love in colors

under July blue skies
I fell in love with 
golden brown eyes

under silver stars
we shared first kisses
the pale moon watching

as brown leaves fall
our pathways diverge
warm memories fading

another Monday

another Monday
another day staring a long work week
another day dreaming of slumbering 
instead of typing long emails

I sometimes wonder if I went back in time
altering my paths if things would be different
or still lead me to the same door


- Combining two prompts with today's poem - dVerse Quadrille #222: There's no alternative and 2025 April PAD Challenge Day 21

when the enchantment ends

I sometimes think back
to my childhood days
when all seemed easier
and the world still held
enchanting dreams

and then you grow up 
watching the magic fade 
into responsibilities,
difficult life decisions and 
the passage of time that brings 
many hellos and goodbyes

what lies within truth

I have been writing poetry for years
I dye my hair constantly
I sometimes second guess my decisions
I loathe all politics

Covid has dampened my traveling muse
I am always the life of the party
I still have hope in this crazy world
