Magnetic Poetry Saturday – 31 December 2016

It’s been a long disturbing year. Wish I could imagine 2017 being better, but 2016’s downward spiral seems to be gaining momentum.  Hoping for the best…remembering to breathe and wishing you peace and love to sustain you for the next chapter. 

i do not have the heart or desire
to celebrate this long night by drinking
warm champagne and kissing the lips
of fools who dance away the end of time
it will not make things any less broken
i’ll do good if i can remember to breathe

Joy Cometh…


true joy can be known
if we are willing to pay
passage through darkness

Where Love Dwells – Magnetic Poetry Saturday – 24 December 2016

we search this star-filled
sacred night listening for
angel song, hoping for
the god-child hero with
his promise of peace and
love, but remember, his love
is always in our hearts

May you feel the love this holiday weekend! ❤ Peace and joy to you!

A magnetic poem using the “Love Kit” for Elusive Tropes Magnetic Poetry Saturday Challenge.


Fool Me Once … A Three Line Tale

Dust it with sugar
Serve it up with festive flair
It’s still a fruitcake!
