Midnight At Blackfriars
Midnight at Blackfriars
The city spires are hidden,
It’s getting colder fast,
It feels as though we might have
Some snow this month at last.
The wind sweeps keenly through St. Giles(1)

A Tribute To My Comrade Sisters
I am sitting down with my pen,
in a faraway land
For many days, I recalled my memories,
That faded with poor calories
I want to share the aesthetic childhood
spent in the lap of a maternal knighthood.
They are my...

The Passage
A young man’s walk was careful,
As he strode through the passage.
The walls were dotted with a red
That refused to be washed away with water.
The young man’s memory still pictured the fangs,
As they plunged into...

Out of the Box
The moment I am out of the box
Foxes and hyenas surround me
Needy greedy aggressive seekers
Those who even a second before
Lay hidden in hibernation
In the tightly closed boxes of steel
On the verge of elimination
Thanks to the...

Biking To Telegraph Hill
My bike was transportation; Mom didn’t drive
But sometimes I sped off on an adventure
To Telegraph Hill the miles were only five
Big sis and I made the ride a joint venture
What she didn’t know was the...

Once Upon a Time In Virtual Romance Land
Vast hollow hall, ambient glow entering slow on tiptoe
calls out “Hello! is anyone here?”
Door hinge swing--by sight unseen
peripheral movement from the rear--none appear
One soft nudge connects, then more come next
and next, and next
Voice excited,...

Desiring what is good, the day shall spell

My late morning run seem to go quite well
Although I felt...

Jalopy's Testimony
Witness to every notable trip
highlighting life and death travelogue strip
I can recount incidents bringing heart-rip
surpassing accidents of fatal engine oil drip
yet expressing to God thankfulness* midst blissful serenity-grip!
Once I served as an ambulance

The Sax's Sad Song
Regretfully, this is a true story;
Saturday- time for band rehearsal,
It's work we normally love to do,
But today was very different,
As I shall now tell you...

picks me up in early morn,
For our...

Agonizing Christmas Days
Agonizing Christmas days in the infirmary
There I was, vanquishing ailment-inflicted misery
Beseeching the Lord for miraculous victory*
While soberly pondering Emmanuel’s birth story
…marvelously wondrous in human history.
On his intensive care unit’s bed, ailing
Dad groaned in pain,...

MY BILOCATION PERSPECTIVE
I’m here, but I can be there in the spirit of joy's iridescence---
As my faith brings me to behold your triumphant presence.
I’m here, yet I can reach you from afar
Together, virtually, we watch the star.
I’m...

Couplet
Hide of Tyke in Hold
Heartthrob in damsel drag
Belief of human bile
Completely instilling cascading dregs of mechanical flesh, bones and spit
64th avenue
And coiling deft doom
Winged balls of bulging blood and speckled steel
Merry wails and flutters of moths unsealed
Fitted...

As a good girl, giving home no worry.

Sweet delights flavored with strawberry
Midst pies whipped...

Blues Music
Listening to the Blues
Slouched almost supine
Next to special person,
Her hand clasped in mine:
Mississippi picking,
Bottle neck used as a slide
St James Infirmary playing,
End of a long Blues ride.
Now a mouth harp break
Exhilaratingly raw,
Finger picking guitar
Carrying the...

The Leprechaun

Green-Browed Mountains
Seven days in the green-browed mountains
time slowly retreated to the horizon
sun casually took to the foreground
weather was always a foothill or two behind.
moon sighed into its gloaming.
Seven days inhaling green- browed mountains
wildflower sashayed into the...

Good Luck, Charlie

I don’t know what I’ll do

Maybe I’ll court a woman
