Laid in a ragged carpet,
a corner of the street
awash with vivid colour,
a vision bittersweet.
Between the sagging flowers,
ribbons and cellophane,
a portrait and a smiling bear
whose face belies the pain.
With passing days the blossoms wilt
the colours fade, they die,
raindrops run down the frame and glass
the silent portrait...

A paradise of nature eloquent flowers bouquets sculpted by a spiral maze:
that has yellow, orange, pink, red roses with a rich redolent scent phase

Lilies, lilacs tulips, daisies, daffodils, buttercups of bountiful blooms;

as we see your sweet image
and cringe at the carnage;

with those vivid blue eyes
and death cannot sever
our hearts from you, ever.

by lies, lies of Gods that sacrifice
by killing, by melting away and by 
burning at the stake
these are what happens
when wrongness is seen 
the oceans of lost tributes
waves around the tides pull...

Harry, your words were moving
emotions and imagery so approving.

Death does come to all with the last breath flow,
we refuse to accept the void shadow go.

Your life's process anew all over again
to sit with the king among men.

You leave us with a remembrance of your soul.
We...

Sea worthy, she be worthy;
Wordsmith equip, Poetess;
Author, poetess-word smith, floating vessel letter arousal;
All those words, stories told;
Frequently heard, ocean words;
Bound to a septic world;
Fish in the seas, eyes before E’s
Placing letters on the line, fishing will be just fine;
Robin’s crest-eagles nest, stories of alt-
Poetess;
Sea worthy,...

apologies to Robert W. Service
There’s a tale that is told
In the night Yukon cold
Of the shooting of Dan Mc Grew
The truth as it’s known
Is a legend that’s grown
And the truth is known by very few

It’s twenty years on
The Malamutes gone
There’s nobody left from that night

But...
