Reunited
In crescendos and surges of light,
Beneath the somber, crimson sky,
Beyond the shadow's line,
He stretched his wings in haste
He found and swept an angels heart;
They shine and struck embrace
And onward flew the angels,
By crimson flame and flash
We simply stood and stared a while,
And heard the trumpets blast.
We saw it singed and scorched in light
And in the

Reunited
I never knew exactly how
They went their separate ways
And somehow months accumulated
Since their coupled days.
It made me sad to know how much
I missed those moments where
They’d spend their time entangled,
Such a cozy, comfy pair.
Yet just this morning, I was in
For quite a big surprise
When, in a folded t-shirt, there was,
Right before my eyes…
The missing partner

Words activate something in me
even if I’m just thinking, not writing.
So I soon find myself back at the keyboard.
It seems that my life’s been a series of keyboards.
My motor’s always running—I idle fast.
But I’ve been untying my intellectual shoe-strings recently.
Dissociatively avoiding intellective pursuits,
and embracing entropy (since school ended).
It’s been relaxing—I’ve felt new to my body.
There’ve

Dusk
When you’re on an endless highway
is there any hope at all
that a destination will be reached,
and you can finally fall
back in the arms of the one you lost,
in the home you left behind?
For despite the years spent traveling,
more highway’s all I find.
They say that life’s a journey,
comprised within a

Reunited
Some hearts will go on,
Braving the storms, the pain,
Even though you’re gone,
You’re there in ways I can’t explain.
Some of those who believe,
Will speak of you with a smile,
Laughing, even though they grieve,
You were here such a short while.
Some will let the tears flow,
Resting on their cheeks, their souls,
Breathing light that shall always glow,
Recalling the

Meet Me There
Meet me there ...
Be it rain or shine,
Since I like both
Any weather is fine
Find me there ...
With those already met,
To mingle there ...
With ones I haven't yet
In a good place where
We can laugh and smile,
And talk to the ones
Not seen in awhile
I'll be going there
When my time comes,
I'll be waiting there
With my old

Beg of Night
The dawning sky lightened
as day crept up the horizon
pushing Night
toward his exit passage
While all of early rising
could hear the wind of Night
pleading piteously to the Day:

Reunited
The wind is blowing gently
as the trees sways with grace
I take each step carefully,
keeping a steady pace
I scour the filed, not knowing where to go
hopping left, jumping and running right
hoping to find a wonderful sight
And then there was ‘you’
I rub my eyes to be sure.
Behold! your beauty’s still as pure
This

Journey Home
Painting ~ Return of the Prodigal ~ Il Guercino
Returning from the land of my rebellion,
in rags that reek of pigs and sweat and mud.
Now penniless, I’ve been a hell-bent hellion,
wasting the fortune of my flesh and blood.
But now considering my distant father;
how could I dare to think he’ll have me back?
I’ll

Separation of a Seasoned Love
What, if any, shall my love be; if tho is not there in the meadow of our season? Will our love wilt as flowers do in the burning sun without thy water to sip into its roots? Shall we not meet by the tree in the meadow of our love? But, if it is not

Friends Reunited
Friends? Reunited
Via "Facebook Message" the invitation
Reached me - bold in bright blue tint
With sprawling “school days” animation
And scrawling script in child-like print
Announcing that another year
Could not surely be allowed to pass….
Would I care to raise a hearty cheer
Alongside others from my class
Who shared my school days long ago
Let’s assemble for a “night of fun”……?

Arm In Arm
I’m looking for equilibrium, between my head and my heart
Let my vision clear before my desires to see you burst
In my brief visit home, I want less time apart from the start
Filling up my days means spending time with you first
Our meetings together to be savored and tasted in full
No time to dawdle as I’d

Daryl uncle daryl where art though
are you looking down from up high
have you been given your wings yet

or are you the new guy in town

to earth each time you look down

your tummy made to be tight
are you clothes

Call a Sitter We Have Plenty of Money
The singles ad pointed out to her was beautifully written.
Even though married, bored, Shelly was instantly smitten.
She told some big lies, so she could meet her soulmate.
They had a meeting place, and she agreed to be there by eight.
Her husband would watch their six children, of course.
He never had anything to do, if he was
