Poetry written for the home -

deep amid a passion of trees

complete, like orchids

it is engagement and continuing

circles of the home walk to a beginning 

light in the doorway echoes later days

by ways of the glass 

we have means of holding the view

a world of bird symphonies remains

inside, in the watch of lamps

the home reveals a roam of open floors

in here beside us, our essence and stare

like pastries or lilacs, spring and sweet

here you know you are held

hope into here

a hand that had home written on its fingers

a walking sun fills here

the rounded wooden door holds the wreath

announcing the season with bow and leaf

you have water stories and wish

let the birds and boards guide your way

being here is laying back in star light

let angles ease curves 

consume rest, take nest

you have until you take a place

put a foot in dirt, eye in sky

windows gather

and arms beyond

a constant rose gem wanting to hold you
