Memories Lost Within a Frozen Mist

...It was a very balmy midsummer night
shadows danced with me under starlight
I heard a nightingale cry out for its mate
in that moment joy fled. I became sedate

My mind swirled with thoughts conc...

Pirouetting Prussian Flakes

...Nestled with the glittering elements, 
I ponder the immortality of the senses—
my lucidity twirls,
as pirouetting flakes through
sapphire mist amidst cyanic windstorms, 
drifting like arctic emb...

The Heart of Spring

...The Heart of Spring

Spring's heart slips through small winter cracks
Breaks through brumaled icy attacks
Coaxes snow and ice - melt away
Ignores icebound pleas to stay
Hoary whispers silenced ...

Nocturnal Orb Aglow

...Spring angel wings graze silver moon in charcoal sky, icebound earth’s dream nap.

Algonquinsaurs-After the Hurricane

...Through an ice age
Now the icebound world was completely 
Melted to show the bone structure of
Algonquinsaurs

No head
The bone structure is
Pushed to the ground
By his two skinny legs

The Orphers' Inferno

...Two true taboo nocturnal friends
Bedeviling the vernal places;
Un-men unto un-town's undead ends,
Under wrinks in mansworld's faces;

Take care me boys, wear Wolfrat clothes - 
Make sure you're...

Lament

...Lament

Brooding days,
     Vanquished in the unconnected gloom,
            Shower frost,
Standing watch at dawn to pierce the morning
With an artic tempest,
Swirling ‘cross a land lost in fo...

A Cold Day

...I am flung against the drab ashen phonon sky, weighted with ghostly iron clad jaws of bitter winter's grip, biting the feather-flared Doves gravid with fatigue from the ill-laden onerous air.  The ro...

I Hear the Winter

...I hear the winter call my name
in syllables bereft of breeze,
ethereal through silent trees
hypnotic in their leafless maim.

In sheerest blue of morning freeze
the shadows drape from rimy limb...

A Feral Frozen

...Ursus Maritimus ...

I entered your world in quietude, slipping through the granular, soft.
          Long slats to feet parting the frozen. Cold of a previously unknown
     Extreme, nipping...

Icicles Sparkle

...Icebound winters stay freezing cold.
Caress the heart and free the soul.
Icons of winter amazement,
Chilling since mankind lived, ancient.
Luscious lights, a lovely dreamland.
Endless wonder spa...

Winter's Doorstep

...Bleak
Gray day,
Biting breeze
Offers portent
And tumbles autumn’s harvest of sere leaves
To winter’s foreboding, icebound doorstep:
Stacked, stands cordwood,
Shovels wait,
First snow
Looms....

Wicked Afloat

...WICKED AFLOAT


                     He asails the Irish dawn-- avidly tore a hole in yellows
     She in dreams --awaits his eyes blue-cast amidst the ice fog-- eagerly searches
Other maddened icebo...
