To my Beloved

{Poem to Myself on Valentine's Day}

I must admit it was a surprise, I never expected it to be you--

and yet time's passed-- some have come and gone

but here you are, yes you.

And so I declare, I will love you with truth,

and in times of changing too

for you are the most important love,

never alone, no

rather anew.

Let your hair down and get wild! Even if alone in the kitchen with some rose petals and a vintage dress just for you...

Write yourself a love poem, will you?

A Fairy in My Kitchen, Murat Sayginer

Masquerade Please

Here is my idea for a wonderful Valentine's weekend- to host a masqerade ball in an old dilapidated castle, with winding staircases and candle lit halls. To escape in the splendor of the old world, with grand lavish dresses and secret passageways...

Think of me...

Think of me fondly...

Blowing in the New Year

Wind

Like wind, sometimes we are blown into the direction of sorrow-

loss perhaps,

or sickness.

But a new year and a new wind,

perhaps a shade of pink.

Return to me

my lover

usher me into the sunlight

and the brush

Let my story come from here--

from this place of living.
