Opening green wombs...

Flecks,
cushion cut cosmic rhinestones; 
Priceless angles flash, 
catching dreams 
slow....

Strange greens
and burning reds 
in flecks of cobalt blue-
highlighting his painted world of
colour

   I proudly represent my cohort
     now that I'm aging in place

   The gray matter that makes up my brain
     matches the gray flecks on my face...

SLEET NOT RAIN 

not nice ice
flecks from sky
Winter wonderland sass
lords - a - leaping
hot to cold
way too fast

If no man is truly an island,
does that mean we are all linked
by bridges of hope,
or causeways of despair?

Are we just flecks of dust
on this world--
or is each soul
a universe in the next?...

feelings hung to dry
like laundry on the line
emotion and despair
stains that remain there

sometimes spots remain
freckled flecks of pain
splattered all across
that don't come out in the wash...

In you I can see
A gene of unusual disguise
Inbetween the flecks in your eyes,
a dark piece of the sea

Yes indeed, yes indeed,
The ocean has given birth to you
Born from the royal blue,
A child of the sea....

Early spring morning. 
Is it singing just for me?
Tiny flecks of misty magic
tumbling from its beak.
Perhaps its screaming out for mercy.
Beneath a broken wing...
or offering a lullaby to a grey shelled moon....

Inside the aquarium there were plenty of fish in the sea 
dawdling about mouth agape eating and looking at me 
While I stood on a step nose against the glass I did see 
red orange flecks of beauty, swimming sleek and free...

How beautiful it is,
To believe you loved me..
To let your eyelashes blink flecks of stardust on my skin..
Permanently staining me with your essence..
Oh, love. 
It burned at first, just a little
God..
It was worth it....

golden flecks and reflected light

float slowly to the base

caught in hands reaching high

and splash against my face

painting my skin a golder tint

washing cares away

i give them my time to spend

and lay down in their grave...

Dust



                         Flecks of dust awaits gust of abundant wind

                         Destinations unknown just avoiding the rain

gentle kiss of dawn
sheer curtains filter sun rays
touching me with light
golden flecks ride the cool breeze
I wake to daybreaks splendor

Day gives way to night 
The darkening skies
Come alive

Magic flecks across the dark
Twinkling to their tune
Music unsung

A canvas built on dreams
Vibrating with wishes
Secrets told

Glimpsing into the unknown 
Neither here nor there
Just being...

flakes of luscious beauty
a slowmotion downpour
a sprinkling of white flecks
tinkling without a sound
its veil of peace over one and all
in serene silence as if time were eternal

Whispering reeds sway in the breeze
As water flow to meet the boat
On top of which lies golden hair
Exiled for which of unknown deeds
Gently rocking away she floats
As yellow flecks light up the air

She is vivacious, 
Yellow flecks in her eyes intrigue us
Her unleashed excitement is golden
She is nineteen, and confident
She lavishes us with enthusiasm
Her wit flickers like a flame on fire
We are intrigued, excited, alive!
Loving this moment...

When reckoning 
skies loom in 
ashen flecks, 
embers of flames 
bleed repressed rays, 
and demons
of disgrace clamor,
like wailing wind 
against the 
eclipsed dark. 
For light in all 
its glory is the true 
monster disguised
in luminous moonrise....

coloured flecks
on the front door-
peeling away
of memories...
love’s dilapidation

Colored sails dot the horizon
   fire-orange flecks dip and rise in
Turquoise palettes, sherbet skies...

Demigods lounge g-stringed
   in ocean-front's warm sands 
Bulging their muscles
   Glistening their sweat

~ Tan, the sole tint
      they're aware of as yet...

Brittle, till you crack,
Made of bone, you lack
Softness to survive,
Rigid as a rod,
Righteous as a god,
You’re not long alive.

Powdered bone to dust,
Blown with one good gust
Through the withered trees,
Flecks of boney grey,
You float far away
Billowed on the breeze....
