As I recommit to the March Marathon in 2024 this word came to mind:

Entraide 


Entraide is a French word

It is a symbol of hope, humanity 

Interconnectedness and solidarity 


It means to help each other in mutual aid

But it is much more than that


Entraide is a selfless act


A mutual act when all parties find 

care and support 

in assisting each other 

in a profound way


In a way that often change one’s life

In a way that changes the course of human

Understanding


It can be in small gestures 

repeated over time or not


It is an act full of unconditional dignity 


It is the foundation of our humanity 

and the link that ties us all together 

gently bringing us peace


Entraide is what makes our souls sing

in harmony 


and like

A cup of tea for the one dying of thirst 


Entraide is a core principle 

A kindness 

Unabashed love for each other


It is, pure joy

Tuesday was Tina’s day
She arrived for lunch
Mother usually roasted
a whole chicken for her
Tina brought dessert
Often the most incredible
Cream puffs

She told stories of her youth
Working laundry at the hospital
Caring for our father and his siblings
Along side my grandmother
Who had met her somehow
After the migrations of the
Second World War

Tina hailed from Italy
and never married but read
literally trash bags full of
harlequin romance novels
Including the famous red collection.
She subscribed to them all
and we in turn
adored her

Blizzard conditions sweep the northeast.
As temperatures drop, a cold wind
Emerges from the west.

Nestled under a beautiful blanket
Winter has returned

Yet under all that bravado roads remains soft. Right below the surface it is mud season.

And I am grateful
the buoyancy of Spring is on hold

For my mood has remained in tune
with the stark desolation
the end of winter
sometimes brings

And in the sharpening winds
I hear

High fashion bows down
to the Bohemian spirt
that infused the polka dot

From Venezuela to Japan
Herrera and Kusama’s
polka dots twirl in tempo
joined by the unmistakable leader:
the Jersey of the Tour de France
Mountain Stages.

As the Polka wildly plays on
the Czech accordion lifts feet
right up off the ground
And polka dots dresses
mesmerize even
the starchiest of souls.

May togetherness be once again
fostered world wide
around dots and dances alike
as soldiers might revive

Firelight

The first flame of fall,
I eagerly wait for that night:
wood-stove’s first light.

It’s soul lifting, much like
a summer camp fire
lighting up a Maine lake and rocky shore

The first flames of a Vermont fall
usher in winter just late enough
past frosts are almost forgotten

It is a joyous event
like Raclette

after a solid day of spring skiing

It is the antithesis to war

Watercolor on folded paper
STAINED GLASS

She picks up the page
A thick piece of the white print
making paper, so

Loved. She creases it
like an origami crane,
each fold opened closed,

until the whole page
lays flat covered in raised lines.
Delicately she

paints a mosaic
of bright color pools between
those raised lines, until

the whole page reads like
a gorgeous stained glass pane
full of light, and joy.

Grief is a strange thing
Tears don’t alway manifest
Yet sorrow remains
Poignant at odd times

Days of a year have rolled by
as water over rocks
in an Alpine torrent

Not salty or turquoise
as the Mediterranean Sea
but glacial and green
akin to a Vermont snow melt
in a warm breeze.

It’s the missing of his laughter,
the warmth of his smile,
and the tenderness of his heart
that hold me today a year later

And the words of a poem
that gently rock my heart.

Mind unravels wise
pearls. Quietly as conch shells
spiral, madness grows.

Night sinks soul. At dawn
the Apex out of control.
Giant waves over
each grain roll, as brain
on overdrive struggles to
center, see, and be.

In comes Poetry
as Remedy. Precision
tool counts. Calming Sea.

Unfazed her petals
lean stretching their green steams, to
the dark midnight sun.

Dazzling

In the spot light she
pirouettes to dazzling heights
while we sit zazen

Still Lives so brilliant
In silence gently quiver
Piero by their side.

Sheathed her knives do cut
Right to the core revealing
Nature’s mysteries.


Doorway

Light shines through the glass
Curtain sways to summer breeze
Flowers grace her deck

If one had to guess
who will come through next, to sit,
for tea, for neighbors

near and far have not
crossed paths, pandemic you see
closed garden gateways.

I’d say it would be
thee, crossing the stone arc at
the edge of my woods,

Rising to see from
hammock chair I would, whole heart,
Delighted, greet thee.

Yesterday’s prompt howls
Branches crack, nests hang balanced
I can hear the moon

Darkness has a loud
Voice. The plough person we love
Prepared us, for worse.

With gale force strength, ice
Whips into boiler plate, no
room, errors fatal

Winds excite this night
interminable the wait
Yet Spring will come, in

Time. Winter rises
Sugar’s sweetest gift: Maple
Snow, and Vermont’s hearts.

Water, sand and snow
Sahara to the Arctic
Twirl around my heart

Up down and sideways
From leaf to peak, shinning sea
Lift waves up to thee

In elegant glee
Clouds roll through a thunderstorm
Rejoice free to be.

Delicate

An ocean of moon light
Fills her silver hair

Wind picks up
Colorful prayer flags

A candle flickers
In her night

Pine branches sway
Fragrant and free

A mid a sea of winter green
A bell tolls in the distance

Her heart set
On healing she looks up

At all the stars of midnight

Golden Sands

Golden sands travelled
Yesterday
Rose in the winds
They blew two
Thousand miles
Three
Thousand kilometers
From the Sahara desert to Switzerland
Floating so many on the wind
They turned the skies
Gold
A shade of yellow
Like a summer storm
Before the lightening
Rose
Saved in a little jar
Reminiscing, love
Of a trip
A token returned
Still here
Forty years
Her teenage years
When the snow turned gold
