White Foam On The Bark Of The Tree
The wind moves soft through silver air, A hush upon the waking sea, And morning spills its golden light, On white foam on the bark of the tree. The waves have whispered through the night, Their hands have shaped the fleeting spray, Now pale as ghosts in trembling light, They gleam and softly fade away. A moment caught, a breath held fast, Yet time...

The Dogs Still Bark
i saw him through the screen door, the sun casting just right. his beard gone all gray now, eyes cracked a ghost of a smile. he doesn't notice me right away but the dogs do, crowding at my feet like they always have. like nothing shifted not a thing has changed between this moment and the last one they remember. and i'm different, i know...

I hear a barking dog in the distance tonight Not a desperate bark or a warning bark One of those weird I-am-bored-with-life-barks Neither of my own dogs respond They also have no use for small constant yipping dogs...

LIONS DON'T BARK
Lions don't barks They roar Always active and focus Ready to take action at any time They set eyes on a prey or an attacker. Lions don't relent They go furiously and fearlessly After what they want or need No matter the recklessness. In the game of life Be the lion Pursue your dreams relentlessly Go after all you want or need Slowly and...

Beyond the Bark
A familiar path I walked frequently with glee the feeling of a constant stare came over me upon looking to find the place of the stare nobody was in sight, no one was even there Next day I decided to look a bit closer maybe I'm dealing with a trickster wondering who could it be watching what I found out was...

LOST IN LOVE
Anytime she passes through trees another making it gardens. First meeting hurt her to imagine. She knows it's not right but she keeps him right. Loving him with all her might. Only for or him to hurt and break her back. Watching her always bark. Showing her another he got. She thought what had she got not. Pass through hell stones perhaps she...

Earth
At night soil dreams in silent technicolour, peaceful and alone. It exhales gently without the trampling of mankind snapping roots; without the world above and its usual stampede. Branches notice it first, having time to stretch, to watch stars appear; time to open bark and bow wide, sprawling and luscious. Away from daily smokes and...
