Premium MemberSunshine Invasion

red heart of morning
guilty shadows fled like dreams
scattering moonbeams

Blue jay on green rose
caressed by gold creeping heat
petals and concrete

saffron veiled dancers
of every scent and color
city sun culture

pearly paths faded
plum day's grown a bit older
sunshine's grown bolder

in the deep of night
train, planes and automobiles
continual hum

in midnight hour
a drone flying in the sky
city never sleeps

Old City Photograph

Bright, pulsate city
Captured in contrast color
Of light and shadow.

Premium MemberWings of the Word

Dedicated to Loretta 

whispering winds wax
full grace moon steams with prayers 
souls wane to rebirth 

circular sight sings
her breath beams with angel wings
soul note city skies

earth eyes emotions 
stars eclipse and release peace
divine chimes Saint seas

earth angel gardens 
preaches...teaches and reaches
trust eternity 

guardian guitars
musical dreams layer love
echoes of Jesus

As snow is melting,
It's as though even buildings
Are softly crying.

Soft drizzle falling
Streets in an ancient city
Shining cobblestones
