Premium Member Compelled

I felt compelled within my spirit
Even though it's icy cold
To go out on the porch for just a minute
To enjoy the works of God

When the door I opened
Beauty and sound did surround
For the sun was rising in the distance
Flashing color all around

The mist was rising in the distance
From the creek down the way
The sky was ablaze in color
From red to pink then gray

The sun a fireball blazing 
So close to mother earth
With jet steaks of white cotton
Across the pale blue morning sky

The colors constant changing 
As slow as a clam opens its shell
The banks of colors awed me
Filled my spirit until it swelled

The roosters sang in unison
Their love for the miraculous show
The mist just kept on creeping
Till the pines and forest overflowed

Now the mist surrounds me
Chilling me to the bone
But I feel wrapped in God's 
Abiding love that comforts and upholds

There goes another jet streaking
Across the morning sky
The exhaust will add one more
Layer to the color of the sky'

To be able to capture in words
Or on a canvas fine
The beauty that I see
In God's loving hand divine

                                                         Tree
                                                  Named Braford
                                          Shaped like a Christmas Tree 
                                          Sets off at least two seasons
                                     One with white and the other with fire
                                  Spring blooms are beautiful and Fall puts on 
                              A great show but when one looks at winter closely
                          The Bradford's buds does surely show along side these
                        Are tiny little pears; Food for all the birds, to feed in winter
                      Snow, Who would have thought that the Bradford woud hold 
                       Hands with old Sweet Gum Joe, as they dance to the win-
                        Ter breeze and shiver in the cold two friends so different
                           They are love struck because they are so much the 
                              Same color, Their bright burgundy and gold so
                                 Looking like flaming touches one in yards
                                    The other is the wild, wild woods  so
                                            Far apart but in love are they
                                                  The birds and bees
                                                          Bear their
                                                              Love
                                                              Tales

Premium Member Remembering Willow Pond

Born of winter's snow and gentle spring rain
Remembering Willow Pond, where our dreams begin
Where wild geese swim, then fly away again
Beneath shaded coves, where other lovers have been

The fragrant smell of earth, green moss and peat
Where tangled grass and weeping willows lean
A crumbling bank, where cattails wash their feet
Our blanket spread upon the meadow green

Our campfire glows, playing flirting games
Ashes drift like feathers, smoke curls into the air
Burning embers, teasing flickering flames
And love smolders warm, a kiss in the evening fair

Trees sway and swoon along the bank
Leaves flutter in gentle evening wind
With each breath of warm summer breeze
It brushes my cheek, as daylight ends

Willow pond, the place where love came alive
We loved....under the stars of the twilight skies

Flowers

Within this simple garden
So many flowers bloom,
Displaying colored banners;
Inviting love anew

Be wary as you travel
Past countless painted hues,
For every blossom beckons,
Yet only one you'll choose

Some harbor thorn and thistle
Beneath their slender stems,
Appearing soft and harmless
Until you reach for them

Some feign to be so friendly
And smile up at the sun,
But hide their yellow faces
When wrathful storm is come

Still others shine and sparkle
To capture you with awe,
But at the season’s ending
You will find only straw

And yet there is one flower
That differs from the rest;
It stands alone and waiting
In search of love that’s best

If you can see her standing
Amid deceitful forms,
Bend low to pick this treasure –
A flower with no thorns.

Premium Member Like All Good Creatures

Like all good creatures
I kept hidden.
I noticed the flashes through the leaves
As response to my own mating stench; 
My love for seeds in a garden.
My mother was the symbol of evaporating kindness.
Her fear was the same as mine,
That we would lose our love for fellow animals and it
Would limp out of our lives as she limped out of mine
From a lion. It was a blur, a red blur...
Oh, crescent moon! May my self-tombing in the belly of your tree
Not resound through your ear as lack of empathy.
My dream for this landscape is a world filled with water.
That we should be forced to help each other,
A paddler with a paddler, in the symphonic lap-lap of water's harmony.
Quack-quack. Lap-lap. Quack-quack.
