Tench
There is a water glint,
just shining through the copse beyond.
Autumn's sinking sun,
barred by spindle trees and the last
of summer's brindled reeds
and sedge and rush that fringe this stilling pond.
.
Damp leaves hide...

Fortifications and Apple Squash
10 parsnip street, thought carrot. Elongated places in wisdom curves. Aromatic spices on compounds and a dramatic twirl from a very energetic spoon whose primary existence is to perform backward flips at many dinner parties....

Her Torn Leg
Frustrated.
Slowed down.
Cramped.
Angry.
Rehab was slow going.
One tiny mistake.
And she could not walk.
For two months now.
So angry at self and leg.
One bad fall.
Bruised bone.
Torn meniscus.
Torn ACL.
Frustration level high.
Exercises were boring.
Bicycle hard at first.
A bit easier later,
but boring.
Mark,...

Wellspring of life born

Gaseous brew forms
Invisible elixir -
A breath of fresh air

Destructive, cleansing
But giver of warmth and light –
Fire’s dual perspective
Act 2: Plant
Leaf

A Lament For How It No Longer Is As It Used To Be
It is my knee
It no longer is as it used to be
I used to be able to jog, bike, and run on cross country skis
Teach yoga for many years; do yoga on my own
Where ever...

The Rehearsal
Today I stopped waiting.
I had promised distance.
I never break promises,
but this time,
it was survival.
I ranted a little,
accused a lot,
a disgusting manipulation,
for I must sew the seed,
the opposite of love.
So I am cut off,
I am...

Anytime
I comprehend the days when rays do shine and Ra does set
When inner soul and façade connect, 24 hours in one day gave me breathe, that’s 1,440
seconds closer to death rather than oxygen...

Nowhere the slushy mud caked into strands of crunchiness

Jack, Johnny, and Me(Repost)
So sad are days in this bitterness
and bitterest cold outside
Gone are friends and leaves
and grass.
The walls are mocking me, laughing
I can feel me hating me with a passion
This is one of those dark days

Words float about within

I Do Not Like This Growing Old
I do not like this growing old; no, not one bit.
I much prefer how things were when I was
Younger, say 40 or 50 at a pinch.
Back then, things worked and moved
Without complaint, and...

Optical Illusion
My slumbered eyes in endless night hours
make shady groves of translucent memories.
Outlining contour of crescent moon,
dark figures meander my muffled thoughts.
The starry sky suddenly changes
from turquoise blue to champagne color...

The Butterfly and Me
THE BUTTERFLY AND ME
Venus butterflies
tiptoe upon roses rise
playful in pirouette,
they tango
with the singing voice
of a clarinet...
Wouldn't this view

Swarm of honey fragrance
fans my cheeks and so my hair,

I had bruised the bone too
