Planet earth (the Mother of all)
breathed a collective
and palpable sigh of relief,
and I too deeply exhaled,

Small Fish

...
Holding onto a rail.
I lean over to see my reflection
mirrored in the water 
and small fish swimming
in the camouflage of me.

I muse whether they are feeding
on my thoughts, nibbling
on th...

Portuguese Man o' War

...

Sunrise and already the water 
is being seared with a glow 
as if under a grill. 
You can feel the heat building
in the morning air, the sand 
still warm from yesterday.

The tide has left...

Darkness

...

In the ebony night time stops to flow,
the still hands of the impetus clock freeze
the timeless infinite pathos in congealed instants 
for listless life wandering on the shadows of past,

A Matter Of Faith

...

When I was a child, I wondered

Was deep sleep, death?

Was every morning a new life, a new incarnation?

Waking up, I found the people around me were the same

I was the same too, not...

Tongues

...Gaelic: it was my mother's native tongue,
and her grandmother’s elder tongue.
Grandfather was a Romani gypsy,
horses naturally understood his voice.

My lips follow English,
a tangled language ...

Touch

...familiar foot traffic
past a garden, plush
         menagerie of color and scents

Moments

...I journey across time to get what is rightfully mine;
I journey across time to view the galaxies from the hill
and absorb the sweet scents from succulent grape blowing from a distance.

Music To My Eyes

...I was a passionate, aspiring musician, striving quite hard to be a success;
As nature lovers try hard to succeed, at living where pretty flowers press.

Rosy days teemed with activity and planning...

Crossing a Continent At Night

...Down a runway skybound
to cross a continent, 
see from a window
a city fall away
with bright beads 
strung along a coast,
then turning inland, 
clumped townships 
shrinking to solitary lights...

Evenings

...I can see the tops
of almond trees tinged
by a setting sun,
a vast column 
of starlings overhead
and hear their whirring wings
as they head home
to roost. Feel

Cement Trucks

...In the end
