Halts to stare into the dark
On the edge of trees...

I Will Be
I Was
Never Again
Too Late, Too Far
Not Me, Not Enough
No Way
Without regard, the train halts

And Here, I Am........

He stands before the giant tank,
until it halts,
and then, like a goliath,
climbs aboard,
and to the solider whispers,
peace....

Not fearing God
A lot 
Some odds 

Lord isn’t a dot 
A lot 
He halts 
Some he holds 

Bold 
He is God 
Holds
To send in many folds 
No doubt...

Grumbling as my technicolor life halts with the current,
Embracing your flickered laughter in candlelight conversation;
Descended in darkness, I notice true light flows from you....

Air
Billows
Crisp coiled curves
Dawn dances on

Gusts gain
Human halts
In impish ilke

Righteous cleaning crusade clashes,
Make sure that your mania matches.
All must serve at our behest!
In this unbound purging quest.

Others' motives be assumed,
Adverse dispositions doomed.
Blame, demands, uncaring halts,
Justified by end results....

Goldfinch pair visit
birdbath seeking cool water....
water way too deep

male Goldfinch inches
down Willow Tree limb to bath...
fear enters halts plan

male Nuthatcher drinks
water from swallow birdbath...
Goldfinch pair learn fast...

J-ust erase the morbidity, 
H-ygiene halts the annoyance; 
E-very move of humanity
N-icely shows social distance.

S-top the silent spread, 
U-pend the rabidity; 
Y-ou should go ahead, 
O-bliterate the
M-orbidity.

This spectacular location.
Keep looking for grace.
Always and continually.
All of us noted the creative ideas.
That brings a sense of joy.
These are my main worries.
That halts your progress.
Making up for the emptiness.

I am confined in four walls in summer afternoons.
I am desperate to go out but 
the encroaching heat halts me.
Now, I can understand,
 the wiggling and plight of an innocent bird ,
who wants to conquer the sky, 
but forced to an enclosure.
Happy Environment Day!!

      A mask to conceal
         a costume to hide behind
      A dozen laughs kill the pain
         a couple drinks anesthetize 

      Any way it’s sliced or diced
          a band-aid halts the blood
       Though memory lurks in darkling queue
          to ope all wounds anew

Your lips filled with pink juices,
do not let me touch you.
Come near me in my arms.
Do not panic now.

Let my halts touch me 
give me your hugs.
Let me embrace you.
Do not you be ashamed of me.
Make me yours,you too beloved.

Your lips filled with pink juices,
Do not let me touch you....

When he is all popular and confident, 
Aproaching you 
But halts halfway when you turn to look,
His eyes soften and smile's gentler 
And it reminds you of the way your dad looks at your mom
And for the very first time you know exactly, for a moment, what your mom feels when your dad looks at her...

All the stars rest
Leaving the sky lonely
And to hide does the lunar crest
And the the sun shines only
In on golden rays
A maiden does a waltz
And in the break of days
She suddenly halts
A silence true
as the sky turns blue
The lady of the light
Burns out the night
And starts the day a new...

Puppets watching day and night with hidden murderous intention;
To cast the ray of light that stops his heartbeat. 
If his breathing halts suddenly in his sleep, 
then the wind knows who the culprits are.

And if by his former belief, they'll take his breath, 
Then, no one in this land will be safe....

FEATHER PREDICTION

~
~ light ~
sails
a plume
plucked in air
bride traces its fate
whimsical wind commands a waltz
halts in mid-step, releases her waist, lets her down slow
smitten, the pretty lady catches the feather on her white glove, a wedding day kiss

Time
On its conveyor belt
Moves me
Past the cherished things of life
That waits
Other spectators on this path
To yawn
And crumple with their desire
And then
To come behind my voyage
Conquered
By what we thought we would
Conquer
Until age halts us, and the belt
Waits
For death to board and select
Those
Shrinking from the gate....

bounty bicycle belched
in crimson crest
wielding moaning wheels
of saucy spree:
taunted tracks moan
tainted tyre's moor

fiery feelings fondling
per punctured pills
merging mystic mist

hideous hood hankering
with halts shuddering
like triturated tits

"roll'n rustic rims
felon wind riding."
