It Was SimpleBefore times were hard, they were simple.
The dew bloomed in your 6AM eyes
Your heart was a candle sat on a cottage table kitchen
But hearts aren’t meant to be kept inside cottages

Canoeing On the Current RiverOur riverbank launch at dawn
where dense forest chills the breeze,
where cottonwood leaves flutter like wings,
and weeping willow penumbras tease.
Glistening, rippling turquoise water churns.
Crystal swirling pools symphonic and aglow,
elliptic aluminum crafts coast over craggy stones,
riverbed...

Torch Lake - Passing On the TorchHe walked up from the lake
Throwing open the door of the glorious day
Like a smiling OB-GYN snapping off his gloves
With a toolbox in hand
Delivered to my dad the good news.

as if stranded on a sandbar….
Where what we choose to do in those moments…for those moments…

Musee ImaginariePortuguese-man-of-war,
knocking on the ocean's door.
Making the moon shine in the mist,
of this and that, and that and this.
The seacow and the seaweed meet,
and brush the sand off their feet.
Then sit and watch the waves roll...

Beside Behind Water and FireIn the hot A-Ga-Ming night
My wife and I skip the July 4th fireworks
At the sandbar down south on long Torch Lake
Start our own shoreline fire
Count the red electrified dorsal fins
Of the motorboat salmon swimming upstream
Migrating...

As the sandbar ebbed closer to the shore
Allowing family, friends to wander the depths without
Fear of the unknown, without apprehension
The sun stayed bright upon us
Allowing us joy together,...

two lovely girls with skirts that flow.

On the River Sand-----------
Distant green eyes view at snowy peaks.
On the candlelight, a deeply buried pain opens.
The words scattered across the face merge.
Open hearts in nirvana swim.

on the birch bark as...

A Wish Upon a Moonlight StarUpon a translucent lamp lit orb eve,
magical butterflies I did perceive.
I watched them flit without a care,
glistening specters dancing on air.
Flying up into the sky’s caress,
glistening lights of gentleness.
I made a wish upon the dog...

Canoe TripA cool wind creeps
Across a stagnant Day
Stirring the persistent heat
And pestering bugs away
Our feet rest chilly
Along the river's bank
Resting on this sandy shoal
Our canoes have found a place
We eat and drink, and the kids...

Trees on sandbar
Dance in air.

Happiness melody inner.
Dancing time
Twilight time runs

JulietShe stood there on the balcony
