fun with the youngest
my flower amongst the blooms
that give us this life
parenthood
Whine with That?
eight miles of views
captured between bickering
parenting is hard
Source of Life
day begins and ends
with the shuffle of all days
but with this lake view
Working Class Motherhood
a guilty mother:
the only kind i can be
as a working one.
All it Takes
good whiskey, beer, meat:
nice patio family view–
Happy Father’s Day!
Love Will Live
in this tragic life
whose pain touches all of us
we must find beauty
around the curved path,
falling angel-like from trees,
a blue mountain view,
the eyes of a child,
the joy of family outings–
hope that love will live
Location:S Leyden St,Denver,United States
Just a Touch
summer sky in soft shades of blue,
saying good night to another dream house day,
my oldest baking brownies in the kitchen
(running out for recipe updates)
all tucked behind the shallow breeze
tickling the quaking aspen leaves
and it’s so temporarily beautiful,
this sky, this evening summer vacay moment,
i want to trap it here in this lens,
in this heart,
in this life,
and wrap my arms around
the subtle hint of pink clouds
before they disappear
The Truth Hurts
entrepreneurs
earned more than i did today
selling lemonade
Loan Forgiveness
day started with angst:
with backtalk and attitude
lost in a battle
midday mellowing
came with a surprise measure
of all my hard work
by evening? they won.
their debts forgiven–for friends,
summer, being kids.
Keepsake
they’ve asked to return
every year on the same date
hoping for magic
(it’s found in sunsets,
impossible mountain views
we don’t have at home)
i would give them gold
that rests at mountain bases
if i had god’s touch
i’d throw in rainbows,
the best birth town visit yet,
Colorado love
we could come back here–
try to capture this bright view–
or keep it with us
Always.
