 hurrying to the south
 blustery winds, chilled and cold like ice,
 winter's huff and puff....

In the un-engraven word
Muddling tensions persist.
Joy labors not,
But joy can be found through labor.
The grays are shining at night.
The grays are shining at night....

Sun recedes earlier each day as fall gives way to winter.
Vibrant colors of my favorite trees recede in sympathy.
Death of light and color usher in the cold grays of darkness....

To watch the sunset
 after a cold winter's day
the hued colors pale
 in subtle purple grays
blushing peach and pinks
 to paint light brush strokes
on the February sunset watch....

Smiling, I cross the facade.
Mottled, the evening violets
wane -- into a subtle fusion
of smoothly muted grays.
A thin sheen of water lies
fallow Upon stone cobbles.

Hues of blue
uncountable in
number
immeasurable in Beauty
Whites and grays as well
All of water
All from Him
The Gateway!


There is no Sky
in
Hell!

wee frosted mirror queen
with cherished  frozen tundra
sharing winters grays

a glamorous lake
appeals to ice skaters
protecting her fish

wee frosted mirror queen
reflecting verdant treetops
sweet January...

Clothe me in grays of pain!
Dead sun's ember
cannot warm a heart cold
with detachment.
Solitude, closest friend,
you remember
the days I walked life's road
with contentment.

The riff smiled first,
as the raff smiled back

Each knowing the other,
the white from the black

“They’ll never accept us,”
they both would exclaim

“The ‘grays’ have the mantle,
defiled and profane”

(Dreamsleep: May, 2021)...

Farewell summer, hello to fall
let trees turn colors in display
gather corn, pumpkins, and the hay
dance to the light of full moon glow
this is autumn to remember 
cool and dry, sky blues and cloud grays
this is the season fast away....

solstice
light becomes dark
saddened sun hides early
grieving grays grace blankets of rain
body glove of muscle aches, sorrow scarf 
comfort in numbness, in stillness
sun smiles, warmth startles
dark becomes light
solstice

A valentine be childish not
'Tween lovers or 'mongst friends
For rebirth of the kindness brought
Does truly mend past rents.

So as I pass the days near you
With freshness in my dreams
I know from grays come skies of blue
Like seasons' change it seems....

A penumbra of lightning
grays your belly,
a huge melon
framed in leaded glass windows.

It grows
as we move in night's soft storm,
air piquant with rain, legs
petrified tree roots
in this patch of bed,
farmers in the night
      coming back to the land....

I cut to see the blood.
To bring colour to my life.
Because life has turned so dull and gray...
Just grays and blacks and whites... 

I cut to see the blood. 
To remind me that I'm still alive. 
I forget my body is still here...
because my soul has long since died....

These shadows fall
  stretching out inch by inch
  tracing the sun movements
mid-morning grays 
 cast below tall oaks 
 and sugar maples
where whispers haunt the ground
 silent effigies of images lost
 faded into shadows
memories that walk
 in forgotten times....

Like spears of light such bright bolts born;
the buds of daffodils are formed
Within a fine green glade of shafts,
the buds of Marches blooms do blast

Removing gloom of browns, grays,
obliterating dreary days,
most fair salute, glorious dawn;
the day the daffys buds adorn....

Manic canvas daze
Splashing teary blue
Handprint red
Torn out strands of aging grays
Emotions of tirades spent

Manic canvas daze
Cherry change of mood
Orange ray kisses spread
Green sorrys spray
Yellow smiles meant

Manic canvas daze
Really only white or black...

swirls of blues grays and greens
suround me in a fortress fit for a queen
the noises so foreign to me
where am i the beautiful sea
petite as a butterflies wing
to me the prettiest thing
purples pinks and greens
so beautiful, so serene
rise high like a tower
what is it, a flower...
