Which has its start about nine months before 
After an instant of joy or of  venture,

When seed of man is reaching up its score
In the twisty...

When he agreed, his neck I held and climb;
And he waited for proper time and place,
And when the wings were open at the prime,

He clutched the hairy ribs with strong embrace;
From fleece to...

I gaze out the window of my soul,
Scanning a distant horizon where dreams and reality intertwine,
Seeing patches of ethereal clouds,
Drifting across the vast expanse of the blue sky.
I am bound for a realm called Insanity,
To...

Lost beneath the mantle of ancient trees
On crumbling road I hope will lead to you
Cold and weary, near falling to my knees
By lantern light, the world is painted blue

Searching for hours to find a sign...

Silence, my loyal companion, enfolds me
in the embrace of solitude’s sanctuary,
where words dare not tread, forsaking her.
With vacant eyes, she wields a brush
and paints a portrait of the deity forlorn,
narrating tales without the need for...

I can see the past glory, though it is humble now and all the more reverent....


With thoughts of deep ocean bliss,
that comes with fading hope,
I walked along the tide line,
no longer able to cope.

Life is only to be this much and nothing more
Learn to simply forget those memories unnecessary to recall
Unforgiving is time to bid one’s undesired sorrows to end
Embrace the feelings taught less to enable oneself to...

Dew, to Dawn, to Dusk, to Dust: (pause)
A sacred cycle turns while love endures.

The clouds kiss me from above, the sun caresses,  
I am a son of the steppe,  
Do not call my chest hollow or empty.

Time's natural spaces,
a universe of footprints in remembered places.

Need kicks me in the ass 
and head.
Trauma iafterflows,
undertows,
crashing carnage 
with runaway horsepower.

Want is a branching step,
coincidentally left-producing and right-consuming
memory footprints on Earth's beach of time,

Leaves, dancing, elegant
Hues of amber, gold and scarlet
Whispering light over the soul
Listening, soft flow of hope

Psalms, comforting, solace
Alive with breathless wisdom
Peering through naked branches
Oaks and maples, undressed by the 
Whimsical winds, promising
Inspirations, abiding in the...

Whispering wings ~ feathers afloat,

   Molting and marvelous, magnanimous

      Wonders, alighting in familiar places.

Each feather remembers the warmth,

Goodbye, Odie

My little old cat is dying.
His steps are awkward, eyes unfocussed
and he cries when he can’t see me.
I’m not sure I want to be in a world
that doesn’t have my tabby Familiar.
I am feeling...

i watch you sleep
wondering where you are
the hair
falls down to the cheeks
spilling upon the pillows
moon intrudes
throwing shadows around
our cat stirs
your mouth is slightly open
as if you are about to whisper
i hear the violins leap in...

In the cosmic ballet, where celestial lights gleam,
I whispered your name, in a voice soft as steam.
The moon's tender cradle, a swing for our feet,
We danced through the heavens, in rhythm so sweet.

Summer nights unfurled,...

There was a sickly tree

In a barren clearing

In a burning country

On a mourning day.


A wild crown of branches

Haloed by concentric rings;

A rising wave of spires and spindles lashing at the air;

Prismatic infernos leaping forth from...

Happiness, where is your dwelling in the ancient hideaway?
Like a mantra of light murmured under the parchment of silence,
Like a dream springing from the mystery of the ephemeral void,
Darkness of forgetfulness enfolds you, you vanish...
