She fills her life
like so many others
yet all She wants
is to be a mother.


Strong willed
yet
unfulfilled.


Beautiful
inside
& out
still fruitful.


Mired in a lifestyle
with forever choices
ahead for miles.


Kind,
full of life
She doesn’t want
to be a wife.


Confused without a plan
looking for an ear
where She can.


Not sympathy
love & support
advice, no lectures
no words of last resort.

Who knew?

Well, it's official. I am moving to Chicago. Yep, this California guy is leaving the Gold Coast and moving to the 'The Windy City.' I know its time to go and the experience is good for me. California just isn't the same and rather than continue to be frustrated with the job market. The uncontrolled growth and the traffic that goes with all of the new people is choking the area. While nervous about moving to a new city, with no friends, I am excited about the change. Now I just have to get rid of 40 years of California stuff. Why do I have 5 pairs of flip flops?

WAITING FOR A FRIEND
She is lost
and I am anxious
friends but
suddenly different
a new closeness
a glance
a touch
and now a brush
was it just by chance
Now we sit close
and tell each other our dreams

TO THE SEA

Little bird, little bird
what do you see
flying high above
to the sea
alone or in a pack
you move both
left and right
with the wind
at your back
up, down, back and forth
fly, fly, day, and night
the things you see
going out to the sea

Another Job interview this morning

Just found this link to an old blog I forgot about. Time to start blogging again.
