Bayberry Candles

The scent of Bayberry candles

will forever bring me back to a time

of deciduous woods,

a colonial white house,

a crisp and colorful fall

and the burnt orange,

warm simplicity 

of the seventies.

On the Road Home

How can I be

authenticated

as I am

as I am

as you are

as you are

How can I be

authenticated

in all things

to all people

I encounter

on the road home.
