Full Moon Rising
“There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.” ~ Leonard Cohen
Halloween frightens my inner child
who is afraid of masked men,
being alone in the dark,
daggers to the heart,
a body aging too soon,
eternal suffering...
but the hollow night
gives way to a full moon rising

After the Pandemic
After the pandemic,
I hope we remove our masks,
find more reasons to smile,

while consequences growl,
like a tornado.

make peace with your pain,
set your spirit free...
to love,
unconditionally.

drug of choice,
calming rain,
rays of sunshine.
an antidote
to suffering,
waltzing words
on lonely nights,
my lost lover
whispering
in my ear,
release,
of fear,
wind beneath
birds in flight,
illuminating
light,
immortality...
