floating mall
wife
mother
homemaker
in sunshine and monsoon
be my boat my treasure stall
of rambutan and dragon fruit
of noodles and khanom krok
for fellow and foreign landers
in the Basin of Chao Phraya
station of acquaintance
spirits transforming their cloth
yet unable to mask memories
that dwell at the crossroads
of moment—
and sometimes
those of modest dress
be the fondest
with a will for immortality
Encinada
Glass Slipper of Bahía de Todos Santos
A Smile below Guadalupe grape dancers
Innkeeper of commerce and cruise ships
Master Chef of fish tacos and enchiladas
Night Owl of cervezas and mariachis
Enchantress of shop-till-you-drop’ers
Cinderella of the Peaceful Sea
Happy Mothers Day
She
who bestow’d upon us
more than the gift of Life
but also her kindly Heart—
seeds sprouting
both Love and Nature’s favor
Breath Giver
every eon arous’d I become
by a stranger’s sensual embrace
till I cry aloud a joyful cry
and spew forth my eggs
of liquid fire and ash
to mingle with the suitors
of land and sky and sea
that my evolving world might endure
not only to join Time
but Her for some to really feel
daily bread
mid morn—
kitchen window opens its eyes—
charming our nest into song frenzy—
front door reveals a friend
trying to mimic our chirp—
“Morning, pretty birds!”
our hearts beat past our wings
as wild seed fills our aerial bowl
and garnishes the feet of our tree—
“Enjoy, pretty birds!”
once again so good be life—
‘tis breakfast in Vale of Spring
