Dream Into The Ocean Light
A Mystical Visit To The Deep For My Muse
Initial words and image from Coopers Cottages Here
…’I am a man upon the land
I am a silkie in the sea
And when I’m far from every strand
My dwellin ‘tis on Sule Skerry…
The Silkie of Sule Skerry (Scottish ballad)
This is another poem for my wonderful Muse with a musical favourite of hers.

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
