17 years ago on Valentine Day my husband ask me to marry him. So I wrote him a poem today. I'm a dork...I know!

Six Thousand Two Hundred and Six Days

i just wanted to say
you have never turned away from me
i can't explain what this means
but it has meant everything to me
and it is what i needed most in life

you have accepted me as i am
even though i don't believe in lids, doctors, or underwear
you let me wear your socks everyday
because i can never find my own
i also often can't find
my keys...my courage... or even my mind
and you always lend me yours

every evening you lift your arm
physically saying "here is your soft place to fall"
as people, places, and time have zoomed by
we have stayed here...in this space... inches from each others face
holding each other through all the storms
in this life boat that we built to be rocked to sleep in
every night like spoons under the moon

after our first two weeks of dating i told you
i wanted to be included in all your future plans
you said you would and you did
i told you i never wanted to promise forever
i just wanted to wake up one morning when we were 100 yrs old
and say "wow ... we choose each other everyday"
yes we did get marry
but i said it was just for the old people and i meant it

so i just wanted to say
i choose you again today because
you have never turned away from me
i can't explain what this means
but it has meant everything to me
and it is what i needed most in life

Happy Heart Day

So one day  I got out of the shower, towel dried my entire self but apparently missed "the furry body of my butterfly" . I sat down on the bed and to my surprise when I stood up and looked down at the bedsheet there was a wet spot in the shape of a perfect heart. I was so overwhelmed by this moment... magic is alive, the universe is intelligent, I am not an accident, I am stamp, a heart shaped stamp of love. I fell in love with my body a little more that day, my body must be pretty amazing to do such a thing. Immediately I got a sharpie to make it permanent on the sheet (which I still have 10 years later) and took a picture which I will send you when I find it.  It is hard to explain how much this moment meant to me but often when I stand up I think about the invisible heart stamp I leave. Love.

i the serpent woman fly

so do you see the serpent coiled at the base of my spine
and do you recall what it means
can you still read my signs
do you remember being bitten
oh i still know you cried
well is just a warning at this point
but i am warning you don't blink your eyes
cause in a second flat
I'll change my mind

so do you see the serpent writhing up the center of my spine
and do you recall what it means
can you still read my signs
do you remember making love underneath me
i made you blind
and you felt God through me
as seven of your centers open wide

so did you see the serpent slither and hide away
do you recall what it means
can you still read my signs to this day
oh did you watch me shed my skin for five days and be reborn
did you watch me bleed for five nights
in the morning i the serpent woman fly
i the serpent woman fly
i the serpent woman fly
