I open my email and what do I see?
Nothing from the Nudelman house,
Are they spurning me?
Day after day, night after night...
Did I say something wrong??

It looked like cowardice to some who carried signs marching 'came out' to families, friends and employers proud and you must know it.
In retrospect I was wrong thinking their acts were only their own . . .

The mysteries of the stars are kept
In files of immense singularity,
Just as one thought of you and me
Would fill up all the spaces of my mind
Am I a mystery to you?
You are a must to me!
How may we . . .

Sweater
Cables defense
From neckline to waistline
A lamb's wool protection for you
Warm on that high granite outcrop, laughing,
Suddenly serious, watching
Condors lift from aeries
You clutch . . .

He bestow to me a child in part,
I wholly gave my fairest heart
Yearning of my soul, please don't whither now,
Unborn child a gift. . . .

Her golden kissed hair holds her ears at ransom,
Rhythmic breaths rappel against my cheekbone,
The pulsing landscape of her line,
Ebing and flowing like ocean's tide,
My fingertips . . .

Today she put her hand on my shoulder
My mother
Who though agnostic
hated how Hazel was shunned at work
and ridiculed.
Black and Pentecostal.
Two strikes too many against her
in a . . .

If you like the thoughts of friends
raining into your life
washing away your dullness and making you aware
learn Belle Waring

Waiting by you,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.
Supporting you up,
When you are not strong,
Helping you find what it is you seek.
Catching your tears,
holding your cry.
Pulling you through . . .

Sitting by a crackling fire
parked so close
flames nip at our feet
Our eyes meet
dabs of sweat emerge
Heats of passion overtake the fire
warming of our hearts ensue
Collision of our souls
sparks . . .

The wind blows my dreams
To all corners of my mind
Floating free
Tormenting me
Holding me back from all that could be
You're there
Calling to me . . .

If it's beauty that we're after
It's in the love and laughter
Of playing children
Flowers, pets
In hugs and smiles
The sun that sets
All free and widespread
Heaven bound
In parks and . . .

I Had A Thought
I had a thought
But now gone
A good one too
Vanished! Like never known
Power of thought
Mix in stress
A dash of confusion
Where goes your success?
Isolated . . .

It's clear here
underneath star-lit skies
No moon, no you
Just myself, alone
Funny isn't it
what happens between us
in the space only lovers know . . .

Natural Bluster
Gales, fitful wind spits,
Billows of icy air howl,
Flail tormented trees.

I am who I am
I have always been who I am
I always knew
You
I dont
Know who you are
I know you from afar, yet
Yet however close, how so close
My heart weeps
Love shakes my heart
Loss
Fear
Hunger
My heart . . .
