A lantern is no longer lit
Near this cell, where I must sit

Darkness plagues my every day
Yet in this narrow space I stay

Golden skies, in this empty place
Soar across, in an endless race

Yet, I cannot see them with my eyes
I see them in my mind and try

To recreate a land once cherished
Where land and trees forever flourished

And flora once did overwhelm
When I was ruler of this realm

Hello, Friends,

As most of you know, I have been caring for my mom the past two weeks.  I get the chance to write when my daughter kicks me up to my office 🙂  Lately, the words aren’t there, as exhaustion has all but taken over the day to day.  I am trying to read as many of you as I can, but I’m finding that a bit overwhelming as well.  I so miss all of you and your beautiful words.  It will be weeks until I am able to come back on a regular basis, but I know you’ll all still be here.

Thank you to everyone who commented and personally messaged me about Mom.  Your support through all things simply amazes me and I love you all for it.  And thank you for continuing to read my somewhat sporadic poems.  This really is a great family ❤

Until then,

❤ Dorinda

jetty-593401_960_720Sunset beckons the tides to roll

Drawing you deeper into your soul

Reaching beyond the calling of day

Taking you farther and farther away

As nighttime descends upon oceans of blue

Covering waters with darkness anew

You slip past the shadows of ebony night

Awaiting the comfort of morning’s first light
