Woman with a Veil 4
Gwen's velvet green hat, reluctantly black with a veil before her eyes of squares packed like a mathematician's fabrics, back folds of strength. A virtue she doesn't lack. Jess teased out US blues in a southern dialect no soldier or civilian within five war-torn miles would understand, but men throw strings her words pull…

Woman with a Veil 3
The woman with a veil walks Paris bright as if born in the outskirts. Nursing night and day she is given leave from front lights of surgery closings blessed infinite. Such coffee, such treats unavailable in Bellevue, Washington where her stable choices jailed sit at her parents' table, but here her French flows in war-torn…

Poetry from a Northern Soul
I translated some of my poems into English. Enjoy! Thousands, yet thousands Threads of silver Weaving us together Thousands, yet thousands Threads of silver Over glittering seas Thinking of him I have fallen in love with Thinking of him, smiling Thinking of him, crying He is collecting stars Giving them to me I give him…

Woman with a Veil 1
In a splash of rain sunrise calls it quits. Umbrellaless I dodge rain drops befit of retired Olympians then split focus between coffee and the culprit. She wears a veil of pain, anger, and fear sown in mist and knit by her lovely dears in thoughts corroded, the space of years disguised as fashion she drapes ear to ear. She…

Direction of Focus
When I was young, when life was difficult, sometimes I would survive the difficulties by dreaming of a better future. I’d make lists of goals and plans and wishes. My eyes were on tomorrow rather than today. I’d use my imagination to create a better reality than the one before my eyes. This allowed me to stay hopeful and…

Between Wars
His shadow, cornered by paid-per-day light grafted with heat after World War 1 fights, and underwritten in land prone to blight, moves in migratory patterns to night. Over ten years before he signed for war and spit with pride, then swallowed mud the ore of geographical dances uncorked by hands withholding care too late…

My requests in drawing (Pearl Jam)
W.M.A. This song is my favorite, a tribal rhythm, Jeff Ament plays the bass notes in a
loop, , with an incredible groove! The song progresses with the highlights, the voice of
Mr Eddie is inhabited. I make my request in drawing, it's more fun. Thanks Yvan

First Light
The flowers woke up my imagination today that plain land open to plant some flowers and shrubs what colors do I want? what will grow here? and there’s that feeling peeking out from the back of my mind a toddler cautiously looking out is anyone awake yet? or, that tickle of on the top of my skull to remind me it’s there…

Protection
Sometimes when I start new projects that are quite difficult, fear comes up fast like the back of a stopped car on the freeway. Will this be too hard? Can I actually do this? Do I have enough time to do it right? The beginning of a piece like that can be terrifying. To motivate myself to face these feelings, I think about…

Convergence
come together inspiring hope is an immense gift to turn lights on brighten the dark corners for others sometimes towing, heaving, hauling is required but on other days, the best days there’s a spontaneous explosion there’s a new sun in the sky suddenly, the whole village is reborn invigorated, refreshed ready to shine…

Not to be mysterious, just a natural shift of attention I’m needed more here than there but love always to the beautiful bird

What’s on my mind
i sat down to write today and I realized that the current events on the southern border are disturbing my peace of mind. It’s difficult not to think about how upset I am about Trump’s latest violence. They are taking Mexican children away from their families and putting them into institional facilities. Little brown…

The adoption
In an adoption there’s a process to attachment when we rescued these little wild boys (the kittens) they were frightened, cold, hungry somewhat shivering with fear of people thin, bones poking out we fed them gave them a safe home gentle hands, soft voices, space beds, hiding places warm laps, reliable love and food so now…
