Why dost thou devour
My daisies by night,
Then by day, 
Curl-up in thy house,
And sleep,
Well out of sight....

Made a perfectly dreadful mistake:
Turned his back upon Wanda,
An immense anaconda,
And became a quick snack for the snake....

Each star that lights Eternity;
But since my name is something less
I only sense their silverness.
This undue honor humbles me....

A little Blake; and . . . a great big moon
Is all it takes
To walk each other home
To the tender side, the fragile side 
Of our rude-winter Steppingstones....

To another’s drumbeat,
Nor always dance
To another person’s tune,
But march in time
To your own heartbeat and
Dance and dance
Till you reach the moon …...

This is a short poem. 
Not a long one like the rest. 
(not haiku)
This is about time, 
and saying a lot in a small space.
Updates to follow.
Be quiet... (calm)

those that have been forgotten,
in the small room,
the place in our hearts,
where God 
plants the best flowers,
and no tears…
fall....

The muggers,
The rapists,
The murderers,
The paedophiles,
The confidence tricksters -
Pray for them.

The weak,
The naïve,
The young,
The old,
The inadequate mixers -
Prey … for them....

When the light from the setting sun
Makes a shining path on the sea,
Am I the only one who can see it?
Is this path solely meant for me?
Is it a pathway to my dreams?
Do I dare follow it to see?...

Longing

Little mermaid on the rock, 
Wishing and wondering, 
What it would be like, 
just to walk?

Little girl in a chair, 
riding around on wheels of air…
Wondering; what it is like… to feel?...
