Snapshots
by Michael R. Burch
Here I scrawl extravagant rainbows.
And there you go, skipping your way to school.
And here we are, drifting apart
like untethered balloons.
Here I am, creating "art,"
chanting in shadows,
pale as the crinoline moon,
ignoring your face.
There...

Azure Vistas
"Azure Vistas"
Azure vistas presented themselves to me
rolling inwards the clouds like tumbleweeds
mercilessly bump fallen angels off the map
like torrents of rain falling petulantly on blunt contracts
I glimpsed the sweet refrain of a resurrection
swift upon a...

Because You Came to Me

Because you came to me with sweet compassion
and kissed my furrowed brow and smoothed my hair,

but wildly, in despair.
Because you...

Completing the Pattern
by Michael R. Burch
Walk with me now, among the transfixed dead
who kept life’s compact and who thus endure
harsh sentence here?among pink-petaled beds
and manicured green lawns. The sky’s azure,
pale blue once like their eyes,...

Spineless In the Running
Was this a bold endeavour or worst-case high risk plot?
In one sense I was caught between two poles apart concerns.
One must never underestimate indeed trivialise a devilish
difficult decision.
A decision that may...

standing where my boat lay moored

her azure eyes beckoned me to come

Her small angelic face ...
Once a place where broad smiles bloomed like butterflies on marigolds,
is streaked with the furrows that countless tears have etched into the
layers of dust and dirt and explosive residue that now...

In the silky night, dotted with mystery
In the silky night, dotted with mystery,
Where the moon's thread weaves shadows on the paths,
The heart, a thin garment, a flash in the ether,
Listens as the time from the hourglass seeps away,
And its rhythm, a...

A Museum Ap-Art
I'd risen from my bed quite early, in the pale silent sunshine,
And I thought to have a day out, and not waste summer's prime.
The world still was sleeping, but the bluebirds sang a tune,
And blooms...

"Heart"
Deep fissures formed
in the cracks of
the nowhere place
where time leeched
bleeding claret
through the green
veined blues
protean bit by bit
the flesh disappears
prematurely 6ft under
mulch for rebirth
the subcontinent
conscientious conscience
inward reaching
the divine central tableau...

Taken By the Wind
I was out one day walking, along the glad sounding shore,
Gathering pretty seashells, and watching the seagulls soar.
To the left were lofty mountains, touching the azure skies,
To the right, sparkling ocean, and ahead the butterflies!

The Lily Maid of Astolat
The knight of knights, Sir Lancelot,
From far away in Camelot,
Went by a way that he knew not
And thus, by chance, spied Astolat
With sunset's gleam upon her tow'rs:
T'was there he met the maid Elaine,
With hair as...
