Space seems motionless
but for those who know the truth,
it shimmers, yearning for love.
Hearts callously squashed,
rise from mists assuring us,
injuries are forgiven.

The sun softly shimmers with gold glimmers
Sanguine sunsets dance such marvelous minuets
Turning ruby red, he briefly bled
'neath stunning skies, it seems as though daylight dies
Revived, reborn each misty morn
With radiant rays, he deftly displays
Dawn's luminous light in flourishing flight

quivering wildflowers waltz in meadows
alder leaves shimmer like wings of flying teal
cattails sway as breezes along the river slows
dandelions dreaming of a red rose surreal.
alder leaves shimmer like wings of flying teal
rusting old tractor by the broken tree swing
dandelions dreaming of a red rose surreal,
as fireworks in the valley dance and sing.
rusting old tractor by the broken tree swing
cattails sway as breezes along the river slows
as fireworks in the valley dance and sing
quivering wildflowers waltz in meadows.

Blue mist rises on the lake,
As pale moonlight shimmers
The rippling lagoon with
Faint spectral shadows,
Ebbing slowly to the shore.

drowning sun's aura
leaving golden flashing light
sea's face shimmers smile

Earth Shimmers, Life Explodes
Calming clouds float into my dream
fish flop happily onto my grill
Ducks quacking loudly taking to wing
Nature yawns and begins it's daily thrill
Forest fights the coming mist
night owls hourly call
Flowers groan and silently twist
woodpeckers hear it all
Cool streams flow on wet earth
bees gather for all they are worth
Snakes slither into the weeds
earth's beauty serves man's greater needs
Night sky glows like a hot candle
treasures, more than one man can handle
Moon sheds it's glittering skin
life explodes in the heart of men
Earth shimmers dancing in perfect time
poets sing rejoicing deeply in rhyme...........

Looking out our bay window at this glorious night. Wife enters, sweet kisses me good night.
Inspiration suddenly strikes!!!
A joy to be so very alive....
