His clothes are everywhere along with a few mismatched outfits of mine...
The garden is holding onto some weeds and the pool water is cloudy...
If poems are meant to invoke some feeling then I must tell you that I have been hungry, cold and felt unwanted many times. I have known abuse and violence... but have not fallen as a victim of...
If I was Van Gogh I would paint sunflowers... |
I would articulate all my shapes by juxtaposing surfaces of different intensity...
So you could see...
If you and I are branches from the same tree then I must tell you...
Not only do I love you but you are so beautiful...
I wish I could show you.
I wish I could show you...
All of me.
I wish like a blanket I could lay my whole life into the earth and like magic it would sprout, grow and bloom into a field of sunflowers .
I wish I could tell you everything that is within me and what I perceive to be real...
And I continue to dig deep looking for the right words and you continue to reach and my fingers are grasping...
They are holding onto so much hope, dreams and love...
The one that particularly moves me is love...
And if tomorrow never comes let me make sure you know...
I... Love... You...
This weekend is opening night at the theatre...
The divine Ms. M (Maia) opens her last production of the season...
This time she plays the bride of Dracula. Can't wait to show you the pictures of the production on stage.
She is excited of this new role and we know she will be the best bride Count Dracula ever had...
This weekend I will be that one Momma with the very talented girl on stage- while said Momma will virtually swallow all of her tears in the privacy of a dark theatre... because I am that moved every-time she comes in to the stage.
Have a great Memorial Day weekend peeps... Stay Sweet !
Captivating writing with such lovely photos.

is a video clip possible? i'd love to see your beautiful girl in action. Both my teens love dance, but neither have been on stage for any school play. I was. Many times as a child. Reluctant because I was afraid, but once i spoke the first few lines, the audience was forgotten while i became my character.
ReplyDeleteLovely post, your word always touch me. By the way, my bedroom is a mess and i could use some help finding the floor. this is what happens when you share your space with tots
