Song

You look so fair for dwelling on,
Forever so shall I dwell,
Nor break in two the twining spell
That binds my soul to you.

Strain

He wiggled his body and strain
He even twisted his hand
Trying to break in the store
Then was caught in the door
Causing his body much pain

Breath In the Night

Becoming one Unaware Of the gentle air Starting to tear Unconscious satiation Soft syncopation Becoming undone Until we break in two

Leaving April

LEAVING APRIL

a break in the clouds
            leafy crowd rustles
       shadows rush

blue jay darts in
      darts out
         point of concern

Nature Talk

Trees speak in whispers,
words dance within leaves, rustling.
Roots deep hold secrets
whilst barks break in memory.
Birds answer a question, lost.

Solace

When they break in.
Weave me back together

Love threaded spindle heart;
Needle tongue

Stringing me up like puppeteers;
Keeping these pieces of my heart together.

Bend Or Break In Two

bend or break in two

no other possibilities

either is your choice.

Gap Fillers

Listen to poem:
what fills the space between lines?
the gaps between words
the crack and cleft of hesitation
the break-in breaches
the silent pause of interruptions
ponder it in contemplation!

The Break In

Lights out
No one about
Alone we stand
Object in hand
Silently we move
Ready to remove
Items of wealth
With stealth
Window breaks
Glass in flakes
In we now go
Time for the show

Breakup

Didn't feel the bird would fly off abruptly 
No break in providing food and water 
The cage, however, stayed open off and on 
Dating on the treetop _ new boyfriends

Armed

Be it one who has will 
A power to fight
That sand mans kill
One’s own plight  

For freedom, it be taken
To this He be not blind
Take shells with centers and break in
Our peace one day we’ll find

Precarious

*

              a break in the clouds...in a birdbath, moonlight skates on thin ice

Christmas Ch-Ch-Chill

Cuddling by the warm fireplace
Howling winds try to break in, but fail
In our little snug cabin on Christmas Eve
Love surrounds us as we cling together
Late night hugging as we wait for the big day to come

taking a break

taking a well deserved break in the forties
on a high construction beam above New York
where the twenty-seventh floor will someday be
we did not dare annoy the guys next to us
none of us wearing safety harnesses

All comes back

Bright sunshine is darkness hidden
One moment revel and play
Until sun no more sees fun
Wither and break in darkness
And the next you survive
And the next you thrive
Beware the sun is back
Beware it won't last long

Sea Shore Night


The swelling sea static at skyline, stillness stuck at edge of dusk,
waning waves break in splendor, pearls spread on the sedate reclined shore, 
twilight spectrum rolls, weave tapestry of darkness for falling night.

Concealed Heart

Wind
Touchs face
Reliving
Yearning of love
Dormant in the heart
Avoiding mirages
Preserving from fall in love
Saving from the disillusions
Seeing love where it does not exist
Rescuing heart from break in small pieces

Store It In Heaven

“Store not up for yourselves treasures on earth
where thieves can break in and steal your purse,
     where rust degrades
     and moth invades.
Store it in heaven, where your heart finds its worth.”

Matthew 6.19-21

Break

It was just a break in the road
gaping, defying, sneering its
refusal to allow normal traffic;
smooth pavement ripped like
some old plastic seat covering
revealing wet stained stuffing.
No easy traverse in sight,
so I turned, and went back.

Struggle of a Butterfly

Cocooned in safe world so fragile,
The butterfly flutters by,
Nothing in life comes too facile,
Struggle you must, break in to fly,
Kites of success shall sail on high !

New Life

The life of mine,
So missing in time,
The break in my line,
The whole in my life,
My heart wide open,
My heart found,
My heart unwound,
I am happy,
Because of caring,
Some one found me,
I am ready,
For her to fill me,
That whole overflowing.

Swimming At Night

dive in deep from cool cement
chlorinated water above my head
breath held deep with easy glide
swimming with you side by side
under stars and crescent moon
eyes shut tight against the burn
surface break in the still night
as you disappear from my heart's lie

Beautiful War

it is often fought
no guns, no arrows
no tears roll away
hearts break in bits
in heart to heart fight
rage mixes with glory
pleasure rolls chaos
a war taken willingly
savage fighting savage
and blood  flows silently
no one is left behind
in this beautiful war

Smooth Sailing

This is the flow of Cynic wit,
But here, within, I tell no lies
Whom so patient to idly sit,
And observe the passer-by?
In the Night, like ships we pass,
A silent break in the waves me make
Frigid waters in iron-cast,
And in my Heart there sticks the stake!

*A nod to Poe :)
