Below are two poems I recently wrote. I have not been to an open mic in a couple months... plan to head back starting december....'til then, enjoy

Rejuvenation





My body folds as I dive into an ocean unknown


Luminous light reflected off multitudes of rocks and grains of sand


Bodies submerged with my own
Held afloat by the tickle of salt that consumes the oceans body


Below me, new horizons


My stare releases as I glide my body up for air
A fortitude of wonder and amaze


Swish swish swish


How sweet the sound of healing


Flying in deep Bimini blue
Ripples like clouds above


Inhale ahhh
Exhale mmmm

sanctuary

Sanctuary





I was born in my mothers womb.
A place of warmth,
where I surrendered my innocence unknowingly when I left her body.


Now, shedding tears, into a calm open Bimini crest
of white sea foam and undulating waves crashing at my feet,
I once again return my innocence to the hemisphere.


Bimini Blue,
come wash my fears away with you.
Whisper that sweet song
in whistles that you have sung to me as we perused over the beating pulses,
saying,


‘I’ll take care of you.’


The song I now sing to myself, in deep exhales
that reach all seven chakras.


‘I’ll never let you down.’


‘I am here for you.’


Rich violet set atop the rich smooth painted sunset
Put my fears to rest with the troubles of the past.
Clouds of white luminous above my head
swirling in between puffs of gray.
My aura so high it has moon kissed heaven.


My Bimini good-bye,
A rainbow, captured in the memories of my sisters
A tranquil pod, unforgotten in the oceans womb;
Sealed by life’s ah-ha moments
Shared in the itch for survival and the stains embedded
like the change of our sundrenched skin as we say,


Yes!


One of thirst quenching shouts


Yes!


I love my mama’s womb of praise.
Thank you Mother Earth for your direction
and our Blessed Father for this instance of release,
even if it is just for a short lived cry
