Blooms of Spring
Claude Monet, Wisteria
wisteria vines
cling the trellis
and me, the hope of spring

When You're Young You Don't Care About Appearances
dandelions are weeds they say
but to me they
are summer
and a fluffy snowflake
mixed-breed mutt who made a beeline for me
when i lay out on the kentucky bluegrass
of home
needing love

Easter Poem
of all the blueprints
and maps,
locations marked with a jagged cross,
i like the one where we intersected best

I celebrate Easter and if you do too, I hope you have a happy one!

To Thine Own
Public domain image
Like a rebel’s note
come Sunday
I chanted my mal arranged vow,
as expected of a good girl like me.
But I had to sing true
in my Salishan earthed heart, vesicles bursting,
knowing it would thrive again
if for now, manacled, 3 quarters dead,
to some other maid’s dream.
