Memories of my father
Bring forth the autumn walks.
Shades of nature on the crunchy leaves
At the man-made lake down the hill
From the little white house

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
sailing along with the moon in your eyes
Following dreams found to make your heart quiver
with tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly

Rough Landscape
In my mind the landscape of Guernica features high on the many
crowbars to unmask that inner prison of conscience and humanity
So many scenes of destruction with no predominant hierarchy of evil

A Strange Wedding Cake

This is real strange, I must say.

Focusing more on beguiling schemes,
Instead of compassion, empathy, consciousness, or...

A cake decoration within the frosting

Each planet and star

Crazy Rhyme
A rhyme in time
Should surely not be full

Otherwise what's the point
Of bringing up the very point
in the first place
Might as well just talk to the wall
And call a cab
Without ever knowing where

Christmas Magic
Cold shimmers the frost in midnight moonlight.
Holding fast to joyous thoughts, the child sleeps
reveling in thoughts of sugar dusted dreams.
In her world they are visions only,
so close, so real but always in her mind.
