despair on my tender mood-
sunshine hides from me.

Evening sun through the
window lights up room, my life-
sleepy birds twitter.

Lone star looks down as
dusk falls over the town- hints
of sunset linger.

sunset for years, warm lagoon
waters- hot and cool.

Stressed with packing and
future, I think back to this-
you’re my warm sunshine.

of Fakarava- sea, sand,

everywhere- spring spills forth its
bountiful magic.

Warming air scented
with sweet baby powder musk-
blooming mock orange.

Winter’s shy seedlings
become spring’s bounty- homegrown
kale greens up our lives.

Sooner or later,
we all fall down- delicate
petals in wet grass.

In the spring, when love
birds twitter, my heart bleeds- you
put it in bouquets.

spring is in the sweet air- it’s
time to spread our wings.

Blue like the sea, blue
like spring flowers- blue like my
heart that forgets not.

Morning tea to start
the day- jolt of bergamot
to pry open eyes.

Your kicks startle me,
reminder of miracle
of life- pregnancy.

one more memory fading-
vacation is done.

close my eyes, I’m here again-
Huahine bliss.

Profound quiet fills

the house, I miss you each day-

my truest friend gone.
