Dearest Love




It seems you came to me
like an angel from God's bosom
saving me
from my own mind
of entrapment and loss
my dearest love
When I see your face
I smile
your voice finds a warm place
in my soul
I rise again
to be strong and vibrant
my dearest love
What words can provide
thankful feelings
you saw love in me
when my reflection
was empty
my dearest love
I awakened to fly again
to move
towards higher heights
afraid that I must move on
move forward without the one
who nurtured my spirit, loved me dearly
my dearest love
my love for you will never cease
but has changed
I will leap
without holding your hand
or needing your touch
but my heart will be towards
you always
for you are
my dearest love

My "education" at home with my mother, at school, on my neighborhood playgrounds, and at church, all placed males in the middle of the universe. My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ...

Aquarius Rising - Authentically Me

Aquarius Rising - Sy Smith I'm not one to really get into Zodiac signs and yet I'm fascinated the astrological relationship to our spirits. I know we all still blame the moon for man's "lunacy". When I read about the sign of Aquarius, I'm taken by how much it does describe me. I'm not guided by astrology but I do recognize its connection to the Universe. Some don't realize how man used astrology throughout the bible as a guide for God's people. But this isn't about astrology and the Christian faith but me being the fabulous Aquarius female that I am. This is me, basically...READ ON Aquarius (The Sun is in Aquarius from approximately January 20 to February 18, depending on the year). One of the standout characteristics of those born under the Sun Sign of Aquarius is their unwillingness to follow the beaten track. With ...
