"Azure Vistas"
Azure vistas presented themselves to me
rolling inwards the clouds like tumbleweeds
mercilessly bump fallen angels off the map
like torrents of rain fal...

I miss who I used to be
...“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” Rumi
Upon my quest for quintessence.
I was an amorist,
positive in poetic philosophies.
Elysian and empyrean effigies,
enlightened i...

home again
...poetry cascading
over a stony heart
gently grinds it
smooth
the rhythm stops
it's a red flag

flown the coup
and scattered
in the wind

Oh Lord, I Praise October Days
...The bogs’ their fruit – the woodlands’ leaf
embrace a ripened red motif,
as cranberries and maples blaze

Ode To Life
...Ode to life
As I sought the sapling
Laying it deep within the soil

When It's My Time

I do not fear my final breath.

Starlicide
...a coat of stars
on a shiny night you
wear
and thrive in #'s (almost)

Mozart taught you to sing
everything

Heart Song
...The murmurations of a wounded heart,
one's rhythm lost, alone and incomplete,
are but a silent cry for where Thou art,
regardless how irregular the beats.
The walls, once closing in and much co...

Murder, She Wrote

Was scratching out novels and sipping vermouth.
She lived a charmed life when she was quite young;

of the dead end street
living her rag doll life
the only femme fatale

As thickening dusk
Subdues the tiring day
Flocks of starlings rest
Trilling and chattering in array
Upon tendril branches of trees
High up in the towering eves
As numbers incr...

Murmerations
...Squeaks shrieks and whistling chirps
mixed with mimicry, colourful
spotted speckled iridescent darlings
Pixilated torturous waves at dusk
mesmerising murmurations escaping the day

Hello October
...Trees display vibrant colours that fall in a glorious, crunchy tapestry.
Fruits are ready to harvest, lush blackberries, golden crabapples, plump, purple sloes covered in their purple blush.
