Long Tranquilities Poems

Spiritual beings blessed by a grace from on high, angelical creatures
Soaring between sunlight and twilight’s over cast of shadows, 
Hush now be still, listen children of humanity for the swooshing
Of their ivory wings ever lightly...

On my side of the hemisphere, Old Man Winter begins in December
and meanders through the earth with cold, ice, and snow. With ice-

I've come to want for morning leisure
where once the night knew not my haste
now feed my measure of quiet pleasure
trading sleep for tranquilities taste

Tis when I ponder of past and present
an editors choice of will

Look...See how long nights are drawing in.
Dreary birdsong gradually abates -
Opaque dusk grows dim;
And just outside the creaky little garden
Gate,
Stood opposite the empty wood
Where the vacant threshold silently awaits,
I pause, when, resonating quietly back...
I now...

The grumpy principal athwart the class
is walloping the learner ad infinitum
with his computer cable,
and screeching his lungs out
his wrath and his tranquilities;
he says she’s late for school yet again.

Madly she pulls across the desks;

Closing my thoughts to clear my mind; sight....

Floating through a souls time, unto tranquilities breeze

Gently, that I may find, somehow such treasures

Of the civilizations harshest grid, seeking tranquilities

Quiet pieces of my heart, fragile
Delicate like silk or hope,
Betray the breath of my past,

Gentle stars reflect my soul, shimmering
Like laughter from the...

Feelings that only exist in the quietness.
Time that only proceeds in the hidden.
Tangled up illusion that is felt in the body.
Pirouetting emotions that never seem to withdraw.
Unspoken needs and desires that have no voice.
Unable to...

S/he knows hot cold felt co-passions
calling to become Bodhisattva Caller,
EarthTown Crier,
co-messianic prophet of brightest gloom
begging prophecies still hiding

winning our least best common denominations
racing diverse nurturing
of ecotherapeutic tranquilities,
resonant resilience
to both call and cooperative calling back
listening through...

When food was served, before cleaning pots and pans
the old man when young, went out on deck to see the sunset.
A dreamy that is if a tempest wasn`t...

Soft melodies of misted spray
adrift ‘pon glistened air
Cascading waters on display
their touch of moisture’d share

As fern leaf sonnets fill the trees
illumined emerald green
Symphonic spun tranquilities
embrace this peaceful scene

Sweet solitude in whispered song
on crystal stream it...

Soul o' thy chirpin' melodies,
Ink o' thy timid symphonies,
Collects me, t'se calmeth tranquilities,
Requiem t'en pierceth my heart,
Blameth me, she, consumed h've I,
The light, b'low the gallow t'at lie,
Blameth me, she, stolen h've I,
The sound, droppeth...

Humid. The dust of water brushing every surface
Through the strong breeze,
The changing clouds speaking relief as they
Shift through tranquilities.

The shadow of night in the day over us
In the rain pass,
The truth of how it rains...
