I've been writing poetry from the age of 12. It has, and always will be my outlet, my voice. Join me on my journey . . . I can write about almost anything. :) ~ Life doesn't come with a shiny new book; no users manual of answers to find with one look. Life comes with doors that open and shut; and paths laid before us to be followed or passed up. There's things we can learn and things we may teach; hearts that may find us and souls we may reach. Guaranteed on this journey are teacups of tears; and pains that might hurt us may age us by years. But the beauty of life, love, laughter and giving; come from serving hugs on a platter each and every day we're living. ~

"Right Now Means Everything"



This moment,
this time,
this place.

An open heart . . .
with a troubled look upon your face.

A dream,
a wish . . .
for something more.

Yet settling,
for a little less . . .
keeping open that door.

Confusion,
some chaos . . .
and comfort too.

It is what it is.

A poke here and there,
special moments so few.

Touching hearts,
reaching out . . .
sharing love.

Love that hurts to feel,
yet hurts to stifle too.

You lift it up to him above.

Is it enough?
Is it really?

You both want it to be.

You inhale their love
and exhale yours.

Just breathe baby.

Not the beginning . . .
or the end.

Just today maybe.

Right now means everything.

Nothing more or less.
Just this.

It is what it is.
