Long Stretch along Poems

Chyann Rose, the elegant and beautiful rose
That grows in the wilderness beneath the trees,
Its memories floats high over all our country roads,
Fluttering its leaves, dancing elegantly in the breeze.
 
Sweeping along in the cool thoughtful...

Me and myself, a solitude flowing through the veins of silence,
An unseen thread between the world and nothingness, a knot that never unties,
Everyone looks at me with their own eyes, weaving my story from their...

I dream a cross is dressed in diamonds rich.
It rears too high with spans that glisten gold
that stretch along the sky's chromatic edge
yet crimson rubies shine magenta tones. 

Its light is beauteous and brightly burns
against...

Rainbows are scattered on my blank walls
Patterns appear where the light splits and falls
They stream across the ceiling
They stretch along the floor
Echoes of beauty for my mind to store.

Visions of hope, visions of hope,
As I’m...

Driftwood benches stretch along the shoreline as far as the eye can see


While purple and green kelp stain the wet sand like messy 
brush strokes a child would make


Amongst the rocks and tide pools, a...

Sunlight has come, and the newest has day began 
With the sweet sound of sleep lay in curls beyond 
Wear limbs and rest, above heavenly skies waiting 
A flurry of voices to come from little...

Oh, how I love a peaceful summer day
when trees are still, and fields of grass stand tall.
In tranquil air, the bird songs drift away-
in tunes so clear, I'm lulled with every call.

Oh, how I love...

Beneath the sun-kissed sky of Coastal California's domain,
Where Pacific waves meet the land, an eternal refrain.
Golden shores stretch along the rugged terrain,
A canvas painted with nature's utmost pertain.

Majestic cliffs rise with stoic grace,
Overlooking the ocean's...

Standing at the water's edge
 a school of small fry catfish swim
 scurrying beneath the sun rays
 in and out the cover of decaying leaves;
how fast they hurry
 gathering in a blend of darkened feelers

Before me lies the ocean, with its shore,
   maintaining varied limits day and night;
at times, beyond its border, reaching more
   than ever, thrashing out in wild delight.

At other times, so docile,...

There is a place where the land bows down to kiss the misty tide,
Where rolling waves bring memories of the place my heart resides.
There among the old fishing shacks that stretch along the shore,
I find...

Branches that stretch along the terrace with dangling stems throughout.  Scraped, chipped and peeled of layers from its grey skin.  Connecting each stem to stem marked by living things that invade and conquer...

Steadily
 the rapids flow, fast and quick,
 splashing up and down the stones
 then falling into the pond.

Swirls and ripples form
 where once still waters held one’s gaze
 now, a constant motion forward, away
 to...

My whole layout you rearranged
fragments fit my shredded heart,  
revived by a blackout unplanned; 

Cabinets you couldn’t leave closed, 
repairing hinges that had fallen apart; 
My whole layout you rearranged; 

Led me down a...

For some folks, it’s a marathon 
Of lonesome country miles
That stretch along a winding road 
At every runner’s pace.
For others, it’s a full-on sprint 
Of pounding, driven strides
That hammer toward the finish line 
To claim...

with fizzle sounds like brushes on a drum,
their once brave tune declined forevermore,
beneath the growing shades of a beach plum.

The shadow fingers stretch along the beach,
to close the eyelids...
