Twilight tiptoes through curtained clover leaves
Cape starlings stanzaed thank mighty Lord
spindly legs shake on spritely evensong breeze
closing chirp reminding that day is just a chord
What achievements marked chanting hours
manifesting with helio hands and heedful head
paper, pencil, thoughts danced about in bower
patterned sensations twirled needle and thread
A silent hymn I sit awaiting bright sickle moon
indwelling spirit dissolving wispy wanton wishes
blossoms lotus, liberates mind a special boon
intentions iambic winking flimsy floral fetishes
Moment to moment tasks tangent complete
each twilight twins a masterful morrow sweet

Le Cirque Bleu
The spotlight is aglow through the gloam
The light an indigo ink modifying color
She swings her body with agility thrusting backwards
upside down, with unseen wings,
an acrobat aerials amid the roar
She looks pretty with her fan in one hand,
long tresses flowing loosely
A circus horse made of jade below
makes eye contact and an interconnection
Without movement they are in an eternal trance,
In the deep dark yonder the golden helio appears
Fiddle and banjo play for the opening adagios act La Nouba
Her leotard tightly invokes, red with flower imprints
Statuesque, still in time showing off her physique
and impressing spectators from below the fliers' pedestal
From above the nets, with ease, she imagines a
world where gravity defies, and animals and objects fly
Flights of fancy within the flying trapeze
flights of fancy an indigo trapeze ~ from above jade nets, an ease

From the first light of day. specks of golden sunlight starts
the day, sunrise.
Dew drops glisten in the warmness of hope.
Tree branches bend toward the sun
Life wakes up with a sleepy yawn.
Sounds of voices. horns. busy life' surround and
encircle those living.
Time is moving to quickly to count.
The moon is moving into it's place.
Dusk is saying it's my turn.
Slowly steps are ceasing to move.
Streets are becoming isolated and lonely.
Glowing, twinkling stars replace bright light.
The sunset has softly said goodnight to all.

Galileo Galilei
Often went out of his way
To explain helio-philosophy
In return he was accused of heresy.

She was hectic,
A nice dress,
And a bunch of flowers,
To give someone’s finger,
To take to one’s heels.
Her sparkling eyes,
As helio,
Hedge laying,
Impatiently,
Impassion of love.
Time has incivility,
Inception, incessant,
Incitation, lucid,
To lower one’s eyes,
A heart broken tone arises.
