee shops and wait for a warm pour over while observing the plants.
She loves to bring home new plants and watch them grow new leaves,
Water them,
Clean then,
And play music for them.
The city enchanted her.
But she left and came back to her sea.
She loved the salt in her hair and the evening breezes.
It helped her thoughts to slow down.
Plant Girl is happy as long as she is free.

Lotus
Lotus
From the mud
We all rise to blossom,
Opening petal by petal
Reaching for light.
Raising our arms,
Reaching for stars,
Radiating love,
Reaching for sun rays,
Elevating
Reaching for one.
Fermata
In that sweet space between the inhalation and exhalation,
If I can hold that moment
Still,
Pause it with eyes wide open
And sit in it without decision
Nor action,
There in lies the balance between
Truth and distraction.
There in lies the answers to my universe.

Naked
In my heart,
I picture being able to stand
Completely naked
In front of the world
And that would not illicit
An invitation to anyone
To abuse me.
It would be my God given right
To feel at peace
Completely safe
Being bare
In open expression.
That’s my heart.
But my mind,
A little more street wise,
Knows,
I could wear a sign that says
“Don’t touch me,
(In stark big bold black letters)
It is my power to give and refuse.”
I can scream it through a mega phone
And still there will be someone
Justifying why he feels it’s his
Need
Want
Right
And
I cannot be free to show
Sensuality
Or sexuality
Without asking for IT!
Well my mind and my heart agree
And they say,
“Fuck you!”
To you who try to steal power.
Transparent
Transparent
I flipped and my nips slipped
In front of the old man with a surfboard and shaggy white hair.
He noticed that I noticed that he noticed.
We smiled,
And went on with our day.

Uncaged
Try to squeeze me in a box
And make me square,
But beware
When you try to pet me,
I might bite.
But set me free,
You’ll feel it too,
All that light and love,
Uncontainable anyway,
Will flow through you.
