'Fire & Ice'
My heart and mind have thought and felt together
with soul and spirit intertwined as one
And shaken from this sleep of dying embers
the words regifted wrapped in morning sun
Days both long and short have etched their meaning
onto the pages time does not subscribe
Each rise and fall the tide of love remaining
as seasons change—when fire and ice collide
(Dreamsleep: November, 2023)
