Acres Wide
Come sleep with me she said Bring some warmth to my bed That seems to spread acres wide Now that it’s empty on his side Just for a while hold me tight Shorten just one endless night So full of hours that I have wept Until exhausted and finally slept There’s been no word since that day He rang and said he was going...

Chocolate lotus lips A planted peach tongue And ebony seeding eyes I am the garden you greet With thick calloused thumbs And warm loving palms How can I be so selfish to deny you me to deny me you? I don’t know about tomorrow Next five years too much to ponder For I am like an autumn red leaf Fallen How can I think with boiling blood...

Green Acres
I don't know much about politics and such I'm just a regular farming guy Check the water table, tend to the crops Spend most my day scanning the sky But I will tell you what I do know, saying something don't make it so Can't no politician make the wind patterns change Can't no politician bring me much needed rain I can't live on empty words by career...

The sun came up today, as usual, but with a difference. While we slept, rain changed to snow, quarter-size flakes accruing on the wet earth. Temperature dropped faster than snowflakes, freezing the garage door shut. Morning brought a crystal cloak, to cover winter's drab face; a blanket of jewels, ...
