Longing, green eyes meet

raw, fresh, across a full moon

Instant attraction.

**********************************************************************************

The joy of my love,

Rose petals strewn in my heart

gift of young, sweet life.              (happy 18th birthday to my daughter, Jillian)

*********************************************************************************

Thunder strikes silver

Bullets scream out blood, guts, hope

Death of trust and life.
