In his seething silence, I spoke, softly to him,
“Did I desire once to be higher than you, oh seething heart?
Could I, in my human flesh, sympathize for your imminent demise?
Cradling you in my sorrows, as...

The Maintop Balladeer

Smooth Road
I stare at the stark darkness ahead,
My hands squeeze the steering wheel
While a simple trepidation musters its way to my heart
The road is long, my headlights keeping shadows in check
I see the smooth path, intrigued...

He Walks No More
He walks the moonlit moor,
With eyes all aglow,
Hunting down his next victim,
Bringing death unto us all.
His ears are perked up,
Listening to the sounds,
That fill the night sky,
From the bats to faint footsteps,
And horses neighing in...

Rungs of Hope
Life keeps going to find his purpose
he strolls across verdant plains and trudges up the hills
sometimes dejection follows rejection and distress
darkness engulfs
and something spooky emerges
looming large to form something horrid…
a hideous hunchbacked hiatus.
Life slows...

And all the cities, towns and country in-between

Gum trees standing tall amid the scorching sun.
Home for Christmas day, each and every one.

Accepted our invite to share lunch once more.
Each year on Christmas day he joins us,...

A menace stirs from its slumber, slinks from the shadows.

The Sparrow
He called it love and his captivating way,
She called it fear and longed for the day.
All alone she cried those bitter nights,
While he ran around to his hearts delight.

There's Nothing In the Night Like the Sound of the Wind
When all the land is in repose
There is a noise, as nightfall shows,
A noise to stir the sinews of your mind.
And those who hear it at its best,
(Who know its sound, as others rest)
May...

He is the one who walks upon it.
Hallowed...from the sacrifice that passed it on.
Home...from infant life that still reposes
in the body. There, it will entreat
with that fair eloquence the body politic
employs--all torn from old...

Throws off his vest and kicks off his shoe-
He falls down onto the bed.

Mallee Rain
A twisting whirly musters
hard baked leaves and bark.
There’s another red sunset,
just before it’s dark.
The wilting wattles weep,
and plea ‘I can’t live on!’
The strong keep fighting drought.
The weak, soon dead and gone.
Wheat fields and their bounty,
wither...

Reflections: A Lonely Life of Death
The heart and mind meld this time
I would that I bleed, not cry
Bleeding tells them my body hurts
Crying reveals my heart and soul hurt
The tree of life is uncertain and short
Season in; season out, my...

to rest tenderly near her side

From which he was placed to lay and hang

Watch the Snowflakes Fall
Watch the Snowflakes Fall
I am dazed
As I stand beside my window
And watch the snowflakes fall.
I am struck
The sudden changes in the air
And beauty of it all.
I see white
Patterns when with their playful dance
Form drifts out...

Licking of the Wounds
I recline in gentleness
to view the harvest moon
rising in a Maxfield Parrish sky
My heart, my soul
floods with feelings of longing
that the daylight hours
deny.
A restless sadness, a discontent
that beauty often musters
A gentle breeze, a...
