Alien

stranger to my skin,
an alien seeking roots-
quest of the soil-less

Waiting

summer clouds pregnant
with new life for the withered-
barren grass waiting

Happy Poem

racing from my cheery heart
you are
definite
liquid
saturating the page
even before the ink
releasing your seed
as if you know
how quickly this mood
may evaporate

Full Moon On the Helderberg

a late afternoon sighs
through the hibiscus hedge
red headed petals nod while
we pinch at each other mockingly
aged into one vine
grown apart but knotted at the heart
traded fan dangled ideas for familiar hearth
old garden chairs
recalls of toddlers antics
damp eyed at the men emerged 
almost over night in the door frames

years huge, pendulous 
yield
bitter berries
sweet fruits
I don’t think I have a memory before you
nothing considerable at any rate
nothing worth remembering anyhow

darkness clears the light 
leaves the door open
to share a bed of fragrant evening blossom
to remember
we are who we have always been
that we belong here
