I was dedicated to such adorable patients, and they soon responded in kind;

Hangover
A dreaming man in the state of REM
sees the dream as a reality
rivers of thoughts like sparkling gems
reveling in his new found sanity.

Tsk Tsk, Task Nearly Thwarted
Mary Lou Sims was young and enterprising, like stars routing dark;
Or mauve dawn on the verge of discovery, awaiting time's remarks.
Mary Lou's best friend was Cora Mann, ever since sweet childhood;
When they'd sat in zesty...

the poetic feet of Robert Frost)

awash with dynamic harmonic leisureliness,

visual whirled wide webbed watercolor
waiting afield...

To explore some water,
the task at hand.
To escape temps getting hotter
By treading lake instead...

Some Distant Shore
Silent, she slips from her stronghold’s security,
safely tucked high on the cliff in her nest.
Cautious, she stays in the shadows afforded her,
sorrowful, hesitant, missing the rest.
Her parents and siblings had sought out the sunshine,
flying the...

Must Give Us Pause

in Nature’s laws—

with no applause—
and seas of troubles flee
when life withdraws,
then how we choose to plumb
the waters deep…
or whether dreams may come
in final sleep
need never...

PASSION UNFETTERED

Jealously gazing at the eyes of lovers brimming with expectation,
But something stays frozen-- in disjointed time,
Afraid if the precocity of love is...

In the Meadow
Two travelers with different destinations, we met before our paths diverged,
and in that span between our first encounter and subsequent farewell,
we read in one another’s eyes a wanderlust that took us off our track.

Who Would Have Known
8/15/12
A hope, a light within a spike
Of darkness dropping slowly
Aching for the lonely, yet happily
I find myself spinning with you
In a world of my own—childhood blooming
Laughing and twisting,
Climbing and falling,
You’re a beautiful light that...
