"The Colour of the Breeze"

orange blossom,
pine leaves, and
floating cymbidium

exotic Nile lilies
with lips of mead

Worth Saving, Part Ii
...Shakespeare and his pentameter, vital after four centuries,
Cervantes and his man Sancho,
Dumas and Montecristo,
the great tales of Boccaccio,
Dicken and his fine ghosts three.
Beethoven's sonic fury still staggers even jaded minds,
Tchaikovsky made eighteen-twelve
sound utterly epic as...

Redemption
In a glowing, fearless and inspired articulation
of those fingers in the piano that provide brilliance;
It’s a piece of music, incisive with exceptional signs
so profound and rhapsodic in the entire performance.
I feel like being redeemed as...

Susan Brumel
We met in the summer of 1780,
When violins wept beneath candlelight.
A classical concert in Vienna’s old heart —
Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Chopin —
The kind of night that lives forever.
She sat beside me, dressed in black velvet,
Her hair...

Portrait On the Fourth of July
A girl in the crowd takes a selfie.
Her tam o’shanter sparkles
because of the fireworks going off
in the background, and because it has glitter.
At the gates of Moscow
weary French troops run away
hands over their ears, as...

Dreams Coercing Memory
“Dreams Coercing Memory”
You want cherries jubilee
with a little Krug champagne
but soft custard is just the same
when reality plays its game
by the spoonful
morphine comes
to save the day

subtle refractions
of dreams coercing
memory

Interment
In fifth grade, I earned first place
statewide for violin
against the girl I half-loved—
her fingers quicker,
her lineage more illustrious—
but that day,
mine did not tremble.
She chose a piece
with fireworks and pitfalls—
something by Tchaikovsky—
I chose Barcarolle—
plainspoken, sweet,
a boat...

Selectively Eclectic, a Musical Matter of Taste
I freely admit I love classical music,
And please don't think me a snob
If I keep my composure
When I mention composers
As Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, and Schumann,
And not Ludie, or Wolfie,
Or Petie, or Bob.
And a symphony simply...

The Bolshevist's Boat
"The Bolshevist’s Boat"
Where are the words
never heard in the hymn hidden
a broken heart sitting
solitary and questioning
In the Bolshevist’s Boat of Belief
there are questions -
and strange facts remain sticking
in a mind, like thorns...

Ennui
Disenchanted with ennui,
I want to my earth
To meet the sky,
To catch a falling star
Outside a ‘Monday thru Friday’
‘Nine to Five’ job,
But traffic on the eight eighty
Enshackles me in the tapestries of my mind.
Amnesia walks me...

Chance Meetings
I'd marry you tomorrow
If I could, my dear
The only reason not today is 'cause
Today's already here

To put it all together
The small details and such
I'd buy two...

I want to take your hand
And dance with you, on the silver sand
To Nature’s beat and the rhythm of the sea
I want to watch you sway
To the pulsating sounds of club deejay
Lost in the music...
