Mid Spring
MID-SPRING
It is mid-May,
Mid the welcome of spring’s changes all
Over the norther hemisphere;
Amid still growing joy with strolls through
Parks and fields, admiring the all
Of after Winter,
And here, still growing in our own ways,...

Christowarner Dot Com
For diverse ranged interests, in prose and paint, speech annoted by body, frisbee
aflight or as busking bowl.
Writing poetry, sitting or standing, thought on title, concept craving to be told,
calligraphy ink to unlined leaf.

The Disappearing Self
On plateau, the view is everywhere,
and makes the body stretch to meet it.
Something calls, beyond the railroad
far away, beyond the storm clouds over there.
And in its shy defining, there is restlessness.
The earth is waiting for...

Jimmy
She sits alone in a darkening car,
waiting for Jimmy, a soccer star.
He's taking longer these days, it seems;
but he's one who gets tangled in his dreams.
Her neighbor sees her, asks if she's going in
just waiting...

Inklings of Spring
Winter finally moves his lumpen sluggish weight,
Spring is like a shy dryad shivering in his arms
Wind's whippets droop to trifling whine
Sullen rain hisses to a grizzle.
tiny fruit buds swell enough to moisten lips.
First daffodil maidens...

The Valentine Muse
If discipline be righteous let me stray but for a while
And beg the Fates indulgence on the morrow
For surely cruel as fate can be
There's kindness in the breast for he that
Strays in ways gods...

Hearts Aflight
I'll always love my bonny girl
So fair and lovely, beautiful
I'll always dream of her and I
And write her name up in the sky
With a little airplane, orange and white
That doesn't reach too great a height
But...

Bouncing
A rhythm on repeat
Exhaustion heavy
Impossible to admit defeat
Nor to succumb to the pain
Winner is not a title for the weak;
Every action with immense prudence
Adrenaline surging

I Love You
No matter how the wind blows,
As long as you're here I feel like time slows.
In my heart this love overflows,
Your name that's etched in my heart still glows.
I don't want to spend a lifetime with...

Heart Awakening
I met a man the other day
He really takes my breath away
His wit is quick
His smile delights
His spirit sends my heart aflight
I think he knows what I feel
It's hard to tell, his lips are sealed
I'd...

Aflight In the Hale Bob
AFLIGHT IN THE HALE-BOB
The puzzle comes apart deep in the sky;
calls nothing that is concrete to the mind;
as far as we can tell and meets the eye
the reason for the tail's not ours to find.
We...

The Meeting
It was a day like no other
ethereal was the feeling in my soul
my longings knew no border
as hope soared in a thousand fold.
The rendevous pointed out
to the dot of 'i'
the fine print sorted out

Dragon Eyes
Darkly glancing dragon eyes
Dancing pools of fiery light
Sparkling gems witched from the skies
Emerald, pearl, and ruby bright
Opal, sapphire, amethyst
Coyly blend their crystal beams
Diamond spheres by heaven kissed
Doorways to a thousand dreams
Wild -- undreampt since Ancient...

All Alone, I Stand In the Crowd
All alone, I stand in the crowd.
All aground, I travel the oceans.
All adrift, I'm stuck in the bog.
All afresh, I'm back in the stale memories of a wasted past.
All aflame, I freeze in the...

A Sonnet For Reckless Abandon
The sun in the sky drew my attention
I gazed into it like my lover's eye
The moment was perfect for retention
And I could do naught but just watch and lie.
Then daydreams took hold and I was...

The Crying River
Touch the rising mist of cherry smiles
Herald cries of joyous miracles aflight,
Echo brisk allure of God’s spearing light
Cry in the bosom of Abraham’s seed
Refrain the ways of fame and greed;
Yield to peace though hate overrules
Intimidate...

Come Back, Come Back Home
A DISTANT LAND YOU SEEK

A BITTER PAIN OF WORTHLESS GAIN
NOW YOU STAND AWRY WITH SHAME
AND MAIMED
LOST IN AN ISLAND OF AN ANCIENT...

Gossamer Display
She glides in splendour along the fields
with orange lace on rafters,well-hued
by fragrant air as her waltzes roam
to dazzle boughs thrilling a night's mood.
On fancy tones, her music drools
in rhythmic shimmer of wings aflight
and she draws...

But a Love Now Long Gone
One summer’s eve in Spain,
I fled through an open window,
Butterflies aflight
In the very pit of me,
And I tramped the streets,
My heart abrim
With such a love,
But a love now long gone.
With my final matches,
I forged a...
