Tears
palms sway softly
breezes whisper words I know have come
from you
dust swirls
sand stings alert eyes
grit mixes with tears
for a pain we cannot fix
and lives we may not save
an African blood moon rises
your heart turns to me
you feel my breath upon dry lips
a caress, a love word
somewhere beyond deserts—beyond droughts
and babies that cry without tears—the soil
is lush
a woman waits
and she is filled
with love
for you

I'm a writer, a poet, a dreamer, and a lover. I live wherever life takes me, currently in Istanbul, Turkey; and I create beautiful images and thoughts and put them on paper. I love words, paint, the lens, and I create from what I see. You never know what I'm going to write on my blog! But you will find 20 published books on Amazon. My latest is a third memoir, DESTINY'S DAUGHTER. Thanks for following me! #LOVE
