This one's for Mommy =)

For the Love of Cookies


The oven expels
a heavenly scent
of baked dreams that
float towards my
snow white countenance.

Wise hands callused
from the many endeavors
with this machine
grasp the bamboo spoon
slowly churning the
precious ingredients into a
soon-to-be creamy delight.

deep devotion
fills the space between
mother and daughter
a loved shared and a
tradition kept safe
in the arms of generations.

Classroom Daydream

Classroom Daydream


eyes close as a glossy sheen
that sparkles in the candle glow
on my fingertips appears
I long for his warm lips
embracing mine with
the soft dew of passion

fingers gilded with silver accents,
so tightly clasping a thick comfort,
slowly loosen their grip
until they dance across
his olive cheeks

gradually waking as I curl up
in the down feather duvet
and soft cotton that just lets
me sink back down into
a land of sweet smells and
coffee beans; arms encircling
my tiny frame that

gently starts as I realize
the power-point is over
seats vacant all around me

Dancing Addiction

Dancing Addiction


my curves bouncing up and down
until warmth burns my
throat numbing my insides
feelings frozen in a time warp

hips twirling round and round as
the blaring melody takes away
the resentment of eyes that only
take, over and over

tightness in the chest
that rips me apart inside
as I smile so the world doesn’t
ask what’s wrong
