Another Lesson

A friend if not a daughter

A tenant or a cottar

The moon in my 11th

A past life in the present 

I can't expect affection 

Nor guidance or protection 

No use seeking redemption 

There's solace in prevention 

True north is my direction

It's just another lesson

Full Moon in Scorpio

Full Moon in Scorpio

Consider all you 'know'

If it's obstructing flow

This year you'll let it go

Still waters they run deep

It's all that's underneath 

Subconsciously you keep

Cycling through repeat

No more, there is no need

Recognize and release

Bring forth your own beliefs

And live authentically 

Picket Fence

A white picket fence

It is my defense 

Not unsightly, but

Achieves what it must

Encloses my castle

From darkness, from hassle 

My forest, my flowers

My self-healing powers

My snowslips, my snail shells

My fireflies, my fairytale 

My Scots pine and thistle 

My chimes, bells, and whistles 

The wood I have whittled 

My harp, cello, fiddle

The music I'm making 

My layer cake baking

My horses, my mares

My staircase of hair

My unicorn legend

3 lifetimes of lessons

My palace, my fortress 

Do you dare disturb this?

Come at me correctly 

Requited, respectfully 

Veil of Forgetfulness

Veil of forgetfulness 

Please help him remember this

Wake Aurora with a kiss

Activate a paradigm shift

To the north our eyes do lift

We begin to move towards it

From a void to utter bliss

Could this be my fulfillment?

Other half to explore with

Queen of Cups with the Hermit

This is my heart's deepest wish

You left me

Orphaning

Your offspring 

I must be

Disgusting?

One half beast

Still your seed

I don't see

Can't believe

Wounded me

I'm reeling

Endlessly 

But proceed

Steadily

By learning 

And teaching

My baby

Achilles 

We're healing

Speaking Spells

I stand at a wishing well

Dreaming up and speaking spells

Sacred pool of water flows

Heart-shaped Persian ivy grows 

Cosmic egg is cracking now

Showing me just where and how

Light and stardust spilling down

Creeping fig upon the ground 

Magic music notes float up

Fill the air with love and luck 

Wind carries my symphony

Signals my soul family

Lover, lion, dragonfly

I become a butterfly

Songstresses, dancers

Lionesses, panthers 

Creative, receptive 

Uplift the collective 

These women, these healers

Such beautiful creatures 

We love you, we thank you

And can do the same too

Mutual Magic

Beautiful days

Infinite ways

To be inspired and appreciate 

Then I create

Later relay

Share with the world what I've learned this day

Lay on the earth

Thank it, converse

Ask for the blessings of ocean and turf

Butterfly wings

Caterpillar kings

My heart is happy and my mind serene

Close my eyes, breathe 

Fall asleep, dream

Mutual magic of Earth and her being

Dear departed amoureux

Praying to the Heavens though

That it would combine them both

Witch doctors assisted with

Joining them in nature's kiss 

Malagasy poetry

Reunited in a tree

Ylang ylang and vanilla bean

Love across the centuries

Inside of Me

Rather than ask the outside

I will open my third eye

Wonder powers activate

Elevate the human race

Intensive super Care Bear stares

Color, light, and rainbow sails

Do better than what was done

Unto me and everyone 

Transmute trauma, don't pass down

Do a 180 around

Healthy fruit and shiny leaves

All from what's inside of me

Reptilian Guy

I see this lizard every day

Calculating, still and gray

Vibrating like Scorpio

Waits until he's safe to show

Striking when the time is right

Bypass drama, fight, and flight

Intake, analyze, size-up

Dare not move and spill his cup

Cool and calm and watching there 

Penetrate with his hard stare

Self-contained reptilian guy

This too is how I get by

Land and Sky

Many birds we love do fly

Suggesting so can you and I

Or in marshes on the ground

Sediment on Puget Sound

Anywhere they are, they thrive

Make the most of land and sky

Fill the air with singing calls

Bathe and play in waterfalls

Penguins mate for life on ice

Happy Feet in black and white

Pigeons carry love letters

Pillows soft with down feathers

Desert racing road runners

Turkey Thanksgiving dinner

Doves accompany man and wife

Storks deliver newborn life

Migrate back when springtime starts

Nature's perfect works of art

Spiderweb of Women

A spiderweb of women and all their assorted men

They are peering at each other to see how he treated them

Where is it that she comes from and what was experienced?

Was she trauma bonding with him - was she able to transcend?

Did she lead him onto higher ground and will he love again?

Or is he dark and bitter with his very heart hardened?

Should she open up her own heart and begin to move toward him?

Or will he draw his sword and stab her at his every whim?

She is wise enough to notice and to their words she will listen

But is guided by emotion and will therfore let him in

Stop Squaring

Neptune, please stop squaring things

My Midheaven and Saturn's rings

It's way more than just annoying 

What am I meant to be doing?!

How can I do things differently?

To open up my energy

'Cause I will do it willingly

To avoid governmenting

Listen to music I love, while

I look up at the sky and smile

Appreciate the ground below

And everything from which has grown

I know that I am one of those

A goddess reaping what she sows

I come from stars and glitter, true

But I'm of Mother Gaia too

So if I hold my vision, soon

I'll be aligned, refined, and tuned

I'ao Valley

Studying the stars to see

Who and what I'm meant to be

Is it enough to just be me?

Here at night in Hawaii

Up high in I'ao Valley

Seeing things I've never seen

Being told to just believe 

Tune into God's frequency

Of love, hope, and faith, and peace

Teaching me ukulele...

(Yes, I say that like a dweeb)

Appreciate you, Wayne Perry

Thank you for this memory
