The Portal Called The Kitchen Window
Cool cool breeze
Gracing this space with the love scent of
Basil
Soil
Lemon
Dancing
Bringing the Moment
The right here right now
Eternity.
Honeybees, butterflies,
And black ants
Busy on the one side
And, I, chopping fresh, luscious
Tomatoes & cucumbers & rosemary
On the other
Our work Our play
Pay attention.
As the sun comes round the
Corner bringing the next
Hour
And the work-play
On both sides.
Blessed Be.

A Sojourner. A Poet. A Lover of Life.
Deborah spends her moments seeking the Truth, traveling to other lands, learning the native tongues, uncovering the many stories of the Divine all in celebration of the Sacred Mundane. Her journeys guide her pen, and, as a conduit, sees her mission as sharing the awe and paying attention.
When not on the road, she can be found in her kitchen, reading cookbooks (her favorites include Lois Rothert’s Soups of France, and MFK Fisher’s How to Cook a Wolf), simmering soups, baking breads, and savoring chocolates. It is said: Scratch a gourmand – find a poet. These are words that bless her cutting board.
She enjoys her role in this life as the mother to beautiful twin daughters, who teach her and guide her in becoming the best person she can be. They are a source of inspiration and awareness.
