If I could come back to life as an animal, I would be a
Caterpillar - with the awesome surprise of beautiful wings when I become a butterfly.

If I could come back to life as a plant, I would be a
One of the african violets my Gran had in her kitchen window - but only if I could go back in time and be on HER window - she loved those violets madly.

If I could have lunch with any historical or current person, it would be

two pink lines RE: Expectation as Salvation No one can save us,
least of all a baby.
As parent or child,
sibling, lover or friend
we are all one, alone.

Love's Tale eat for 2 This baby
still the size of a bean
makes demands of my body
often obscene.
My reward will be
sweet baby's breath
from rosebud lips
and a perfect up-turned nose
on my baby's face.
only 7 months left to wait.

Love's Tale RE: My love is a mathematician Together we count the months,
and the days, now,
As I eat for two,
Planning for my third
and our fourth, together,
baby to join our family of five.

Love's Tale My love is a mathematician My love counts everything:
the lines in a room,
the colors in the iris of my eyes.
I count his breaths as he falls asleep
beside me in our bed, warm
and well-loved.

first kiss Hands, lips, breath, skin. his hand on my thigh,
i lean into his neck,
my breath on his skin,
his face turns to mine,
quivering lips, ragged breaths
his hands tremble over
the buttons of my blouse.

on the shelf in the closet
Making love was too good
to interrupt it.

Little Lessons katepoet RE: Immunizations Tough decisions for moms and dads
so many fears of future tears,
medicine as exact science is a fallacy,
the best decisions leave us breathless.

Will It! katepoet RE: RE: Autumn She waits for him, her life in stasis lingering,
her house is too still without him, no home
until his voice resounds from room to room,
his countenance sparks rapture in her heart,
the rhythm of his breath conquers her onlyness.
