Long Rolling wave Poems

I can’t see your face for spirits move mysteriously                  But terrible evil is haunting, this dark place ...

The muddle of sleep—
The grand entrance to Morpheus' legendary palace
In whole or half a tablet; 
Easy breaths of chemicals
In pretty, light-refracting bottles.

I prepare myself for an escorted journey
To where dreams float from their origin
Like glossy...

"Poetry is a life-cherishing force. For poems are not words, 
after all, but fires for the cold, ropes let down to the lost, 
something as necessary as bread in the pockets of the hungry."

Wandering down the murky tunnel,
 
I count the cracks along the cavern walls.
 
Further and further they spread like veins.
 
To my avid blood, their secrets call.
 
 
 
They promise understanding and hope.

Life is a beach but not too sunny  when cancer comes along.
The day it came to me, I never could imagine the obnoxious waves 
that would come rolling onto the beach I so enjoyed.

You disappeared like foam on a slow rolling wave
You sang a deep-throat song like from a small creature
Your gaze sang songs of sad sunrises to me
You shook my world leaving me by Life's roadside

On dark...

I can honestly say that I have loved,
and lived on the edge of the world.
Shared from my shore to yours all
my emotions from inside.

But as time comes and goes,
so do the people that pass .

From within the flux its breath sweeps the shoreline,
Sometimes spewing forth flotsam and jetsam
Lolling us to sleep with its soothing savoury sighs.
Its siren calls hypnotising the unwary and confidant.
Drawing us to depths of hidden fury...

Upon the crest of a whispering wave, 
A love letter sealed in a bottle's embrace, 
Tossed by the tides, an age ago, 
Lost in the depths, where mysteries flow.

Within its parchment, emotions reside, 
Ink stained...

Home from School

 A little stream by the village bridge.
Clear cold water over jagged stones
 searched for pieces of china in the mud
as we meandered slowly home.

 Once-treasured patterns and bits of bones and
 a...

When the color of twilight had deigned to appear tonight
I could hear the earth sigh in proud parental delight
As the sea gathered the last rolling wave to rocky shore
the sky a smear of sun’s autumn...

She walks alone by the edge of the sea,
Where waves like whispers speak tenderly,
Their fingers trace the curve of sand,
Calling her out from the quiet land.

The trees above in shadowed grace,
Watch her move with a...

gentle waves tiptoe ashore
sandpipers scurrying away from the rippling tide
sandcastles looming in the distance
beach blanket knights
and sand dune days
radiant in the mid day sun
shades of glistening brown and red
and dark sunglasses
a red and yellow kite...

Purple daze 




Sunshine haze over milky blue Ocean reflects white horses rolling wave 

Sea gulls squawk as they glide on warm winds effortlessly above the port were boatmen slave 

Splendour azure skies trapping the contours...

The curling waves approach each shore from sea
To meet their journeys end with crests of white
Their crashing sounds release a loud decree
And wash a foam on rocks with water's might
To cause a rainbow's mist along...

A wounded heart cries, fills its lonely glass
Held, caressed by the anguished hands of sorrow
Hoping memories last, as tears trespass
To rebuild the temple love did borrow
Pouring eyes awash in long thinning streams
Their sadness a relentless...

For my water god I entered the wetlands.
Fog was increasing and me becoming incoherent.

The swamp throws a high tide of rolling wave
I lift the burden of bones and take a plunge in darkness.

The holy moon...

Unbearable Beauty in PINK


A proud, vindictive, defiance,
	rippled through the crowd,
		flexed its collective muscle
						moved forward

a soft, mellifluous,  hum
	accompanied them
		nurtured their success
						speaking out

answered prayers seeking sunlight
	casting shadows on a darkness
		together holding hands
						giving thanks

Three Days to walk,...

It’s a warm and surreally serene night.

A great milky wheel of stars
rises wet and shivering from the waves
at midnight’s horizon,
and the silver pale light of a gibbous moon
settles on the sea
glistening its tinsel-crested heaving bosom.
