They did not use Reid Gibson that kindly
as they drove him swiftly on up the trail,
when he fell behind or misunderstood
the two would both strike him without fail.

Goodnight Rome
Goodnight to our Rome with all your garrisons
and your streets that have become
as loveless as empty barracks.
For you I will never weep.
After all,
your Senators
Who made the deals
To keep the last
Last
And the first bored
and lost in...

One day while wan’dring far afield 
I heard a tortoise shriek 
“Oh, curse this shell, infernal cell…
I haven’t got all week!”

I dropped down low, I snuck up slow 
then spied him through the brush

Where are they now?
Why is there so much dust
Over a fillet of memory?
The smoke fires are dead
And the discords of our life
We write as history.

Argent moons myriad known, beneath an endless zenith sky
When hotter suns unaltered and stars ruled as aperture fever of a night
Around a fire this Naabeeho song begun, sung louder than a heaven's choir
As “Soaring Feather”...

Fireflies' Prelude - Plus Animal Poetry Contest
Fireflies’ Prelude
By Stacy Savage (Indiana)

The sun surrenders
To the sky
As the moon awaits
With his winking eye

To begin his routine
In the rosy wake
So the sun may take
Her needed break.

Fireflies come
And bid adieu
In their evening performance,
Right on cue,

Above...

Mountains around me
Lost at sea
My search to be free
Desert all around
Nothing of my heart left to be found
prairie grass under my feet
Sometimes silence is the treat
A night
So bright
Stars in the sky
My soul can fly
But I...

I long to soar with the eagle 
To fly uninhibited about the earth
Looking down onto the mountains 
Admiring their rocky faces
To feel the clouds brush over me 
While having the wind streamline down my back

but with great love i cooked

There are clouds on the horizon
Winds are blowing in from the east
The washing's still out on the line
And the Sunday's best is all creased

The cows are waiting on their feed
For the prairie grass in long...

 warming with springtime sun

A desolate lost soul still wonders blindly back
On that past, the darkened prairie grass, and covered dust
Where rain fell, love began, then turned...

Five years ago the land was fat
With prairie grass, tall and abundant, 
Moving like waves on the sea when the wind touched its bounty.

And then the clouds went barren.

As green turned to brown,
And swaying stems...

Cardinal At the Feeder
The brittle stems of Queen Anne's Lace
reduced to barren winter bone;
a hoarfrost Ermine coat embrace,
impaled in soil that's turned to stone.

The flowers now are wicker cups,
wear Bowler's hats of purest white;
the snowflakes that they interrupt

A newborn's but a fertile field most parents would propose
to plant with seeds of servitude lined up in perfect rows.
Tilled with proper spacing and of weeds there is no trace,
but as for me I'd sooner...

Feverishly furrows the prairie grass.
With a cry like a lost spirit, it winds
And wails through leafless trees and toothless fence
To vent its eager force upon the boards

The ground is damp

Crest born, I sit and wait the dawn.
My fingers weave into the high rye grass.
The house below is quiet still.

On a cold December night, a snowstorm
failed to stop a fire in Colorado.
And tinder-dry trees fueled a firestorm

A prairie grass fire in Boulder County,
wiped out Superior and Louisville.

As brocade of Summer's finery
Bedecks the canyons with moonstone hues.
