SEA WANTS ME
SEA WANTS ME

a point with paddle board
to soar sanguine Seas
I know not whether I’m
merman or beach sand speck

Odyssey From Africa 6c
CHAPTER 6 (continued, c)
Several of the primate children
Sat together in the branches
Of a tree; they did not notice
Danger silently approaching
Through the leaves a brown and yellow
Shiny scaly serpent slithered
Closer to the young gorillas
Eyes unblinking glimmered...

To What End
I waited
Under the outspread foliage
Of the banana tree,
With ripening fruits dangling precariously,
Wondering,
With eyes set on the earth,

Vindicate My Search
To be clear;
Once you were not real;
But my God had you created from my illusion;
What I desired but never experienced,
My thoughts were for you
Whom I did not know; a ghost;
I knew what...

A Cup Runneth Over
When I hear the chirping of bizarre birds in the morning,
And see the sun gently rising; golden rays adorning;
And feel the graciousness of the almighty upon me,
Who, by his abundant mercy, gave me a day...

Earth Is Gift
A brilliant, wide rainbow bent over a stone in the creek.
A jealous breeze carries the suppressed echo from the caves.
White blossoms inspire the soul when it begins to feel bleak.
Purple flowers draw in...

I find myself sometimes inside the guise of a boy
And I find myself a while engulfed in all...

Time, with all its waxing and waning
Its swelling and...

Silent Shadows On the Snow
Night's silent shadows softly fall
from moonlight's muted, mellow glow,
that shroud the land with sunless shawls
on cold ground glazed with glinting snow.

An Ordeal To Be Forgotten

My vented heart speaks to you today,
Help me forget the terrible bygones;
The misfortunes of a young girl,
The pain that she felt
In the coercion of another’s body’s act,
Her screams that were wasted
In crying out for...
