    Cup of Me

    I am not everyone’s  cup of tea   and I swirl    like smoke     anyway. Bitter. Sweet.  Thick.   Thin. Honey  sticky   on the tongue,Milk  warm   on the lips.

  • SPRING

    Only weather, never the same,
    no shape, no edge, no final form.

    A current moving through the ground,

    A Poem by Curly Grace

    We were diamonds once
    brief
    brilliant
    our bodies catching the sun
    every pulse a shimmer
    every glance a spark

    your devotion flows
    into the unseen, the unheard
    everlasting.
