Sandalwood

sacred, sweet
a fleeting dream
pure heartwood
brushed my lips

center of time
Earthly beings
scent lingers on
numb fingertips

rare ritual
begin to fly
into chasms
of your deep

aromatic quality
one piece of life
the scent is
yours to keep

priceless smell
fever distilled
sandalwood lofts
into my soul

alpha-santalol
heartwood bleeds
fragrant oil
takes a toll

different as the

Iced Memz

I’ll take it stiff
just on the rocks
frozen solid
still on ice

pour me a glass
of shivery dreams
in a steam swept
artic paradise

frost-bound love
glacier of souls
drifting quickly
off to sea

iced memories bleed
droplets of snow
in the complexity
of we

puzzling

fit just right
to break apart
tongues tied
with sultry
breath

fit my body
fit my mind
prefectly
right fast to
the death

touch each
piece not in
waking dreams
but right here
tainted flesh

fitting in
and
fitting out
just lovely
to enmesh

each curve
so sleek
contour unique
a mold around
your lips

marking our
lines a
puzzling map
down to aching
weighted hips

Past Poet Laureate of Santa Fe

… I told her the day I met her that I believe in signs. I had set a future goal, rightly aligned, not long before I met her.

So proud of my cousin Jessica for making such a difference with Tewa Women United for a decade. My cousin is a doula and it was an honor to see women from various backgrounds at this event becoming doulas as well. Jessica is a special woman and it’s wonderful to see a woman with Lujan roots making a difference in our community.

Janelle’s Bouquet

Here is the main arrangement I made for Janelle. The bottom portion is a stand as she wanted to keep her bouquet as a momento. I also made her two table arrangements with purple tipped roses and a matching boutonniere for her husband. Always fun…

comb your mind

tidying up
the fantasy
his hands
know well
her hips

he combs
his mind slow
step by step
as her sweetest
honey drips

smoothing out
the fantasy
his mouth
has savored
flesh

he combs
his mind slow
inch by inch
as this scene
he will refresh

untangle oceans

the strand
salted and
tangled up
floats lightly
on their sea

his lips
they trace her
mermaid spine
on the waves
of he and she

magical
riptide of souls
his fingers
probing her
for cures

moments
she keeps
so sparkly blue
intricate
his lures

there’s nothing
more and nothing
less than his
need to touch
her skin

untangle oceans
swimming deep
to see
just where
they spin

Crux

…..
breathe slow
each breath
take in
the crux
with
captivating
need

aiming for
cores
pull fast
hard bow
and gift
seductive
seed

breathe slow
each breath
just taste
the crux
to satiate
your need

Ode to Sky♡

Let your hues
fall over me and
saturate my skin

Sipping the stars
before sunrise,
must surely be
a sin

Let your light
take all my breath
and silence
everything

Tasting your rain,
in deep twilight,
to make the
moonlight sing

Oh my Sky…
you move me so,
offer mysteries
and love

Send off my soul,
like heavenly,
straight to the
clouds above
