Late August storm ...

Late August storm 

sharp clatter of hailstones 

through rain and thunder –

I place a psychic shield

over my little car

My friend who made ...

My friend who made magical items 

gave me several as gifts. A wand, 

a cup, certain physical spells.…  

Some others I bought from her, 

paying them off slowly. She seemed 

to think I needed the energy of green.

Was it prosperity, healing or peace

she wished to bestow on me? Now

that she is no longer here with us 

on earth, I remind myself to make sure

sometimes to wear green crystals.
