I know when I’m a much older woman, And we’ve been married for quite some time, The word will grow ordinary. But I hope, sometimes I will stop And remember that girlish thrill I felt when For the first time, I called you My husband.

The Circle of Women
Babies watch with wondrous eyes their Sisters. Sisters hold the gentle hands of New Women.
New Women dance to the music of the Mothers. Mothers hold fast the Ancient Leaders.
Ancient Leaders welcome the babies to the circle. The scaling dance, encircling sea and fire.
A lineage of seedlings to overarching grand-mother trees. Radiating golden strength, sewn from fingertip to fingertip.
Rose voices dark as flame and gentle as seafoam. Ancestral gates and bodies made of music and muscle.
We encircle one another, holding ourselves within the profound experience of being women.
My life needs WAY more dance breaks
She fell for a poet. He was a very bad poet. He knew it. She knew it. When he worked over his words, His tongue stuck out as his brows furrowed. He clumsily grasped at words, sewing them together to create a colourful and messy quilt And she would wrap herself whole in it with a grin. He beamed. She fell for a poet.
That's part of the heartbreak.
And a part of the blessing.
a little haiku for my love
The person I wrote this for has since proposed!
We are now engaged
Seaside, You asked, "Marry Me?"
I laughed and cried, "Yes!"

My Mother's Mother
You only knew me as a child.
A different, sticky, distracted, unrealized thing.
But I wish we had known each other as women.
For I think we drank from the same golden cup.
Our bones were formed from the same stars.
The matriarchal blood held in both our hearts.
People tell me I remind them of you.
That I hold you with me in the way I speak
But I have to guess which words are yours.
Why did you leave so soon?
I am sad you were gone too early,
And angry death got to meet you before I did
But sometimes, I am surprised to feel
A line inside me being pulled taut
Something deeper and older than myself
Do you pull that line?
Telling me, that you, too,
Wish we could have known each other as women.
summer is passing too quickly
I'm a cat to a girl in her twenties
I’m the first cat to a girl in her twenties,
I’m cradled, coddled, and kissed.
She’s clawed, cuddled, and captivated
By the black-bellied, velvet baby of the house.
I’m the first cat to a girl in her twenties,
My mother tongue is not my mother’s tongue.
We sing at each other in foreign voices.
She coos my name, sweet Lillies on lips.
I’m the first cat to a girl in her twenties,
We trade in affection and comforts,
In forehead kisses and soft beds,
In the luxury of singular and quiet love.
I’m the first cat to a girl in her twenties.
Her finger reaches across the canvas,
And, unlike Adam, I connect the bridge,
In a religious ritual practiced daily.
I’m the first cat to a girl in her twenties,
The steadfast companion to all her landmarks.
Consistent in her growing life.
Her darling.
One day, she’ll be thirty and I’ll be ten.
She’ll have fat handed babies, and I’ll have arthritis.
But we’ll both always remember that once
I was the first cat to a girl in her twenties.
when the family Dog becomes the domestic god of the home
I feel the demand
I am knitting when I realize I have joined a long legacy of women who have laughed at their cat playing with the yarn.
There is still hope. The birds are still singing!
What’s worse: A meaningless death or a sacrificial one? One has no meaning and the other has too much.
My time feels so singular, And my hopes are a multitude.
Our love exists,
in the sleepy whispers of morning
when you are too tired to think.
You roll over, your head finding my shoulder,
you tuck yourself around me.
You say my name softly,
asking for just ten more minutes
before we have to share ourselves with the world.
