Fields of red poppies
Litter the landscape of my soul
Composed bleeding
Never a mess to be found
Yet the color gives voice to pain
To the wrenching hurt
Of being meticulously cut
A thousand silent times
Never noticed
My face ashen
As pretty poetry takes
My life blood

I created this blog as a way to express myself using my poetry and photography. It is a reflection of who I am and of the things that interest me. I have many muses…perhaps the greatest one being my love of the sea, how I gravitate to anything relating to water, how I feel a pull toward it deep in my bones. At times I will be revisiting content that I have shared on Twitter which has, until now, been the forum I have expressed myself in. That said, the content will change over time as the blog grows and develops. It is my hope that the reader will enjoy the journey.
