Starlight In Glowing Lines

The purple lines of  mid-evening
Announces that  lush of Starlight,
Will be arriving soon from behind
As fluff of clouds sweep the winds .
In a starry blink of a landscape
Which partially hides her face
Full of style and lilting glory;
And In her court are a thousand gems
Sharing their heavenly light;
To twinkle through the heavens
With a lovely dazzling vision,
While I relish this bright beauty
My feet rush to find my place
Cuddling this iridescent display.

Calming My Fears

A rail of secrets and hidden spells
With footsteps grind on lowland's farm,
Where staring owls cannot foretell,
How near I'll be from deep woods' harm.

And as I stop with eyes quite torn
Through black of night's uncertainty,
Scales the breath to wait for fresh dawn
Erasing fears 'neath the wise tree.

Trail of light descends on relay
Hovering on boughs, so serene,
Leaves plucking tunes of evening’s play
Night blessing my gray doubts , I dream.

Kissed by prayers bringing fresh hope,
The moon rises as flowers swell
While birds await starlight's approach
And hours rest where my new joy dwells.

Borobudur

O Borobudur, I shed  my clothes to  reach the  winds of your dome.
Each footprint marking life’s trails engraved in dampened memoirs
Now, breaths  enter  an unlit mosque residing within  me

Gemstone Ruby

Oh brilliant  power of ruby
Infuse healing unto spirit's energy!

Cornfields Whisper

Faded murmurs soothe new twilight
as a gentle smoke blows around the wind,
mild circles hushed by Virginia maize
along a dampened lane, rainy lane
bringing me back home with comfort,
after a calm storm light and breezy
with the falling of ashen branches,
ruffling the threads of sky with corn husks 
and a tender whisper cradles the farm 
rising like bread of morning,
when all else lays quiet in the twang of sunrise.

Reflections

You, the bearer of forgiveness 
In times where my acidic words
Spew from tangles of fear;
When I wait the longest nights
As far-flung work-hours  tear me apart.

Beneath our old maple tree
Our faces silenced as hardened leaves;
Till you guide me past pained moments
Into deep roots of reflection
Calming my doubts as I relate
How abandoned this soul cries for lost hours.

And you listened, listened
To my psalms of discontent--
While into mirrors of twilight,
I slowly begin to understand
The worth of all your own torments.

Glowing Tower

This glowing nightscraper ‘s iridescence
Brings older fishermen persevering
Through misted oceanfront’s  territory
With  lighthouse  exploring disturbances.

Tall tower---devoted  custodian,
Beams protect travelers’ fascination
While glitter envelops humankind
In faithful , reverent  dedication.

This Morning

through sheen of morn’s reflection

a lightband mirrors the lake

in trickled crystals bopping

silencing the gulls

Display of Plants

Many multi colored plants smile at the other flower's 
purple clematis, likes her roots hidden from Mr.Sol,
sunlowers stand, soldier's towering, guarding 
my acre's pink impatience pray for patience, that is their main goal

An envy green hummingbird sucks from his ruby red feeder
Orange day lilies eat sno-cone's as they play with rose,
I saw them one morn playing hide and seek with a flutterby
it would stop to sniff the sweet aroma with his itty nose

At dusk original solar lights turn on automatic
these lightning bugs in the bushes of my life's garden,
a ginormous elephant ear bends down, as they say howdy
A window box to the sky teaches my heart not to harden.

Betrayal

again
she combs the woods 
through rain

pouring 
inside her heart
like sting

of glade
as damp lungs heave--
betrayed.
