Premium Member Fresh Perspectives
I was a learned college professor, who was forever eager to know more,
As blue-gray waves, finding sandy beaches, turn to seek another shore.

I drove to work smiling, in those tangerine days, so glad for avid youths,
Like when dusky stars waltz out dreamy, winking to show...

Let me pluck ripened apples and strawberries for your delight
And put my hand under your head to soften the ground on which we lie tonight.
You  are the white marguerites in my meadow flowing with deep grass,

The Flowers Welcome the Queen
THE   FLOWERS   WELCOME   THE   QUEEN 



Spring returns  to my garden and the  Golden Queen
Once  again  warms  everything she touches.
A little girl  comes barefoot  into my empty garden one day.
Her hair...

Boten des Frühlings
Margeriten, Löwenzahn
Dicht bei der Straße 

Und Hummeln im Freudenflug
Über dem Blütenteppich



Messengers of spring
Marguerites, dandelions
Close to the road

Bumblebees in joyous flight
Over the flower carpet

Two Kids Remembering
TWO   KIDS   REMEMBERING


There we were

Next to the railtracks in the middle of the industrial heartland of 1950s Tyneside

Martin and me 

Summer’s day and no money and no place to go except the drab streets and projects

Just exploring carelessly

Among the  factories,...

Premium Member Silence Is Golden
Bright Marguerites,open and ablaze,
Reflected in a sunny haze.
Lilies waxed in a summer light,
A Jasmined fragrance to fill the night.

Perfumed petals,paper-white
Intoxicate,then delight;
Speaking volumes with words un-heard
Silent,flowers upon which all senses merge....

The Colors of Evening
THE COLORS OF EVENING


Playing canasta with family and a shiny new deck of cards,
Kings, queens, the beautiful blackness of the spades.
While outside, through the window, everywhere 
Snow is falling in an uninterrupted blanket over the evening
And the land is silenced. 
Near the window my daughter’s...

Maguerite's Charms
MARGUERITE’S    CHARMS

Rainy day finally gave way to intermittent sun -
Walked out with camera before rain should return,
And fell in love, mesmerized, helpless, captivated.
Stopped at garden with waist-high iron railings, riveted,
And its flowers stunned me.  Never knew you could get
So many blooms...

The Gardener
THE GARDENER



Captain  Viktor  Stogov?
Oh he’s gone now
Cancer took him
A cigarette killed him
Where ten years of 
Enemy tanks could not

His flowers blow in the spring breeze
Tulips daffodils and marguerites
They come back every spring
    - so  he’s not really gone ...

Daughter's School Report
DAUGHTER’S  SCHOOL    REPORT



She comes to me
In the morning of her youth
And tells  all about her school day,
Her smile as fresh as
Young marguerites trembling in the breeze
In an Alpine meadow
With their white fingers fluttering
And  green stems 
Bending in unison....

Messengers
MESSENGERS 


Serene leisurely flight of dandelion weightless 
Seed puff balls,   thoughts ascending
Across the  void measureless
Between the marguerites and the hedging.


Untroubled, they silently float, glide,
Delivering the seed of an idea
On the air’s measureless tide
From  somewhere else to here....

Falling In Love 

It all started in a very simple way 
as she walked down the path and drank in  
the lilies bowing their heads to the river north 
and the birds chirping their love song to the
