hummingbirds return to gather sweet nips of nectar
bare wintered tree limbs are greening soon the leaves will pop
ever faithful dawn rising sun she quells the dark night
it is possible anything if you can dream it
i have all i need it’s enough to love and be loved

A ReVerse Poem
death comes a-calling letting go to ride the wind, to fall to pieces, on bursts of breath Shadow follows close, a breath away we don’t want to be late (to) day’s fiery dénouement we’ll tip whistling kettle to cup, act like everything’s okay… curse the Muse, blow out the candles one by one think i’m gonna go unplug the moments after the rain because ignorance is bliss after all these years life cycles on, don’t look back, but if you do, (there’s) a cricket crooning loudly this is what growing up feels like spring on the cusp. i don’t want your opinion left in the wake of a visit from death

A ReVerse poem (a practice I started many years ago) is a summary poem with a single line lifted from each entry of a collection of work over a particular timeframe and re-penned in chronological order as a new poem. Unlike a collaborative poem, the ReVerse features the words of one writer, providing a glimpse into their thoughts over time.
take care not to fill that cold space too soon left in the wake of a visit from death surrender to wafts of scent left behind departing remnants of life in a room savor the sweetness with each inhaled breath as memories of life shared fill your mind the world can spin on without you today turn off your phone, brew some tea, get some rest focus on you right now, grieving takes time for some days, months, more; there is no right way no reason or rhyme

Na/GloPoWriMo2022 - Day 16 Prompt: Write a Curtal Sonnet (see the description below). Since i am deep in the thick of it these days, taking full advantage of the Melancholy Muse who lurks in from the shadows to show her face in times like these.
The curtal sonnet consists of 10 lines written in iambic pentameter and a final line consisting of a single spondee (or foot consisting of two long or stressed syllables). Here's the rhyme scheme:
Line 1: a Line 2: b Line 3: c Line 4: a Line 5: b Line 6: c Line 7: d Line 8: b Line 9: c Line 10: d Line 11: c
i’m sorry i asked i don’t want your opinion it’s not worth two cents

Full Moon in April over Bramlett Mountain ~kat 2022
Started my day waking up to this beautiful sky, tree tops, a hint of green, popping with buds, spring on the cusp. I fully intended to write a fancy poem about it…
Morning in the Blue Hills ~kat 2022
…and then events of the day took over…and we had to say goodbye to another beloved pet, our Winston…Winnie Pooh …best boy ever. 8 years is not long enough…even in dog years. 😢 Rest in peace buddy. Go find Maxwell and Casey-cat who crossed the rainbow bridge earlier this year. They’ll show you the ropes. 🥰
