Soaring
Free as a bird 
No wings to restrain us 
Blown gently on salmon pink clouds 
Heaven!

Sunset
Subtle hues of sunlight
seen in the western sky.
Shades of orange and red,
salmon pink and yellow;
swirl on the horizon.
Sun sinks gradually
setting the sky on fire.

"Kool for Katz Kissed"



Wake me when it’s all over
I’m having a swinging time
dreaming my purrrrrfect dreams
Hanging with the OM monks 
I’m a nun hanging loose and hirsute
swinging in the breeze 
I’ve been given a reprieve

Call it Catnip Time

Wake me when it’s all over
feed me soul...

Terra cotta, craggy rocks
Scattered boulders, building blocks
In shades of sienna, ochre, buff
To form this high and hilly bluff
With sunlit ledges thin and wide
Place for hyraxes to sun and hide

Cerulean, azure, clearest blue
The cloudless sky that does imbue
Aquamarine lake, with cobalt tints
To gently ripple with sparkling...

Azure blue skies weep in rent glacial torrents,
iridescent earth sun trap poised  to garner sympathy,
dark red cloud’s indignant float might yet rumble,
toxic deluge drenches mudbank plot as toilers whine,
thunderstruck I gaze at wild indigo sea mist on brine-fleck shore  

Edge of seat terra...

I was a stylish, assertive travel agent, arranging getaways for busy people;
Like sudden getaways of jewel, shooting stars, on ebony nights of upheaval.

I planned calm, exotic, trip itineraries, for all tired of city hustle and bustle;
Like a dark red flower, blooming isolated, in peach sunshine...

(Oak Tree)

trees stand in a line
like soldiers of our time
they solute as I walk
with branches leering high
blotches of light
is all that appears of the sky
a sea of green
on the ground is seen
with a path like a salmon pink stream
another tree
appears at the end
made of half...

Roses For Pd
There is a cluster flower budded rose 
The name is "Valentine Heart"
It has a habit that’s open
The similarity is there from the start.

The flower is semi- double,
Pale pink and scented too
The rose reminds of someone I know 
And that someone is you.

Another rose...

Caged magnetic daydreams of lucid migration;

I’ve been there before.  It’s forbidden:

Orchard carved calligraphy crisply cut -
Spiraled surface-scratched immortality 
Dimly azure, aglow on videotape,
Red, blue, green.  Nature’s baby grand.
An organic player-piano ceaseless 
In mellow tone, perched potpourri hillside,
Plucking raspberry notes of beautiful song; 
Translucent...

Jet black ravens
Agents of time
Glide through
Salmon-pink sky
Collide in red
Dust storms
On mars...

Many engage to share,
impossible phenomenon,
the changing face of our mother star,
and the celestial painting of time:

the vivid grey of mid-noon clouds,
cracked like concrete in the later hours,
revealing
the milky fire of still burning life
in the evening sky, not colors you can paint
your walls with, hardly recognized...

Just a brittle bar of marble
slotted into a chapel wall
translucent white on salmon pink
with a phrase to explain.  That's all.
The line in silent eloquence defines
where Rome's flood water flowed, so long ago....

MEMORIES OF WAR 


In prison we turmoiled 
packed up cards to fall 
whilst they sucked 
genitals like bonbons 
a quartz on a table
gleamed its knowing

War torn ghettos with 
swollen stomachs 
stretched wide, auras 
shattered, splintered 
blood aflow, fainting in vomit 
march and tread, tread and...

Flowers bloom under salmon pink sunsets
grass grows and runs away with itself
newly born baby birds fly or fall
Yes, spring is finally in the air but
why am I so unimpressed with it all?

I yearn for cold, the crisp cool wind
my tennis shoes rustling the leaves
as I...

Allow me to introduce myself,
friends tend to call me Saturn’s MelRose;
Once you read me? I stay off the shelf;

I run around in a sweet saucer 
all decked out in salmon pink and green;
It runs on the smoothest ice water;

Vast emerald and rose trails take wing,
my...
