Held in Silence
Where silence becomes a voice.
The Loss of My Children
An elegy shaped by two kinds of grief: the sudden absence that splits time into before-and-after, and the slower loss that arrives as a living transformation. Moving through tenderness, mentorship, and the quiet labor of love inside a home, the poem traces how devotion can survive catastrophe—while still leaving behind a haunting, ordinary silence.
The Gift of Togetherness
“The Gift of Togetherness” is a meditation on love, gratitude, and the unseen threads that bind all beings. Moving from the intimacy of parents and ancestors, to the companionship of friends, partners, pets, and trees, and finally to the vast body of humanity and life on Earth, the poem weaves a vision of belonging across dimensions. It is both a hymn to causality and a tender bow to the shared gift of existence.
Where the Two Once Stood
A quiet elegy for a pair of birch trees — brothers in bark, born of the same root — and the sorrow of witnessing one remain as the other fades.
This is a poem about grief, about letting go when love has lingered too long to say goodbye. It is written in silence, and meant to be read there too.
The Web
A quiet witnessing of what may happen to a spider when the world moves through her without noticing.
