He Chose Me

In gentle lines, 
Shadows fall, quiet as dusk,
In the moonlight,
Hearts who learn to trust,
Because they must know,
Wonder of love,
Sensation of leaves falling,
Turning the world breathless
As the colors of a dream
Hues of rustling peace.

In lessons learned,
Songs...

A Mum, She Is

A raw poem. Whoever would like to rearrange, reorganize it has the right. I'd like to thank them all. I promise I will never make a claim for that 

A husband knows, but he pretends...

Maude's Last Stand

Maude’s Last Stand 

(Rage, Rage, Rage against the dying of the light - Dylan Thomas ) 

They put me on the second floor
Now uniforms pass by my door
Starched and stiff they bristle by
Sometimes I’ll catch...

Rain of Rose 1

Colures transposed orbits closed whence derive the rains of rose?
Across million mileage magic and magnitude are striding
O'er holistic horizon svelteness and smoothness are sliding
Meridian framed parallax tamed whither swash the rains of rose?
Spray by spray,...

Vote and Remove Our Ego

I am a woman in a man's world drinking milk to prepare a mustache. 
The struggle to survive is disobedience.

In my garden, behind the weeds, there is a String of Pearls and the skulls we...

Maria Flores 1878-1923

Maria Flores
1878-1923

Si, he was muy macho!
I was the last to see him.
Before Senor White sealed his body for eternity,
Inside the cheapest casket I had ever seen!
And I was working there, for White-Emerson,
From the time I...

Fragile Contest

Fragile Steps

Fragile feet broken-in, glass slippers
waltzing through the ballroom.
The sweep of a cerulean gown,
charming, with angel wings.

~

Broken inside, fatherless, feathers
fall around her - weeping. Bullies - dressed
like sisters, tango around her tresses.

Pulling...teasing, stepmother leading.
Ribbons unwound.

Her...

The Love and Lost Quartet - Part Two - First Kiss

summer before freshman year
stargazing from the muddy banks
of a class celebratory bonfire
across the roaring river

multiple guitar melodies
competing with the sounds
of joyous screaming and laughter
as well as the usual night life

ever the outsider
all alone in the...

Leading a Happy Life Via Reading

Reading alone gets wit and wisdom,
Wide reading increases knowledge,
We can learn a lot by that process,
That only paves the way for growth.

We must make a note of all the books
That World calls as a treasure...

Nightbird

An unhurried sun slides across the horizon
Preparing for slumber behind distant waves
And daylight’s last seagull rides thermals in search
Of a late night fish supper - the herring he craves 

A paint shop explosion enlivens the...

Sick of Sorrow: I Will Make It

Buried alive by your goodbyes
Airborne dead by your senseless lies
Overcoming feelings of hurt,
Seeking first His comfort

Drenched in silence 
While the waters rinses away
The dread from my head
The squalid grief left me
Breathless for only a moment,
Then...

Release

Who will make a stand?
Countless like the seashore sand…
Who shall make a stand?
The end of mankind is at hand

Will someone save me?
Knee deep in regret, I see…
Save me from gravity's hold or I’ll be upset
Nighttime's...

Cobwebs and Tears

The moon casts a surreal light
Upon looking out of the window
The night is my mistress
Solitude my blanket
Then I think of you:
The daffodils dancing as they glisten
Your almond eyes,
Serene lips always rest unscathed -
Right every after...

The Newness of Now

Now is not categorized as such because it rose out of the sordid ashes of a yester-moment

Now is not classified as fresh because it arose pristine and bleached from yester-hour’s horror

The uniqueness of now is...

The Mist

The mist washes the hills
In a hazy comfort,
Soothing away every thought
Releasing the promises
Worthiness, like the dewdrop
Silencing fears, tears

The mist, like a heavy fog,
Caressing oak and pine
Stardust falls, pouring out
Rhymes, rhythms
Poetry on the emotional
Ride through eventide

The...

Existence Enshrined


The rhapsody of rainbow 
melts in morose mélange,
the concoction of colors
bleeds bland in 
shattered silence,
sucked out 
of crumbled core 
of sensuous cloud,
soothing rain rinses 
the stains in broken hearts,
shades of grey paints 
the frayed linen...

About Her and Her Reflections On Alone.

She washed her hands, carefully, so as not to remove too many memories, and the basin made
of porcelain must have held his fingers, somewhere...

She appeared to herself~hair piled above her head, curls escaping across alabaster
cheeks~alone...

There...

Mister Joe

Mister Joe, would-be muse, 
jangles loose change in his pocket.
Memories jogged and garnered as he walks.
Mister Joe in contemplation, 
washes, rinses and tumble dries, what pops into his head,
in hourly cycles, with riddles, jingles and...

Camping

In tents some great adventures dwell.
Intense are nights where flashlights swell.

Sites are intimate and spacious.
Sights agree, the Lord is gracious.

Peeks of heaven's breath surround us.
Peaks within trek's reach astound us.

Wood is obtained for bright campfires.
Would...

Whos Been Screwing Around

swoosh of the vacuum
swipe of cloth in circular
patterns. climbing up step stool.
snatching away cobwebby art.
searching for spaces to permanently stash.

sensuous path of cleaning cupboards
and their concentric circle knobs.
the daily sway and swing of caring

The Parasite (Living the Last Days)

Wait hold up something is so wrong

Hard to feel my feet
Not to mention I feel nausea when I see meat
Especially beef
Everyday feels...

Gender Genuflection



The sergeant says,
you know the drill
And the new grunts get the spit down
Pressed pants and shiny boots 
in the barracks
are military grade thumbs up
But, in the showers, eyes are cast down
Murmurs and rumors 
are the...

Beauty God Contrived

The ebb and flow of salty seas cools sands
Calm rinses burning heat from sunny shores.
A gleeful child builds castles with small hands.
Serenely, Mother watches and adores.
The breaking waves dance when they reach dry lands.
The creatures...

Pristine

Oh, jungle, deep ...
hug me close your jade breast -
I long to hear a thrum within ...
let your warm whispers tickle
the tympans of my ears with
sultry songs of your essence ...
and your tangle of mysteries.

Face-to-sky,...

You Can'T March Dirt Out

You can't march dirt from soiled laundry – 
one needs a strong detergent, and several
cycles of rinses.  You can't vote dictators
out of office – they do the counting, generally
counting the people out.  The...
