For my Muse

I am sorry, Muse
I know you're there
Your brilliant light is here somewhere

Fill me up
Cheer me on
Come to me in
words and song

Whisper, scream - I don't care
Just help me trust the power flare

this voice... the flash... the flow... the pulse

Heal me, hold me
Break me, mold me

Bid me practice, forget perfection
Nudge my memory dream direction

Dance, my Muse
and smell the bread
In you, through you, I am fed.

Goddess on the Shore

"Goddess on the Shore"

There is in my mind a woman
Luminescent
Walking the sunset beach
Cheek glow shadows cast upon her breast
Watching pink sky horizon
Greet mirror water
On the edge of daynight
Sand squishing as waves recede
Feet sinking
Connecting with her earth
Tall, alone
Effortless grace
One centered soul
Expansive
Enough
Ready
