Riddle of a Dream (a prose poem)

Advance: “What am I missing,” I asked myself, “perhaps nothing,” I answered my second self. Then I said, “…let the actions about to happen, happen!” Who besides God, knows what is missing in one’s life anyhow?” a rhetorical question at best.
“Perhaps it is the path I am looking for,” I ask myself; the one […]

Balloon Animals for Kids

When I was a kid, I loved twisting Balloon Animals. When ever I had one made for me, I couldn’t wait to take it apart and put it back together. Of course they usually would pop on me in the process. But I think that this was the enticement. Trying to remake the balloon animal […]

The Dream Date

The first day i met you
Your smile hit me like a whirlwind
And left me breathless
Your eyes were wet with passionate compassion
Full of love, care and concern
I was transfixed and enchanted by it

And the Spanish […]

Believe

I know what you see but
It isn’t me. But how can it be
It is only a projection-
Of your dream,
Your dream of the world as
You want it to be-

Only the next second
is a virgin, Want to touch? […]

Powerful Black Female Poets

In 1773 Phyllis Wheatley became the first African American and the third woman in the United States to publish a book of poems. A second manuscript was written, but never published, nor found. Since that time, black female poets have spoken loud and clear about the angst and optimism of the black experience. Four of […]

Songs and Poems

“Darkness”
Uneven … the glow
a glow … supposed
a tool shown to mystery guests
and traveling pests.
Unraveled in harvested moons
your tunes
wrestled tunes
yet oh … my captured wounds.
I wrap them around cellophane hearts
a tour … be proud
somehow lost in […]
