Chinook

Blowing gentle warmth
Comforting, welcome reprieve
From frosty winter

Storm

Swirling, tumbling clouds.
Rain pours down as wind bellows.
Thunder booms. Lights out.

Alternatives

Yes. No. Maybe so.
Many choices to be made
and paths to follow.

Pressure

I feel it building...
If I'm not careful I'll crack
Breathe and take it slow

Fresh

Starting fresh (again)
in a new house and new town.
Some things never change.


Morning dew glistens
Reminding me: a new day
a fresh beginning.

Middle

Between here and there
Saying goodbye and hello
Can't wait to get through

Boredom

Summer vacation
Children are bored but not Mom
Way too much to do

Confidence


Doing what you love
builds confidence and self worth
It's good for the soul

Postcard

Beautiful snapshots
and scribbled impressions - but
only the best parts


To: my dearest love
Wish you were here.  I miss you.
From: your darling one

Freestyle

Chaos, fear, anger
too many troubles to count
overwhelming stress

Her heart fluttered as
he looked into her eyes and
whispered "I love you"

Reality sucks
I'd rather be daydreaming
thinking pleasant thoughts

Universal

Sometimes being there
is the best thing you can do
to show that you care.

Drift

drifting: dark, hopeless
waiting, immobile, afraid
will it ever end?

Fire

Red embers beneath
flames of blue and gold. White hot.
Like my love for you.

Landscape

Rocky mountain peaks,
ocean waves, evergreen trees:
landscape of my youth.

Spring

beautiful colours
lush, vibrant vitality
fresh new beginnings



Beltane fires burn and
girls with flower garlands dance
in celebration

Conversation

Pig Latin, Morse Code
Secret Language, a la Mode
Text, Chat, Skype.  Just talk.

Annoyance


brother and sister
bugging, pestering, teasing
Annoyance or Love?

Happiness

Elusive, fleeting
Desired above all else
yet so hard to keep

Battle

G-3... Hit!  G-4...
Hey! You sank my battleship!
I still love that game.

Excitement

Look to the future
Endless possibilities
Excitement - and fear
