Melt in yellow sunlight,
Window sill tattoo.

Cool mist, morning.
Mountain river licks woes,
Fishing is peace.
…
Imbued with hatred and malice,
evil thoughts swirl within,
their bony bowl.
…
A hungry gray tornado,
whines and surges behind hungry eyes.
words become wind,
that can kill.
Such a meaningless,
blight.
…
Love, for humanity,
is a warm yellow light,
that glows behind,
caring eyes.
A lighthouse beacon,
cuts through,
the cold dark ocean spray.
Such a valuable
light!
…
Encouragement crafted
for the simple and only sake
of someone else…
is like the first warmth,
of that yellow spring sun,
that chases away
the cold dark blue,
winter of discouragement.
Such a welcomed
delight.

Soft desk chair,
squeaks become, so silent,
sentence is born.
…
If a symptom of love, is absorbing the hurt and pain of others and caring about it, then I truly hope to be a terminal case.

I am the summation of many,
A mother.
A father.
People I have met,
learned from, heard from,
hurt, by some.
Age grows in my bones, like a swelling river,
under the rain of time…
each drop falling, every moment,
captured, experienced, held…
in the summation of me.

The project, is massive.
Not a time, to be passive.
Hours upon hour,
Skill set, gains power.
Animation, like writing,
work, rework, destroy, build,
constant fighting,
until, ultimate perfection is
fulfilled!
