why write?

I have to write what I hear in my head, what I dream in my sleep, what my bones ache to express.

My poems tell stories of strength, love, regret, disobedience, loss, hope, redemption, and whatever whispers.

rest lullaby

  



I hold my hand to cross the street

from wakeful mind to peaceful sleep

what dreams will find me as I rest

in blessed slumber

and tranquil death?
