Pardon

Oh wow a mystic meaning manifesting majestic majorities. In a purple eclipse. In a towel hung geometrically on a towel rail. Hum then. Queues upon queues of geometricians on hoops. Linguistic lingering then. Leaping. 1...

Freedom Rings

Roundup lassoes, swinging
Roping stars of wide open country
Sweetheart moon is swooning
Cowboy smiles wrangling darlins
Tobacco spitt’n anywhere the varmint wants

Yellow taxis the color of the sun
Brighten the slate gray egregious city
The pace of walkers as short
Or...

My Pen Pleads

My pen pleads 

Lonely nights offer moments of silence
and one dish suppers where candlelight seems a waste
Seated with pen in hand, I smooth the ruffles beneath
as if that will help the words flow

Upon closer inspection...

Change

(A Paul Callus co-write) 

The tempest came from nowhere; it took me by surprise
The wind and drawling thunder tried hard to quell my cries.
The darkness felt so heavy, my heart dejected, blue
Then light, all of...

Unexpected Joy

My life was droning along, quite monotonously
like a tired, worn-out song... drawling endlessly

Then one day it happened- two whole lives affected
a simple letter was penned, something unexpected

The letter said “How 'bout it? Can we write...

Turning Blaze, Response To John Fleming and Ye All

Am I from thine amity pleas'd,
So tell thou how in me eris'd
Of Joy the sorrow and the dawn,
Of Beauty mistery and frown:

'Tis sung in here the sighing sail,
The waves,the sea- forsake!
Will ever rest the Foaming...

Shivers

Wintry night, the clouds were churning
While the lightning lit the sky
The old house it shook and trembled 
As the howling wind went by.

I put out the waning candle
Total darkness all around
It felt cold, in bed...

One Against Many

One against many

A peace campaigner,
Anti war protester,
Brian Haw U.K. Cristian
Dedicated to his beliefs,
His rectitude a mirror,
People of opposition 
How could ever bear,
The One against many !

Blue plaque erected,
His death marks an end
To a historic enterprise,
As...

These Butterfly Kisses

THESE BUTTERFLY KISSES
 
I cannot tell what happened
But I heard somebody telling me:
 
“They vanished in thin air”

“My butterfly kisses are broken wings”
 
“I know no butterfly kisses”

Yes! They told me like this:

I am Petal from rosebud secondary,
I...

Black and White

To mix the two together only brings gray. Battling persona. Never on cue.
For one’s never certain, which facade debuts.

Dark finely feathered, filled with lustful charades 
Hides behind a notion of monogamous filled days

Graceful creature. Godly...

Watching

This drawling, heinous war is sapping the soldiers’ strength. 

I perceive of which high above the battlefield.

These rivers, fresh, indispensable rivers, flow red with hate and blood.

And your words, saying that it will soon end,...

Mountain Mist

A cloudy blanket sheaths the peaks, 
Wrapped in blue, they look enthralling, 
Emerald trees behold the sight! 

Milky river of mist like creeks
flows overhead this scene sprawling, 
What a magical view and bright! 

Here is...

Winter Scene

Soft snowflakes falling, winter comes calling, 
Wind shakes the pine trees, snowman's time to freeze, 
Birdsong's enthralling, cardinal's drawling;

Lamppost lights the way, houses silent stay, 
Cold nights, brumal breeze plus minus degrees, 
The snowman can't...

Reunion

In my memories he is a boy,
a wonder without pretense,
without fear or doubt.
He foolishly laughed,
painless jubilation infecting every muscle.
And how he spoke –
the drawling, rhythmic swagger
between drooling letters.
Without a care for the world
he swept the...

Left Undone

We thought we had forever
So much left undone
A trip to New York City
And drawling 101

You had so much left to teach me
I had so much more to learn
How can you be gone
When all I want...

Halloween Night

All day long the clouds lay hanging
thick and gloomy in the sky.
Night approached. The wind was restless;
it gave out a ghostly cry. 

Eerie lights blinked in the darkness,
shadows dancing in between.
It was chilly, thunder drawling.
What...
