Southern heat wave bluesIt’s ninety one but feels like more,
Like I opened up the Devil’s front door.
He said “Come on in!” with a fire breath grin
Now I’m sweatin' places I ain’t ever been.
The sidewalk’s cookin’ eggs on the sly,
Birds stopped chirpin', too hot to fly.
Even my dog gave me that judgmental look,
Like, “Take me out again and you’re...

A Seasonal AffairA frigid spell of arctic air
adorns the tranquil western scene;
a stunning glimpse of fall’s affair
with spring’s vivacious flower queen.
When autumn’s cooling wind combines
with April's warming playful breeze,
a whirling tempest paints designs
on grounds of winter’s icy freeze.
On sculptured hills of milky snows
October's tepid finger strolls,
and May's...

Of Whispers and Winds
Winds whisper ‘Arrival' come Spring
Departure in November
January’s gusts inhabit every crack and crevice
Summer’s banners lie limp against their poles

Tab 75I hope that the sun melts away
And the air gets quietens down
Soon
I’ll be waiting here
For the light to leave my shoulders
And the winds to get cooler
It’s a shame
That things like this become
Something to be feared
The seasonal swings graze
My ear
And I’ve only just started summer break
But I’m tired of the beating sun
Down my back

Tab 8Tab 8
The summer pains will
Go away; and once winter breaks
Problems become numb
The snow and cold air
Soothe your sunburns, and the lake
Of your mind freezes in the mint
For the first time in
A while, even though your nose
Is red- there is peace
But the harsh winds get
Repetitive over time
You crave the sunlight
And when you know
It...

black flies swarm, in boat’s wake
floating dock moored to a stake
mallard ducks follow the drake

IN LIFE'S GODLY SEASONSIN LIFE’S GODLY SEASONS
Death need not be feared;
It’s in the nature of life:
Seasons come and go:-
Seek a saintly life,
From your spring to your autumn:
Soaring in God’s grace:-
In God’s sown love,
Be a reaper of his grace:
Saintly ascending:-

Seeking a Mooring
by Wang Wei
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch
A leaf drifts through infinite space,
a cold wind rends distant clouds.
The river flows seaward,
the tide repulses.
Beyond the moonlit reeds,
in unseen villages, I hear
fullers’ mallets
pounding...

A Summer Of AngelsThat gear to move forward
is often reverse
The best choice of words
fortune hides in a curse
Our holiest blessing
an omen that warns
And friendship most sacred
in traitor’s reborn
Today frees tomorrow
once yesterday’s gone
Each phrase that escapes us
new words to a song
The time of the season
Fall Winter and Spring
A Summer of angels
— new devils will bring
(Dreamsleep: June, 2025)

Pages From Decrepit Seasons
Before midnight ticks, I turn to my
interior world ,
One that cradles myrhh
of reminisces and sagas,
Allowing breaths to inhale the agony
and radiance of loved ones' trails
now beyond my physical reach--
Watching the decrepit portraits on
the foyer, July air greets the dew
on blossoms, monarchs flitting in my...
