Peach Dreams

peach dreams

peach dreams

If I didn’t have any experience

I wouldn’t know that

a small, hard, greenish fruit

will eventually make my hands sticky

gush on my face

melt in my mouth

cause the children to ask

what’s baking in the oven,

or that I would be researching recipes

for peach preserves to spread

on some fresh warm bread

in the dead of winter.

Hanging by a Thread

May 18th, 2010 by marthacinadermims · 2 Comments

Category: the white spider

There’s a thread

that goes back

to the start,

the key to

everything

that unfolds

in reverse.

But there’s no

reason to

go back there

only know

that there’s a

karma trail

all your own

another

one we share

and one for

each contact

you ever made

all woven

in a web.

The white spider

spins but not

always. Sometimes

there’s threads

in need of

untangling.

Category: the white spider

in time

there’s rhyme.

rhythm

vibrates

each string

making

music

for work

in the

right place

at the

right time.

focus

so as

not to

waste a

moment’s

notice

when it

arrives.

when the white spider pounces

May 16th, 2010 by marthacinadermims · No Comments

Category: the white spider

she is most vulnerable

when she displays her desires

acting instantaneous

attempting to acquire

what motivates her actions

the prey that saves her spirit

to pray for the right outcome

and never ever fear it

pouncing always has a purpose

presumed preferences

plenty of preparation

pointed points of references

leading to the very center

of the white spider’s weaving

where she resides sometimes hides

always hears her own breathing.

white spider memory

May 14th, 2010 by marthacinadermims · No Comments

Category: the white spider

memory

is in her

dna,

her path to

her way of

connecting

the future

to the past

with a thread

of data,

woven with

open source

dream language.

The White Spider Leaps

May 12th, 2010 by marthacinadermims · No Comments

Category: the white spider

Sometimes sunny summer plans

seem like far away fantasies;

what work was woven has been

whipped in the wind and worn away.

Gatherings of good and gracious people

have thinned down to the few who

whistle, work and walk in any weather.

Vision is the ability to view the veil

and the vague but valuable hints

of what can be when she continues

along the course set, contrary to

the expectations of the blind.

White Spider Worries

Category: the white spider

Making mistakes

missing details

deterrents to

democracy

security

getting the big

picture just right

each error costing

a thousand years.

Beautiful Whiskers

May 10th, 2010 by marthacinadermims · No Comments

Who says a man can’t be beautiful

and flowers can’t have beards?

My lover’s lit face

shines bright like

a  yellow flower with whiskers.

Each curve that I know so well wet

with sparkling gems an aura

of brilliance.
