An ode to a wandering cat It’s a mystery to me
where he spends his day
stopping in for breakfast
then on his merry way

What Do You Want for Breakfast?

Victoria Polmatier Thu, 01/20/2022 - 17:42
Cup of joe
I'll have sunshine and starlight
Great gusts of wind a-blowin'
A silently falling summer mist
My feet upon cool earth

The Way Forward

Willow in fog
Such vibrant colors -
the spring green of the willow
the clear blue sky
with bits of wispy clouds
the white daytime half-moon

Songs of Remembrance

Grandmother and Grandson
Is it a coincidence?
I don’t think so
I could make a playlist
first your song
then two of his -
songs of remembrance

Rhythm of Life

Sunset
Some days feel as though
I’m lying in a mud-pit
the world is drab and dreary
there’s no getting out
the mud slimes all over

Darkness? That's okay.
Joy? Revel in it.
Uncomfortable? Let it be.
The pain comes in the struggle to be other than we are at this moment.

Hatred or Peace

Peace Rose

If we respond with hate
to their spewing of hatred
we only multiply hatred
in the world

If we react in fear

What is Strength and Power

Picture of Douglas Fir Trees

A giant fir tree
stands strong and fierce
trunk trailing skyward
in a straight line
grounded into earth
limbs flying in the wind
but trunk stands steady
I felt that way once

Step Into the Light

Bridge at sunset

we can build walls
or we can build bridges
we can withhold
or we can surrender
we can step into the light
or we can hide in the darkness
each day carries choice

Ground Into Me

How do I find me?
So much worry
trying to match up
to some invisible idea
of who I should be,
who others want
rather than
just.being.me.
