Consolation
Those chatterers: friends of Job’s who offer cheap explanations, justifications to deep grief. Trite phrases, relief on their faces, you not them: we all get used to it. While God’s silence echoes over a chasm of outrage, His pierced hands fastened as mine to the juncture of destiny and agonizing time.
Night Pebbles
Those we are suspended from time’s web who leap with gangling limbs from point to point. We lose the strand or leave a juncture behind, strewing petitions like smooth white pebbles, still shining under the nightly moon which keeps vigil in our exhausted sleep. Urgency subsides on the unravelling of a position, hope flags; forgotten pleas are carried ahead. Miracles meet us, a room prepared...
Fogged Bay
Lines of colored tide, forest black reflection and cream strokes sweeping deep tree hues under the shallow mist. The outlines of light and shadows, horizontals and verticals of liquid and vegetation, as just separated a moment past in the ancient birth from chaos.

Retro Pink
Retro Pink, originally uploaded by *clairity*.I may catch heck for this, since my aunt is one of my most faithful Flickr visitors. Isn’t she gorgeous? I can’t take credit for this picture which was taken by someone in 1957, the year I was born.
Oblivion
She remembered to hold her tongue out like a saucer for her Visitor for a bright instant, consumed Him with pain glowing over her face and as quickly forgot. No better could she recall the man on his knees beside her at her hospital bed; he washed and fed her, urged her to drink more water, changed her diaper. Their pastor knew them. In their previous, that was, conscious marriage, she once had a...

June
Twitch of temperamental June, batting the leaves, restless light flitting through clouds, sky wavering in fits of dark and light, mud puddles splashed to the curbs. Dousing flower clusters, the wind wantonly shakes them to their petal teeth.

Empty Places, Poem
The places stored with emptiness which billow for wanting. Thirsty white clouds, vaulted tree trunks, arching plant stems, expanses of fallow fields. Pebble-lined river beds elongated for spring swelling rain. Cold troughs of space wooing new stars. My porous skin soaking water in, a dilating heart, lungs rising with the soul’s soft sigh.

Catch!
I never expected to witness the birth of my grandson since I hadn’t been invited before. And during labor I was sent home once before the epidural and a second time toward the end of labor. It was all good because the laboring woman has all the privileges, and I only wanted my husband present during my births. I wrote a line in my journal before going to bed: “Parenting as a role is...
