Nor Aught nor Nought existed; yon bright sky
Was not, nor heaven's broad roof outstretched above.
What covered all? what sheltered? what concealed?
Was it the water's fathomless abyss?
There was not death -- yet there was nought immortal,
There was no confine betwixt day and night;
The only One breathed breathless by itself,
Other than It there nothing since has been.
Darkness there was, and all at first was veiled
In gloom profound -- an ocean without light --
The germ that still lay covered in the husk
Burst forth, one nature, from the fervent heat.
Did I see you?
The red summmer blaze,
falling on fall...
to see the tail spin with years?
Fore gotten not too long,
a solomonster forgotten ere too Kemp?
Follow the ring is hollow,
nor for my quarrel...
a beat gone ranger,
why do the yin's ears cry?

A moment of growth
a moment of learning,
dealing with emotions,
been apart of something larger,
where it leads no one knows,
only the journey still goes,
then one day it will end,
when that is,
you will have to wait and see.
Hello again my feline friend. Want me to scratch you there?
You lucky cat.
You warm my lap which you magically appeared on.
How DO you do that?
I gaze down at you and you up to me with love in your eyes like that of no other. Truly you are a piece of my heart.
Big baby blues peeking over the edge..
so intense..
so serious..
Something's got your interest. You hunter of things... I think it is a string.
It can be so intriguing to you as it slips quietly over the cushion of the sofa and disappears behind.
You want to try once more?
Oh My! .... first go get that spider on the floor!
What time is it?
I know, as you look up at me once again to let me know your belly is rumbling so.
Let's see, chicken?
No?
Liver?
Not tonight huh?
Well we also have turkey and giblets. Odd, it sounds good even to me.
Here you go... now eat slow.
Bath time I see. First your whiskers. Long luxurious laps of the tongue as you lick your paw and wash your face. Get those ears and that belly. Soft sated purrs fill the air after your delicious supper while you curl up on the rug before the fire.
Time for bed, furry face. Tomorrow our day will begin again of chasing butterflies and birds through the window pane.
Finding that splendid spot of sunshine on the kitchen floor.
I nod off knowing you will be there at the foot of my bed as you always are, resting quietly.
Sleep well my sweet kitty.
I love you.
Alone in this empty room.
No one to share the pain.
Time won't heal all things
The ache remains the same.
A wish that comes too late
A dream that won't come true.
A desire to have his love
But pride just ran it through.
When you reach his feet and he opens that book
Remembering the pure honesty you selfishly took
Decide then and there who it is you deceived
His choice will be the judgment you shall receive.
Shut up this silence,
I can only hear the scream of the memories I tortured in this non-existent dream.
Shut up this silence
You cannot hurt me now
Yet the agony of loneliness will finally make me bow.
Open up your soul
To the Maker of us
He will give you salvation
In this you must trust
So as I lay my head and you move into your grave
My heart will be forgiving of the mistakes that you have made.
See you when I get there
whenever that may be.
My timely friend of existence
Your debt to me is free.
Crystal drops of clarity falling from the skies
Like the tiny silver lustrations rolling from my eyes.
Cleansing my soul of anguish, dwelling in my past.
Needing their translucent calming but knowing it won't last.
The luminescent Sun will beam upon us soon
Then shimmering incandescence will shine down from the Moon
Parting all the dreariness for elation to beam through
A glistening revelation as Goddess blesses us with truth.
