Star Dust Souls

To burn brighter and hotter than stars and suns,
even in the vastness that is devoid of warmth
is in of itself a beautiful thing

beauty somehow captured in the souls of mortal beings,
star dust made manifest...

Universe to universe,
soul to soul,
stardust to stardust.

Little Dreams

I feel a little sick this morning
upset stomach
new medication
for an old problem

The feeling is familiar
somehow
I feel nostalgia
and determination

Like I want to cry
but I have work to do
no time to coddle
an achy old remembrance

I can't help but dream
on days like this
all the little dreams
that most days I forget
