She keeps magic in her pockets
tied to the strings of red woolen mittens
and hidden deep in tiny shells -
polished like sea glass
the soft burr of color closing over her eyes
as she gazes out at the dawn
creeping coral and rose over the garden gate
while the curl of fragrant tea steeps the morning into something ripe.
She is a trickster and spins gold
out of your bad dreams
and secrets she keeps for you
hidden in a garden that only blooms at midnight
where she tells you stories of dragons
and feeds you oranges and chocolate
laid out on lace, and china plates
collected from sandmen and angels
who got caught in the rain and lost their way
coming home from the stars.
She gathers your wishes in her apron
and stores them in a cedar chest -
wood fragrant from smoke and rain
the heady scent of lingering autumn -
worn in the soft hollow over her heart,
knowing their worth is more than kingdoms
or legends invented by princes and seers,
tracing your childhood on their fragile edges.

Hope
So many times we do not see
That all of life is just a memory
Of days gone past both bad and good
And so we dream, as dream we should
But one should always keep in mind
That a memory is a day behind
Live for today with its joy and sorrow
For today is the memory we dream of tomorrow
As long as there are more who give than those who take
Pray there are more who forgive than forsake
See there are more who love than who hate
Then tomorrow is guided and not left to fate
Literature
Tomorrow
Cry not for the flower that once was
Or the way of nature or just because
For you see it is this life we seize
Our aim to be or just to please
The struggle of each day that comes
So hard or simple is the bee that hums
His tune as he works all day
We fight within to find our way
I know it has been said before
That how we live defines our core
Our very being is who we are
As sure that near is just as far
We laugh and cry and often say
That life is better when we pray
For all the others and not for us
To learn to give and share the trust
We need to see and not be blind
Of what is pure and who is kind
To give in moments when

Tempt Me
Tempt me
With thornless roses in subtle hues
and scented enigmatic scenario's chasing
away the blues that are being played in
my mind by a never-ending cascade of emotion
Tempt me
With promise in every darkened shadow
hiding hopes and dreams amongst the
reality of burnt ashes and tormented travesties
Tempt me
With passion that ignites my body to the
point of ultimate orgasmic pleasure setting
alight the flames from deep within my soul
Tempt me
Till I feel with every fibre of my being
the pain of loss, of love, of fantasy and reality
mixed like cinnamon sugar but sweeter to taste
Tempt me
No
