Kate's Poem in my head

I need to quiet the voices in my head
Somany other people
all telling me different things and how to behave
act this way, act that way,
wow you're inappropriate
I just smile and laugh
and defend myself with flippant responses
but when I come home
I cry and rage and break things
with the only things to comfort me
are four legged and furry or two legged and feathered
the world seeems much nicer with a black cat curled up on my lchest
amd the purrs seem to say that I am loved




curled up on my lap

Kate's Poem

the crystal ballI hold in my hands
from a thousand crushed quartz crystals
with a pinch of cinnabar dust
I can see worlds unfold
the crystal ball is smooth and round
inside the ball a thousand of little bubbles
white clouds, pink clouds, frozen in place but always seem to be moving
within this crystal ball of unclear focus I can see clearly

Kate's Poem Turquoise

heart shaped turquoise earrings in my ear
turquoise for love, protection, friendship, bring
one faces in front one behind within the circle enlightenment entwined
buy the necklace, break the beads
pour the beads in the chalice with the salt water entwined
walk a clockwise circle around your house
and with your hands pour the turquoise all around your house
s within that circle know you are safe
for only love may enter here


orange,yellow,green, blue black
with sparkling eyes cute beak and talons
sit on shoulder and squawk

Kate's Poem Bad Day and the MIGRAINE

Mind exploding pressure built up behind my eyes
Burst into pain so bad I cannot see
Feelings in my guts seem to be bursting through my esophagus and coiming through my mouth
People voices ringing in my ears so loud I cannot hear
Turn off the lights and sink into the cold tile floor
evermore


Pretty bird on my lap
Waving and saying hi and tearing kleenex
Walking on the floor, biting


So many people talking
Tired of their irritating voices like too many bees buzzing
Ignorance and cruel word seem to reign here
The cruel mockery tells me to give up my hopes the spark inside me that keeps me going
and not let my light shine so bright
As a resort of self-protectionI tell myself I'm better than you, I'm smarter than you, I know more than you
But I know that kind of thinking can only lead to pain and sorrow
I just can't seem to find my way out
And they would have me blot out the light of the sun and moon and stars that reside within my soul and within all of us

Kate's Poem

Warm day, light breeze
On the breeze comes the sweet scent of peach blossom
little bees work with fervor on the delicate flowers
Which carry one of the sweetest of scents
their tiny legs coated with pollen
This sight makes me smile

White dresses blow in the summer wind
ladies standing beneath tall powerful leafy green oaks
with parasols to protect them from the sun
while gentlemen play croquet

Kate Poem

As the warm spring breeze blows
I feel myself drifting away
For the weather right now iis dreamy
For when I walk around the pond right now
My head feel as if it is that half-asleep half-awake state of meditation or enlightenment
MY mind is at ease and my body is at rest but it is still moving
Ilook up in the blue sky and see clouds
And within them I can see my fortune


Little white and brown dog
With four leaf clover on her butt
With very cute bright eyes

9278

Isee a herd of antelope in the noonday sun
In a field playing by the highway
And I think to myself what a rare sight
I generally only see them in the mists of the morning
or in the shadows of the twilight


sick and tired of people
fucked up, sad, angry,enraged sick people
I need to move beyond

More Poem

In the field of golden dry grass
I see a lone coyote looking at me
In those eyes I see a oneness
and the question "where is my pack?"
I understand this because I often feel that question within myself too
A deep longing for my mate and my fellows
And a knowledge that I should be happy for what I have
But the longing desire for a carnal mate is deeply embedded
within the twists and spirals of my genetic code
Try as I may to fight against it
The pain within my chest and the chemicals within my brain are hard for me to fight against
I long to be one of the three ravens that fly witnin the skyRavens are the symbol of magic
And three herald mirth and good cheer
And that is what I want

Poem

I walked a spiral path
To find the balance of light and dark within myself
For we need both to survive
For is things were too bright on the light
we would burn up and die
But if you have shade to sit beneath
we can relax in the shade
And tell out fortunes in the patterns of the shadows of the leaves
