My Brave Warrior Woman......For Kelly

I so admire
your tenacity,
ability to forge
ahead despite
the obstacle.

One year ago,
mired in chaos,
you struck out.
Marched ahead,
fearless toward
a dream, fashioned
for yourself and
the little ones.
I love to see
You dancing.

Aberration

At Point Reyes today, I watched

snow fall to the gray green sea,
,
whitecaps swept the cragged outcroppings.

Two boys in striped caps ran along the

sandy shore, laughing, heads back,

tongues out, to catch the odd windfall.

A black dog with curly ears loped ahead,

barked, flushed a flock of sandpipers

into the strange thick sky.
