Hawaii Dreaming
I hug myself
longing for your embrace
And somehow
it brings you near
You smile
and my heart comes alive;
Where ever I go
Part of you goes with me...
I heard you
in another's laughter today
And...longed to run fingers
through ruddy hair
The moistness of my mouth
became yours
Touching me again and again
Gently with the wind
Your spirit mounted
the edge of my vision
Oh beloved, my heat's light is on...
Come on in

Heady Hawaii
I can see the joy on varied faces
Feel the atmosphere like elixir
Taste the salt on my lips
And remember how the hand of God
Reached from afar, and touched my cheek
I loved the wonderful flowers
Odors like heady wine
And the ocean's lapping sounds
As my soul drank in all I possibly could
Sea Gulls cried
Rock beat Boom Box beat
Boiling in my blood
Sweat between my breasts
Gentle breeze
God is in His heaven
And my world is mighty fine

Dedicated To : Mickey Spillane
Deceased July 2006
The sun is setting
Balmy breeze invigorates
With joy unbound
As I sail through air
Lord...
I don't want to come down
This day so lovely
Rays reflected off the sea
The cool sand beneath my feet
Sends chills inside me
I smell the salt
I love the beautiful luscious air
Feel wind through sifting hair
So, as my feet hit the ground
It's a different world
And as I turn around
My heart knows the woeful sound...

Betty's QuotesÓ 2001
Emotion is not enough. Writing down raw emotions, simply because they are genuine,
does not
qualify them as poetry. Oscar Wilde put it best when he said, "All bad poetry springs from
genuine feeling." Write with emotion AND in a language that uses metaphors, ironies,
and analogies.
