Dance with me,
neath full moon glow,
so bright these evening skies

giddy little child
with the mona-lisa smile

Morning ignites a murder of white crows.
roosting in the loft of spruce, maple and oak.
Preening moon and star from death's fertile dream.

Ribbons of sunlight wrapped...

While the lightning lit the sky
The old house it shook and trembled 
As the howling wind went by.

The night shone for the full moon,
Sky brewing a coarse monsoon,
Bolted were windows, locked were doors,
The frequency of death frighteningly soared.

bringing with it new ghosts
but I'm wrapped tight in mother's quilt, 
each painstaken swatch stitched by her own hand

Refreshing rain on summer afternoons.
A theater of symphonies and plays.
My bedroom wafting soft, romantic tunes.
The mountains, high, or lowly desert...
