Last night I dreamt that Mean Girls took over as the cast for Oz. Now, you can blame the cold medicine and sickness, but I'm just sayin’, this would be bloody brilliant!

Good morning and happy Friday!

Tucked away
In a hollow deep
A Myrtle grove
Purest pink

Aphrodite kissed
Petals soft
A gift of love
Keys to #locks

On a May day
The 10th they say
Two stumbled upon
In love they did stay

‘Neath falling keys
Hushed they spoke
“I will be with you always,”
Locks now broke
#vss365

Inked lines inhaled
Pour inside me
#Induce deep need

Shake me awake
Dark scarlet screams
Symbol of dreams

Heart rate racing
No remains left
Relief gift me

Eyes fade under
Stars upon us
Unknown love ours

It burns! Good morning! Have a wonderful Thursday, hissing or not! 🖤🖤

If you really knew me
You might walk away
My #saga is not pretty
But I’m here to stay

Some pages are sloppy
Some should be burned
The ones that matter
Are the ones I learned to turn

If you are still here
Maybe you could stay
Though it isn't pretty
Please don't walk away

#Descend shattered steps built as we go,
Crystal beams of light emerge so slow,
World chaotic, suddenly symphonic,
Awaken us, let our bodies flow.

Happy Wednesday, my dudes and dudettes! 🖤🖤

Pinstripes of alabaster
Burgundy bleeds
True hearts do flicker

Silence her! Feed the #greed .

Master! Master!

We call out to him
Unshackle me faster
Let me live and breathe

Gluttonous lips
Trace vacant hips
In shadows unseen

I shall not plead!
#vss365

It’s not the only thing I do for you and you know that.

Probably right! 🖤🖤

Debris
Scattered across
Marbled floors
Hidden inside time
Hunger cries
Loving one

Perished

One loving
Cries Hunger
Time inside hidden
Floors marbled
Across scattered

Palindrome (Mirror Poem)

Happy Tuesday! Today is the day of state testing when I become some exhausted form of hobbit while I actively monitor for 7-hours. Let's hope the children use their dictionaries and skills!

Have a wonderful day and do all the things! 🖤🖤

Do you hear them feasting
On the bones they dragged
From Hell

Tarnished fangs drip, dripping
Scarlet rivers
Pouring down

Save me from this hellish fate
Cast these demons
Far away

'Tis not the demons, darling girl
'Tis the #rats who smell
Your sin
#vss365

Out of dreams we were born
Us was formed
Rain and sun combined

Through every challenge we face
Here we are, to stay
In love with you, I am
Nothing is impossible, hand in hand
Genuine hearts, the most powerful force

Acrostic - “Our Thing”

Run, run, as fast as you can! We can't escape it, better have a plan!

Good morning! Happy Monday! 🖤🖤

Lay back against
The shoreline blue.
Close your eyes,
Feel the #brush
Of the Calla Lily true.

Herons call
To the loon;
Listen well,
Night falls soon.

We shall drift
Through these ponds,
Holding tight
To the great
Beyond.
#vss365

I gave up the search
Long before I even knew
Splendor’s garden slipped
But you found me, my darling
Giving me everything true

My love, be patient
Those words I wish we had shared
In lonely hours
Trying to be one, we failed
Time heals all, now here we are

Red spider lilies
Shielding eyes
No longer wide

Crooked fingers
Touch us
Moaning as we sigh

Catch a silver dollar
From the well
Where Heather stays

Take a golden feather
From the block
Where #chops were made

Sit by me in anguish
Even in death
We must beware
#vss365

I used to feel so out of place
Lighting rooms, seeking a dark space
Painted smiles, empty eyes
Suddenly before me was you
Light and dark, I instantly knew
You saved me, helped me rise

Rime Couee

Sun-kissed nectar
Honey-coated lips
Our love - so #fluid
Your hand I'll hold, never slip

Hyacinths on perches
Dragonflies high
They see us in the shadows
Pull us into light

Whispers in the wind
Tell of wishes that you seek
Fall asleep in moonlight
Cling to me in dreams

Most of my kids are like this - so giving. It seems that the ones who have the least give the most. There's a lesson in there...I learn so much from my students.
