ornate frost etchings across panes
intricately grace taut wintry windows
ludic angels stage their ephemeral artwork

Don't get
hung up on poetry.
When you get hung
up on poetry
you start to dream
and your dreaming
softens the darkening
etchings in the world.
Shifting sands beneath me leave soft impressions
Like the gentle etchings upon my pages
It is not my goal to create a pattern
Ever enduring

CHOSEN WRITTEN WORDS
the letters are here
arranged on paper to read
spellbound written lies
sheets of paper lined
covered with etchings chosen
are the words we read

wisps of clouds
drawn across blue skies
celestial calligraphy
gracefully etched

CITE
Calm in sure quest now gently shows,
Ink stains bring zest in telling flow;
Thought feeds the fest as feelings surge,
Etchings word best as message glows.

Betwixt these tithes at her antiquities keen asylums; a foretokens child esoteric
Paleolithic etchings; afore their myths the caverns Acheron's absolved; loric tides..
Acute, this illness ironic it's stones ? Theology sects scribes a second coming as time.

On a lonely pier
of weathered wood
and salt water etchings,
beneath a moonlit mosaic
on a cloudless sky
Stained glass brush strokes
cling to a northern horizon
as I cast my heart afloat,
wishing on a promised tide
that it reaches you
Years arrive and leave,
Winters roll and weave
Lines around your eyes
Making you look wise.
Wise enough to know
Every wind to blow
Leaves its time and trace
Furrowed in your face.
Lines of love and grief,
Hate and disbelief,
Rage, and loyalty,
On your face to see.
Years arrive and leave,
Winters roll and weave
Lines around your eyes
Making you look wise.
Wise enough to know
Every wind to blow
Leaves its time and trace
Furrowed in your face.
Lines of love and grief,
Hate and disbelief,
Rage, and loyalty,
On your face to see.
Speakers and writers on joy or great sorrow,
help human hearts deal with lies and the truth.
They offer an easing from etchings of tears,
and help on occasion to alleviate fears.
Their hand or a hug, love’s presence surround,
add warmth and compassion with silent sound.
ETCHINGS
Ebony chalk e t c h e s-
Easel full of parchment
exasperating me-
Edges of drawings that
elude my skilled talent-
E N D L E S S soft artisan...

Small pieces of paper -
notes to an unsuspecting love.
Etchings of black and blue ink
scrawled errors on blank sheets
that once said nothing.
Now, clearly displayed to read
for all to see longings, emotions, feelings
waiting to verbalize everything
but saying nothing at all
kept hidden inside.
Peace and plenty,
Orb of fine rays;
Earth feels savvy,
Touch of fond ways;
Incline sure heart,
Calm and surely.
Mind cheery start,
Offer to see;
Voice sparks a trend,
Etchings of art;
Meet and attend,
Echo each part;
Note how things flow,
Thrills outlive show.

Voice a fond feel,
Ask love to play;
Live joy that heals,
Explore sure stay;
Now as we merge,
Time after time;
Intuit a surge,
Note profound rhymes,
Enjoy the light.
Apt as feelings:
Lost in sure flight,
Opt grand seeing;
Voice beyond birth,
Etchings of mirth.

Blooms in sure dance
Rise to greet dawn;
Ideas fling chance,
Etchings of morn;
Focus of breeze.
Cool feelings blend;
One windy squeeze
Now primes intent;
Touch of wild hint,
Inspires a tone;
Niche in fine mint,
Urge swirls and hones;
Urgent this take:
Mind seeks to make.

When the yellow fan quiets
the still night creeps forward
the panic of midnight arrives.
The crickets can't carry
a tune built on nothing
The moss fresh with dew can't help thrive.
I wonder 'till morning
I knew you before
The etchings my brain fascinates.
I pace fast and fury,
I wonder, I worry
My love is decideably late.
Form:
Etchings of sincere thoughts
written down in time
so not to abandon their meanings.
Explosive feelings
falling ardently to paper
agonizing with each ache and affliction.
We right any injustice,
defend each analysis,
and plead toward understanding.
Amid life’s occurrences,
our audience takes in our wisdom
studying with rapt attention.
Hollow,
carved out emptiness
replacing shake-able joy,
until it's just a gnawing ache.
Grieving streaks
drip in streams,
Covering my trembling face in
broken, bleeding etchings.
A crushing burden,
to breathe in the morning,
and carry as the sinking sun
dips below the fading horizon.
Another day, another loss.
A bitter pill to take.
