Crown kings progressing up silent street.

claret pearls on the sun's neckline.

Mary's blood rich swollen womb cradles Christ,
embryo wrapped grace of God.

Unique newsman Andy Rooney,
did not look like a George Clooney;
beetling brows grew too much hair,
verbalist extraordinaire.

whipped by wild tropical winds . . .
flower flamencos
in pink, yellow and coral
dance in the flaming sunset

night blooming jasmine--
drifting sultry scent beguiles
windowing inward
the spring blood moon silhouettes
swaying lace clad lake cypress

beam welcoming rays, breaking free;

Politicians are pompous jokes;
not often are they just plain blokes.
They legislate pure ignorance,
while folks prosper on common sense.

I give You my praise,
rising from this heart's altar
pillars of incense
pure fragrance softly spreading
bringing joy to You, my God.

I remember days
when the summer sun smelled sweet--
heat, friendly, fragrant--
gray clouds gathered in our sky
rain washed away our summer

heaped upon a rugged hill
anchors for crosses
precious those stones became the
day Christ's blood dripped slowly down

today's gray tides wash
sands where love's warm feet wandered . . .
i watch the sobbing
surf scour the white surface smooth
leaving only tears of shell

creamy cheesecake inches deep
red strawberry crowned,
mounds of whipped chocolate fluff
cresting almond cake,
maple pecan pie
sticky crunch-
yum!

Powdered gray, the moss,
intricate lace, decorates
giant cypress on the shore
gnarled knees offer post
where watchful birds keep vigil-
holy lake sanctuary.
