In tidy closets ~
  Coats hang peacefully,
Quiet, Muffled happiness,
  Beside little shoeboxes,
The cosiest of spaces....

Wander Wander there you are
From your hiding place in Saturn's rings 
You come to Earth to make slaves of kings...

A shadow in the night
that's what you are to me
a flick of light
with my weak eyes
that's what I see
can you leap out from your hiding place
and show me your face?...

the woods a secret
hiding place for herd of deer
scuttles ‘round ‘bout creek
out onto the runner’s road
bested, trudging on her feet

Your mirror is
Within you, 
See the truth.

No strategy
Is on work.
Nowhere find
Hiding place.

Secret is always
The secret, 
No use
Me Too.

Backlog cases
Pending since long
Only for you...

Save me from my fears. 
Save me from these tears. 
Save me from the years
Of strife between my ears. 

Save me from this place.
Save me from this race. 
Save me just in case
I find my hiding place....

your green twitching legs
making music in the grass
not so silently

pinging out at me
and sticking to my shoulder
reacting too late

dive into the grass
your enormous hiding place
i smile at your stealth...

NO HIDING PLACE

I know
Just everything
At least what’s important
Yet that’s my assessment, not yours
Should you deny or try to vacillate
I will ensure it all comes out
Across all media
Embarrassing
I know...

Do you ever wish upon a star
That he will find out where you are
Come and find your hiding place
Make your cold heart start to race
Kiss your cold lips, turn them red
Bring your soul back from the dead...

A quake took place
between my shoulder blades
teeth ground to dust behind my face
the scraping of tectonic plates
scared me to my hiding place
bottles and blankets, a child’s space
it cannot withstand the shakes
that are now all too commonplace....

A briefcase full of sorrow…
  the hiding place of tears

One trade to end all others
   excuse to lie and steal

The papers hide the story
  all documents in vain

As grief belies the glory
  —of a life that deals in pain

soundproof glass houses
surrounded by svelte deer
their only hiding place
amid roaring mechanical monsters
they graze on the green elastic shrubbery
and chew the somber apples off the ground.
Soon a blanket of white dust
and the impression is lost,
the impression of nature....

A fantasy romance across the ocean 
wrapping my tongue around your promise 
lingering kiss on your gentle soul 
take me in now to your secret hiding place 
where you store all your golden love letters 
we will be basking in them 
anointing ourselves with love's glistening oil...

No man on earth can deny and dare, 
Duty to dust and fight to fair, 
for tales tell us if there were a few, 
Brought death over them in despair.

Make not a wall between the bread, 
And those who die of hunger, 
You won't find a hiding place, 
If they make their mind and lunger....

Outside, the leaves are falling,
Carpeting my walk to school with new tactilities.
Treading the glorious kaleidoscope
Of crunching detritus, my 
Bulging eyes glisten as a hidden coin,
Exposed by my foraging feet, 
Reveals its hiding place.

We went walking
among the trees
in the sloping woods
where the chill wind
lost its way.

A search for fallen walnuts.

We shared one mitten,
and finger-danced
in that hiding place.

Other hunters
asked us
if we had found anything?”

Our eyes were secretly bright,
as we answered,
“Yes."...

Love lingers lost
Wandering like a breeze 
Across my lips

Wanting that touch
A presence that heals
Patient reassurance

It seeks always
A warm hiding place
A heart worthy

Eyes that mist
Arms of gentle strength
Companion’s trust

Love lingers hoping
The breeze across my lips
Will be your breath...

In a flash the moment happens
The one waiting with your name 
Attached
Lonely in it's stance 
Calling eternal
It was not in a hiding place
Just over looked 
Taking the time with  inter self
Heavy mass 
Releasing the pass
Moving  forward 
Seeking colored class
Rains feel good 
Protections resting field
 
Spare Moment...

I was the soil in your garden, 
poisoning your fruits
I was the foundation you built your structures on, 
crumbling as they rose
I was the wings you used to fly, 
keeping you from taking flight
I have been found,
in the depths of my hiding place
Now I am banished, 
as you reveal your true face.

Your thunder sang me a love song
I’m left in a state of repose;
With a smile left haunting my face 
fleeting peace I beg you to stay;

Lightning strikes and I sing along
natural energy just flows;
One in a million storm to chase 
my heart mended with disarray;

Watching you from my hiding place 
I feel your rain my soul at play....

Walking in my awakening.
A new understanding
to embrace.
The sunshine glistening
upon my face.
Harmonious music with bass.
Hearing the choir sing
Amazing Grace.
Reaching a new point
in my life in an entirely new place.
No longer carrying the burdens
of yesterday around my waist.
Finding comfort and solitude
in my hiding place....

Nobody runs, nobody hides.
The element of love may not be described.
Not fire.
Not earth.
Not water.
Not air.
It becomes all and none.
Consumed and consuming,
Enveloping, enriching, a hiding place,
Embracing, mutable, a thing of tides,
Vapour, the stuff of breath.
And yet we welcome it.
When it comes,
Nobody runs, nobody hides....

STRAY NO LONGER (quadruple Haiku)

just one kind presence
soft voice and a caring way
on a dismal day

a day of hunger
a day of constant watching
each foreign movement

the boys had thrown stones
hiding place safe no longer
but then    from above

this round    jolly face
a voice would soothe the angels
he’s inside    warm    safe...
