The Lakota Sioux tell a story about the sun and moon
which is ultimately a story about love…and loss…
about two tribes that lived on either side of a river…
a river they were forbidden to cross.
But one day a young girl from the moon tribe on one side of the river
and a young boy from the sun tribe on the other side…
saw each other and immediately fell in love…
a love they could not hide.
So, from each side of the river they both began to build a bridge…
and when it was was complete
on that bridge halfway across the river…the two young lovers would meet.
When the two tribes discovered this…
the two lovers were killed and their spirits sent away….
the spirit of the moon child was sent to light the night…
while’s the spirit of the sun child was sent to light the day.
But love is not so easily extinguished…not so easily marooned…
for there are moments when they share the sky
when the sun’s love illuminates the moon.
And if you’re lucky, as we were recently, to be there when they share the sky…
when their stars align….
from the moment they first see each other…you can see how their love shines.
And every now and then…though to us it may not seem like much…
If we’re lucky…during an eclipse…we see the two lovers touch…
When we see them smile or touch one another…then quickly part
We know their love is true…indeed
showing how sometimes when it comes to love…
a smile across the distance…
or a momentary touch
is all you ever need.
Giant Red Planet Mars: What's really going on?
Rumors are, there is someone other than I
They're hiding where I can't see if I try
Some say they’re pint-size, big heads, and huge eclipse black eyes
Never wearing a disguise
Some say they're green
Some say they’ve been seen
Have been found and hidden out of sight, long ago
People are horrified and mortify to say otherwise and forgo
Kidnaping earthlings
And transported to distant headings
Unknown
True or false, I don’t know
Who am I to say otherwise?
We just go with the flow and compromise
We can’t blow away rumors
Crawl away just because we’re late bloomers
What knowledge we possess is our own
We’ve never been shown
Are we prone to fear?
At things that we hear
On Mars surface,
Observed by countless boisterous
Rumors, three dome cities thought to be found
Capstone mound
Possible a pyramid buried deep underground
Landscape that could transform
Caused by windstorm
Does it have a connection with our Egypt’s pyramid forms?
Not a trick of the light and shadows from the stars
It’s really bizarre mystery of what constitutes the giant red planet Mars
Is someone else here on earth hidden where we can’t see?
Do we learn from them or go on our own way thinking we’re the only ones and let be

On the night of a cold moon's glare
golden ring around frozen particles kiss
your beam over and back carries one torch
Desires delight dances in kaleidoscopic diamonds
warm once more my heart with treasured warmth
in dreams of jewelled passion we drink from star's cup
Faraway wonder of this universe
circle of never ending hope dancing life's shadow
starry eyed reflections over sea's touch
Oh truth of truth your radiance comes once again
within an eclipse of desire we dance in Heaven
dreaming within your peaceful stars of glory that shine

i have touched a thousand suns
danced thru constellations infinite
lost myself wrapped in galaxies dreaming
tossed mercilessly from vortex to vortex
ran amok in meteoric showers across foreign skies
hidden in the eclipse shadows
pondered beneath the northern lights
in the purple-crimson sunsets
as quasars bore down on me
all of the glory the celestial heavens offer
none compare as watching the moonlight
softly in silence coming thru the window
gracing the face asleep next to me
a demanding volcanic lunacy
held in a breathless rapture
where time ceases
a vision escaping into eternity
the moon in its adoration
of the face asleep next to me

Eclipse begs beasts bays: Chaos and Havoc
as the scheming plots a clock, e'er so close.
Ill sprites hover and bobble ... spasmatic
entities let loose their suffering throes.
Screams and wails are a precursor outbreak
of the cavernous peel that the master--
is nigh--and that the hellish host bewake,
yond slithered pets whip, for the taskmaster.
Becalm, bestilled, beware forevermore,
whilst the knell toils its toll and the uncoiled
hast sprung a boy no more behind the door,
third strike's out a poise shadows earth, turmoiled.
Minute passage as minutes flash a fear,
fourth nil toil nexus whence hell domineer.
Eclipse
As two celestial bodies drift through space
with each one on a path their very own;
with one so near to show her lovely face;
the other far away yet brightly shown.
And as they wander down their cosmic trails,
it’s seldom that their random paths converge.
Yet now and then the fates will share their tales;
paths cross and heaven’s bodies seem to merge.
For one brief moment in their ageless lives,
this cosmic duo seemingly ‘come one,
and when the magic milestone does arrive,
they cast their shadowed spells on everyone.
And in this single moment etched in time,
this cosmic couple share a perfect rhyme.

Singing but not enjoying,
Multiple keys I'm employing,
My voice subject to cracking,
My range just isn't tracking!
"Joyful noise" a misnomer,
Unsettled noise of a roamer,
Turn down my volume a lot!
My contribution is naught.
Maybe no one noticed me...
I'd like to duck out quickly,
But onward with the rejoicing,
But now I'm not really voicing.
Self-consciousness takes over,
What I need is a voice-over.
Or, maybe that built-in playback?
Yeah, that inaudible soundtrack!
Playing flawless in my head,
The singing is Spirit-led.
I can hit any and all notes,
And match any and all throats!
Bocelli? Chuck Berry? Sure!
Such rejoicing I can endure.
I'll just move my silent lips,
And Voila! A playback eclipse!
"Lord, I hope you're OK with that?
My singing keeps falling flat!
The Spirit can sing with the best,
Through playback, my spirit finds rest!"
I crave for you like grass does in a drought,
My lips hunger for the taste of your lips.
I’ll love you forever don't ever doubt,
When we met, it was a full moon eclipse.
I ache for you when you are not with me,
You are my sunshine after a long night.
Being in your arms fills my soul with glee,
Your touch sends me high; a sensual flight.
Only you can quench my soul’s aching thirst,
Come to me, my love; satisfy this throb.
If you don't appease my desire, I'll burst,
Sweetheart, your soft kisses will do the job.
My darling, I lie here, my being shakes,
I need your cure; to rid me of my aches.

MINDFUL OF SOLAR ECLIPSE
He’s coming with his dark glasses
and dizzying smile
He’s stopping by for a minute or two
a minuet of manic joy
He covers the sun with his steady hand
she tingles with trepidation
Will she be blotted out from his employ
she wipes off sweat as he passes by
Merely a warning of end times
dark days of deepened sin
We watch with amusement
arm in arm on love boats
Standing in main line parks
finding the perfect spot
Would we find the perfect standing of our heart
a bond with the patient perfect God
When the cross covered the earth in darkness
men of old took note
When the stone rolled away from the sun
the eclipse was eradicated
Emblematic pain or joy of your soul
gaze up with future foretold

An unrhymed couplet
Strand’s Standard Contest NO 30
1st Place
The angels have abandoned their light
Eclipsing the heavens into a cauldron of ebony
As the stars flare while attempting their escape
From the lifeless blackened blanket invalidating existence
The Blood Wolf Moon suspends itself
As if the orb on Satan's scepter had escaped
And found itself wedded to an invisible source
Of this monstrous and infinite abyss
This empyrean gift deeply burned
In the darkest and most hidden hole of Abaddon
From its firmament of torment
Of human suffering's endless plight
Under this cosmic Raven mass
From a distance so close, but far and closing fast
Impeding on the sensibility of consciousness
Thwarting the evasion of all reality
The silence was suddenly shattered as demonic toads croak
In incessant and escalating voices
Like the perilous screeching of rubber on asphalt
As they rejoiced in this perfect extinction
While all else lay silent
