Sweet Little Marigold
She was a dairymaid, oh so sweet;
many a year ago.
Her figure was trim, her hair was neat,
with ringlets tied up in a bow.

the turkeys and chickens, and even...

The Fear
7/19/2019
This darkness is all I know,
a widow's wardrobe of funeral clothes.
It hangs curtained under my eyes,

Be still and know
He stills the moments, as my heart rests
Soothed, comforted, blessed
He colors my dreams, my hopes, my prayers

Healing, easing, stirring
A breathless wind,...

Reconnoitred, the foe's dispositions have been noted,
quantified, assessed. The forces of order

The Man From Marrawah
To Melbourne town he took the ship, the man from Marrawah,
to take in all the city sights, he'd never seen before.

Sometimes I feel boredom settling in like dust,
Shrouded in the island of a single thought-
Works to be done and lying unfinished.
