Premium Member Imagination

This book of botanical images
in sepia depict the petals, veins, leaves
of exotic plants.  Listed alphabetically are illustrations
with a reader's favorites’ marked with string;
carefully indexed, scientific, dun-drab
they conceal the dream of translucent petals,
leaves that reflect green light, adaptive roots.

In idle fancy, a dreamlike flower unfolds
upright from the page.

Premium Member Pixilation

Perhaps life is made of pixels,
Indexed frame by frame so that the gods may
Xerox the parts they like for use
In the multiverse, ~if such a thing  exists~
Likely not, but I like to think 
Another me is living life in the upper
Trade winds of fortune and fame,
Intent on becoming THE poet laureate
Of the Universe and beyond into the ether,
Not withstanding the winds of fortune blow in circles.

Behind the Dark Cloud

When the sky goes black,
And the clouds, less gay,
The sun hides, shining from the back;
Jesus is always my stay.

Tho' life be grim, or vexed,
Nothing can foil His plan.
In Christ is my future indexed,
Starting me each day with a flan.

The Lord's never scarce to save.
Nearest when my strength is gone.
He lends a hand or a stave,
And lets my cares withdrawn.

Jesus is never asleep in the stern
When my boat jolts in the storm.
