Everyone I've ever loved
Has left their mark on my soul
On my body
On my mind.
Every time I speak
Everything I type
Every song I listen to 
Everything
Without my loved ones
Who am I?
Without me
They will still be them
But without them
I am nothing
Is it too late?
Too late to be me
Or will I simply be them 
Until I die
Being them is

Bridges and Mosaics

I will no longer seek your gaze,  
no longer linger on the edge of silence,  
the absence stretching like a vast horizon.  

I will not reach for your warmth,  
no longer draw maps in the air  
of what we could be,  
the path winding like a whisper,  
echoing

The Final Mosaics Class

I watched the projects taking shape,
All varied in design – 
A tree, a flower, a giraffe,
All different from mine.

One displayed a pot of blooms,
Another one huge eye,
Each finished effort proving
This was surely worth a try.

With some guidance from our teachers,
Grout was slathered ‘til it dried,
Then we gently wiped it off
And showed our artwork off with

Mosaics Class - Day 2

Day 2 in my mosaics class,
I started to improve,
For once I had a subject,
I could get into the groove.

I sketched an owl like Flaco,
Who was known in Central Park
And it seems that all I needed
To get going was a spark.

Special tools helped cut the tiles,
Which I glued onto a board
As the project started taking shape,

Mosaics Class

I am not artistic, but
I signed up for a class
To learn to make mosaics
Out of little bits of glass.

We studied some examples
From a long-past ancient date
Then received our own materials
With which we could create.

I watched my classmates jump right in,
Ideas at their command,
While staring blankly at the tiles
And glue I had at hand.

With paper and

Orange Mosaics

Scarlet, crimson, vermillion, and cerise,
replace canopies of emerald green.
And the ground morphs into a golden fleece;
as fallen leaves, yellow and tangerine,
pave a pathway south for migrating geese.

Autumn’s beauty oft takes one's breath away;
like Spring; Fall's a magical time of year.
And as colors and breezes interplay;
orange mosaics suddenly appear,
as fallen leaves get blown in disarray.

The Mosaics In You

Bidding a fond adieu,
To silliness and harmful jokes.
After all, in the end, we have
hearts and are all human folks.

It's cheap and easy, and shows
the soul that lives in thee.
Empty and rattling with pure
arrogance for humanity.

Those who you raise up doth show 
the very best in you.
The multiple mosaics of God's
universe reflecting with a clarity
of view.

Fractured Mosaics

We are merely montages, a mélange of endless stardust - -


Finessing poetry 'round melodic sentiments,

 nuances manifested 'neath  fractured mosaics of entities'

        indwelling harmoniousness amidst surrendered

    yesteryear's spellbinding prospective endeavors,

  we are but astral whispers on winds of prismatic illusions

  upon transcendence
