Yellow Winged AngelI.
He was patient very-very
with child's tenderness in eyes
yellow winged angel's unwary,
He was living quiet in skies.
Without disputes, without roughness,
without want to weep and moan,
He was dreaming among heartless

and listened for the notes
her mother had planted
amongst the deep blues,

Regret

ache to bear...
once starlight
languished

"The Sleeper and The Supernaturalist"
The Sleeper

in the moonlight
unaware
the innocent
red-caped roses stared
the trees whispered,
"beware, beware"
barefoot softly
the Supernaturalist
transfigures instead
from under shine

One DayOne day not so long ago
I walked
Never alone
