Love Has a Southern Flavor
Love has a Southern flavor: honeydew,
ripe cantaloupe, the honeysuckle’s spout
we tilt to basking faces to breathe out
the ordinary, and inhale perfume ...
Love’s Dixieland-rambunctious: tangled vines,
wild clematis, the gold-brocaded leaves
that will not keep their order in...

Contentment
Remember watching the clouds breathe,
In endless sees of make-believe,
Erasing the summer blue, azure in fleeting
Moments, silencing the music of birdsong,
Softly chortling in rhythms,
Hearts warmed by the presence of miracles,
Promising the wind will blow away,
Every...

Ancient Winter Writers

with resonantly compelling grace,
perhaps even transparent vulnerability,
feels controversial,
too laissez-faire
Too much courage
in declaring preliminary success
with too little curiosity
about what happens next
on planet Earth
Continuing to revolve all four seasons
dynamics

Stone of St Croix Island
Carefree in leisure time, one blasé tourist,
almost happy, I once had collected a complicated stone;
after the sunny hours had ended and last opportunity
for keepsakes began.

Ballad
I'M Ready If You Are : Feb 2017
I'm ready if you are.
Steadily walking past wekas, canoes, sailboats, motorboats, along concrete paths, down ash-felt slopes
Across intersecting car trails
Drawn only by the beckoning beach.
Feet slipping over Northland's rough green grass
Damp, spongy, smooth grit of...

Choose Peace
Peace invites the music of the heart,
Poured out, flowing,
Gentle as the stars who’re strewn,
Across the windless night, soft and hesitant,
Dancing delights, playing in shadows,
Curled beneath the moon’s light…
Peace surrounds the soul in grief,
Whispering kisses,
Erasing...

When The Child Cried Out

They followed on the burned, barren earth,
A place so strange, but so familiar, he looked around,
A sign lies, on the naked land, "St. George Vill.", it read,

Perche' Di Notte Non Riesco A Dormire-Why At Night I'm Unable To Sleep
Perche' di notte non riesco a dormire;

e non cercare piu' quella luna di neve?
Why at night am I unable to sleep;
ah, could I...
