Unstoppable

Unstoppable

The truck runneth over me

Unstoppable

Yes

Like a phoenix

I shall return

Affirmative

I guess

I question

I know

What lies ahead is

Yet a hard climb

Baby steps

One by one

With each rock I conquer

With each blade of grass

I pass

The heart broken once

The heart broken twice

The heart broken thrice

Burnt bridges surmount

Extend the olive branch

The bird returns

To accept new challenges

Pretend I’m whole

To the day

I am whole

Unstoppable I am

Mother/Cat Love Poem

My mother thinks I'm a cat lady
That I love cats
Indiana Ashley Puck I have loved
Mijo is my current lover boy
Mother's love is best

Things That Make Me Happy

Yogurt from Kevin
Talking to my daughters
BSWC (B Street Writers Collective)
Having my own space
Having enough money to pay my bills
Going to church
Getting published
Publishing
Getting paid
Clean clothes
Flowers
Arnold Palmers
My cat
Quilts- anything
            making buying quilt shows
            gifts to me and from me
Buying fabric for quilts
My silly TV shows
Reading my poetry
Planning Readings

No Applause

It starts with 
Phantom X
no applause
All the kinsmen clad in tartan plaid
no applause
building a wall from here to nowhere
no applause
Climbing up the down staircase
no applause 
Copper hair or magenta instead of blonde
no applause
My heart bleeds beads of glistening salt water tears
no applause
The broken clock is right two times a day
no applause
not quite making the grade
no applause
Everything I need to know I learned in kindergarten 
no applause
It always don't work out the way you want it to
no applause 
                               Am I worthy

Poem #1

Quilts 
      make
