Back in the day, a dashing young officer with a brilliant red uniform he...

There Winter Lonely Fallows Deeply Dream


Long after that ripe golden sunset gleam
Cool silvery tones, wavering light;
Then winter lonely fallows deeply dream
Into the grayish ghostliness of night.

Far off, yet looming bold and strangely near,
Within starry heavens...

Can't seem to get off to sleep tonight, thoughts buzzing around my old head,
It's dark and quiet, the cat has gone out and the street lights have gone out too,
The odd car passes by maybe...

The road leads to old windmill 
Soul like grain is processed by the mill
The very presence of the mill
Surreal will make you feel

The orb is like science filled dream
Beautiful and bizarre crystal forms create waves...

I paint all my sorrows and I leave the real world with a brush stroke
I gently gather all my being to overcome the boundaries of reality

The time is early spring
The glacier melts into a fresh spring
The birds in the forests begin to sing 
The magpie in her nest puts found by her golden ring

The spring turns into a stream and...

will find its line.And without trying...

As March sets in people are eager to work in their rural gardens and fields,
The earth turns up fresh and mellow and there is beauty in its very blackness,
Flowers are fast springing in the boarders,...

On the other ocean to which the river will fall
By the curve...

In midnight gazes call me sullen upon my cheek
Rousing replies risen bound by chains 
Lest mercy be tallowed by all frays 
Lest my cheek rise by an untimely hour
Rid my face of discoloured honour
Until it...

Their wings below the wavy crowns of trees,
Where slabs of stone adorn a path and blend
Their way across a kingdom owned by bees. 

Across the waterfall, a house of stone
Stands...

Sigourney’s Perfection

A sequestered home
A wife, a husband
A doctor, the dinner guest
A gun. This the cast.

Friendly banter fallows introductions.
Lawyer husband talks shop.
Doctor politely responds to coffee,
Wife goes to kitchen, listening.
Doctor quotes a poet’s line.
Wife freezes in...

 The shadows have taken all that come near me
for I live in the dark
where once I dwelled in the light

the darkness that lived inside me
has now become...

The breadwinner of many homes is what we grow
Here comes another winter, around forty below
Watch out...

I may not live long enough
But I'll try
All I've penned and will do
Will serve me bye and bye
As I traipse through time
Pass friends and shadows
Stopping to scribe about 
Freaks and fallows

Remembering remembrances
Lilting moments, spinning dances
Finding...

Sunflower like hope’s beacon
All day fallows the sun
Down the golden fields of grain children run
Splashing in the lake they have fun

Hummingbird from sunflower drinks nectar that is sweet
He spends more time in air then on...

Egyptian Vulture meets a Lion
Like a king of all beasts looks that lion
Lion says fallow me
And I’ll set you free

But beware of the snake he is
That which will keep you from enjoying my bliss

Young traveler always searches the unknown
Always looks under every stone
Fallows the path that summer wind has blown
He has great knowledge even if he is alone

Even if he is caged his soul is always free
He knows...
