My father is dead
I kneel by gray winter seas
Fjords echo my rage
Grief swoops down from the heavens
Like hawks grabbing prey

Drop out from school at
ten after parent demise,
he hawks and picks purse;
floor serves as bed ;cloud blanket,
while leaders squander the wealth.

The fields have been swept clean
Round hay bales decorate the corners
Dry straw looking grass going dormant
Hawks search hoping for field mouse delicacy

grey wolves devour me
golden hawks must devour you

To the ladies,
my youth
To the children,
my love
But to forever,
my words
Hawks that fly
—with the doves

Saturday
A soft gray backdrop
For the barren trees
Stick fingers search
For a lost friend
Squirrels hide
In plain sight
As grounded hawks
Await a wind

a mammal scurries to hide

I know a comedian named Rudy
Had a gaggle of fans he called 'Cuties'
New jokes his Cuties offend
Which Rudy never intends
So Rudy hawks crosses in Djibouti

PLAIN SERENGETI
Zebra herds nudge babes along
Low slung sun burns shaded eyes
Shallow pools hide fish from hawks
Peace of Paradise

Dreams of prelude setled in
Befor the day had ended,
Their entrancing ways began
As hawks in a steady state,
Fluttering wings
Befor they dip
And glide through open ways
Unhindered.

Hawks spy chicks: Vultures spy cadaver
Bats! repulsive dangling terrestrial
Eagles--vision: Nightingale--soul sound

The Sea Hawks each one vowed
You know what we love is a loud
Huge, incredible and great crowd
We made all the people very proud.
Go Sea Hawks.

Sky – quakes
Air-whales’ flipper prowls
Obscurity rakes…
Bidding adieu
Dark Mountain Hade-shades
Fears brew…
Unfastened hawks
Times’ temperature snow-cold
Gloom rocks…

Verse
his distant still palette
of ambient light
painted the silence
of hawks in the night
catching a sadness
that hides in plain sight
in an air of detachment
that hints at their plight.

The sun was setting level
With a rolling fog
Upon a roost
Two hawks sat
As on a log
The upper most
dove off into space
Leaving the other
in its place
And watched the sun sink deeper.

Hazed horizons
hanging low,
Lines of clouds
that start to go
Higher till their over head.
Trilling notes from hawks
on high
Riding winds
within the sky,
Call the sun to bed6-19-

Just as birds fly,
so too
souls of
poets and prophets,
teachers and trainers,
the learned and the unlearned.
Moving through doors
past - present - future.
Gliding as hawks do,
from one world
unto the next.

Sun slips across on aquamarine canvas
Over oak trees laden with Spanish moss,
While hawks and vultures circle overhead
Seeking prey among the grazing cattle.

Idyll (Idyl)
The wind chortled
Just passing through
Teasing the ripples to white tips
Swaying trees twerked in her gusts
Hawks shrieked on a roller coaster down draft
Sunning turtles watched the duck down fly
Dragonflies didn’t

cloud calling rock range
nimble footed hideaway--
climbers cold mistress
stony faced beauty
brilliantly immutable--
renders me breathless
hawks moon-shadow leap
glacial peak to sky unscathed--
cannot hide from me

Belief in the end…
if truth be your cross
To break or to bend
veracity’s cost
Last judgment your own
hawks chase as doves fly
One choice to atone
—when free of all lies
