Premium Member The Moon Visitation
Backdoor wide open
A cream moon is coming in
Softly, like a dream.
Beyond red sun, pearly rays
in a lazy, lilac night.

Howling wind whimsy
'midst the fantasy flowers
in plum, pink and green.
Silver moon, always welcome
lending silk beauty to night....

Faint barks, evening, wind, and rain
I'm standing outside these gates again
staring at her long twisted cobbled grey 
She'll be pleading and crying for me to stay
Teary-eyed,.. as I start to shake

You see, it's my witching mother
Changing eyes, I remember
Each day a day in mid-November
The whiskey...

Visitation
Last night, while you were asleep
resting your tired and sick body
I visited you in my thoughts
and danced with you....

The Night Visitation of Jesus Christ
Last night Jesus Christ spoke to me.
Last night Jesus Christ appeared to me.
It was the eve of Palm Sunday and I was in bed and could not sleep.

I looked up at my ceiling and I saw Jesus Christ with his arms stretched out.
Kneeling was Mother...

Bee Visitation
One Sunday in church came a bee.
Up my pants leg he sat on my knee.
I jumped from piano,
Tore pants from my torso.
Did striptease, where no one could see!...

The Visitation


     Said Gorbelung to Gorbeling,
     Flying in their spaceship thing,
     "Over there is planet Earth,
     I wonder what it's really worth."

     So travelling at...

The Visitation
Garden sentinel, carrion he’s stripping 
Woolf tail wagging white fangs ripping 
Stream-of-consciousness telling, spewing
Dog’s breakfast masticating, chewing

Mourning doves cooing, woo-OO-ing
Backyard cricket legs rubbing, chirping
Hot summer night simmering, squalling
Beginnings long day ending, waning

Winged silhouette floating, rising
Sleepy canine lies dreaming, chasing
The stranger rises--ascending, falling
Moonlight beaming, shadow stalking

Temptress...

Visitation
Dreamed about my mother
Who comes to me when I am in pain

Not to my reckoning through woo woo land
Otherworldly celestial plain

Implanted she was the first time
I was held warmly to her breast

As the antidote to what ails me
She comes when I am under test

In this...

Premium Member A Lucid Dream As a Visitation
I used to have a lovely mini-dog
who followed me wherever I would go.
Nobody in my family cared for him,
for only I he loved – that Eskimo!

Into my arms he’d leap when I got home
from having worked. He’d wait beside the door
and know instinctively that I’d...

Visitation
She rests in sweet repose,
as mourners pass--
some she never even knows.

Her casket is a deep, dark green,
its lining a silken shade,
a softer sheen,
a perfect counterpoint
to her chestnut tresses.

Pale hands rest upon her breast,
framing the emerald of her dress.

She would be truly upset
to see you gazing...

After work,
drinking in a matchbox bar in Shimbashi,
waiting for a sign...

The noren twitches.
A hand appears between the flaps.
An eye assesses the interior,

and is gone....

October Visitation

A peeking orange smear
Talked to the lad inside his head,
When he was eight and nine months,
On a breezy October twilight in 1960,
As the orange light told him silently,
To go to the river's edge behind the red house,
To go there and see what it wanted...

The Visitation Day
The omens were vague
The portends silent
Urimm and thummim 
Silent as still waters
The seers all fatigued
The lovers embracing
The jilted bride crying
The watchers unseeing
The abode of fun alive
Kings rumbling..
Their daily incorrigible..
Stuff.. in rolled the guest
The city awash with royalty
Chariots took to the tarmac
Then the royal flag flew
Twas...

One
night
my dear 
dog – long gone -
appeared as I slept.
Waking, I saw him on my bed!
Into my arms he leapt! With joy and surprise I pressed
my face into his long soft fur. Oh,it felt much too real to have only been a...
