Mother's Smile
by Michael R. Burch
There never was a fonder smile
than mother's smile, no softer touch

and know she loves you more than "much."
So more than "much, " much more...

First They Came For the Muslims
First they came for the Muslims
after Martin Niemoller
First they came for the Muslims
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Muslim.
Then they came for the homosexuals
and I did not speak out
because I was...

Distances
by Michael R. Burch
Moonbeams on water?
the reflected light
of a halcyon star
now drowning in night...
So your memories are.
Footprints on beaches
now flooding with water;
the small, broken ribcage
of some primitive slaughter...
So near, yet so far.
A Surfeit of...

Cleansings
Cleansings
by Michael R. Burch
Walk here among the walking specters. Learn
inhuman patience. Flesh can only cleave
to bone this tightly if their hearts believe
that God is good, and never mind the Urn.
A lentil and a bean might...

when express benevolence enjoins the ultimate in empirical assessment ...

Such Tenderness, For the Mothers of Gaza
Such Tenderness
by Michael R. Burch
for the mothers of Gaza
There was, in your touch, such tenderness—as
only the dove on her mildest day has,
when she shelters downed fledglings beneath a warm wing
and coos to them softly, unable...

The Color of Laughter
I was in a love affair with art, which had lasted for most of my life,
As beauty graces bush tree and field, whenever hued blossoms are rife.
I started painting at a young age, and had...

From Dawn's Spirited Breath, See Red, Red Rose
(1.)
From Dawn's Spirited Breath, See Red, Red Rose
When Summer rose meets dawning's sweetest hush
Sun comes to bequeath its dawn bathing rays
Red beauty gleaming, rose stills early rush
Into man's world shines, another bright day.
With red rose...

A Lovers Lulluby
There was a time when I would dream
In nights with peace, and starry gleam
I’d close my weary eyes and gently drift away
into a sweet and heavenly scene, I lay
I’d say a silent prayer...

Sublime
Lost in the world ,
where i used to live,
standing near the sea,
on the cliff.
The heavy tides ,
slapping hard on rocks,
as if trying to make them stop,
make them stop from dying,
like they did,
stop them to fall...

The Man in the Street
Watch out, watch out for the man in the street
Who is finding a voice that you don’t want to hear.
Before, they were always the sheep that don’t bleat
And for too long,...

A special sunlight, ruling

Wisteria
Oh how this bodice is dressed in taffeta,
Lined with hundreds of lavender pleats
Spiraling, drooping, whirling
All over my voluptuous contour …
Bare these limbs grinding on soft moss
To tap among rustled displays
From many a lovers’ heat to...

Peace
1 To hate means not to understand.
For fight one side needs to be blind.
The rightful judge cannot withstand,
To be by mildest hate defined.

A blind policeman on the road.
So to...

Old Shoes Record the Road of Life
Life’s road is never straight,
instead the directions senseless;
a twisting, turning labyrinth
of adventures and challenges.
It wears down the spirit,
more than the shoes.
Dangers faced with support
can breed courage.
The road walked alone,
can harden the...

Loving Lies
Mother perceived my tender years
Could not abide life's harsh facts.
She hid them from my eyes, ears
With lies woven of loving acts.
When our elderly neighbor died
I happened on a hearse at his home.
She said it would...
