Long Onshore Poems

Spring's Excitement

that farms use to advantage! Time's fishermen sailed
both with tides and fair breezes offshore in their boats
at each dawn and dusk's onshore brought home each day's...

We cannot see love; 
We can only feel it nor touch it.
We see its affection through emotions
The beauty; it take thee to utopia onshore.
Being in ocean and feeling of cool wind.

It can go deep, digs...

I breathe deeply,
Take a long blank,
Look into the night sky,
Ironically clear as day,
I Inhale.
The air is heated,
Smoke rising,
Sirens in the distance,
I don't care,
I blur it all out,
I feel it ,
Seeping,
Into my very soul,
I feel the...

Once I had finally realized, that it had become a Pandora unto myself....

A portal of passage towards darkness' infiltering of...

It was quite a surprise to us
when monsters came out of the night,
the beasts and bad guys of legends
who for so long gave us a fright.

We thought they lived on movie screens,
pulpy books, and local...

no guard on duty

a sailing tailwind
in cerulean streams
through creamsicle colored beams -
are wings reflective of turquoise truth 
and white purity 
of Autumn’s ether -

she sat there with only one tear rolling alone to drip between her knees
Splattering on the tidal flow below.
Cross legged with ankles aching on wet jetty stone
Cold wet jetty stones gathered from God knows where
By...

The milk’s gone off today, I don’t know where it’s going
   It booked a cab to Stansted, then climbed aboard a Boeing.
He doesn’t have a passport, I’m sure he’ll be ejected

At one time it was said
From Hull to Valparaiso,
Or  any deep sea port
Any Mariner might know,
You could find a body who’d
Heard of the old Earl de Grey,

would that I could
pick up reception
of celestial transmissions
with a couple'a old soup can phones
and country miles of string
(would they have harp string ring tones?)
and ask the old man
about days long ago
interrupting his labors
tilling god's fecund green fields

that a polar bear mother gave birth to a roly-poly ball of fur,
in a den dug deep into a bank of snow...

A rare gem you are,
Even the stars wonder what you are,
As priceless as your name,
Yet you don't struggle for fame,
In the hands of the poor you make him rich,
Not everyone can stretch out for your...

Outbound calling is a given task.
Log in only in one website,he asked.
But this addiction don't know when would last.
this affecting my job,Oh no!

Dealling and mocking by American people.
Do I have...

Before us, the harbor unfurls its tapestry of lights, 
Serried jewels winking on numberless nights.
Onshore, they’re jostled in a million-starred galaxy,
Into the harbor they spill in a gleaming frenzy.
Neon tassels they are, shimmying on dark...

My father gone these forty years,
my mother gone twenty, I remember...
the acrid smell of tobacco on my mother’s rough fingers,
as she sat, silently, in a predawn Texas coastal town,
my head in her lap, the short-wave...

T' night after a peaceful bubbly sunset
And a well painted aftermath.
We 're about to stroll down 
Alongside the Alawai Canal 
Beneath aloha waving palm fronds
Carefully stepping around the biggest frogs
We've ever seen
At least twice the...

Couldn't have cared less, now I couldn't care more
Losing ego is unbecoming me
Setting small sparks in human hearts to soar

Naive and lost, I washed up onshore
Sowing seeds of wisdom across the sea
Couldn't have cared less,...

I tossed ten notes to anyone, out to sea. 
They were rolled up, tied with string and bottled.
Each one said: 
"Hello, Hi Anyone! Tell me your name!". 
"Also let me know the date, and when...

White evanescent waves roll on the shore
     with such felicity of frothy bliss.
Rhapsodic sounds explode as they explore;
     present the waiting beach their foamy kiss.

Above, the dulcet...

Time is born to unstoppable walk, unknown towards
End of summer, wandering now thru the fall season

Early autumn, the first month of tranquiller breeze
Blowing onshore winds west to the east touching all

Corn moon of the late...

I wake to trill of colored leaves
The fall of last night's dreams,
An onshore breeze whose movements
Please and cool my restless schemes.

With one hand cradling your head
My other hand is roaming free
I float in evening's meadow...
