She being
curvaceous in view
agog, I'm
at hands length
she turns, I'm captured, entranced
my love, my bride, she

The feverish sun
stretching out atop the sea
sinks, at length, to sleep

Cats have eighteen toes,
jumps 6 times their length, no sweet
tooth, nearsighted, calms

I looked around the room, across length and breadth. I looked around the room, I found the most stupid man and I gave him my heart
Form:
The tale of a star
travels the circle, in life’s
blinking of an eye.
Destination to beyond
found in this sacred small space.
Rain whispering
in the gutter -
gossip passed along
its length all night
until finally being
silenced
by the downpipe.
Jet black satin gown
with tiny crystals sewn upon.
Silver disk at her waist.
It's length trails out eternal.
The night dresses well.
Wood nymphs flittering;
All faerie wood emblazon;
Day lends length to night,
Impish pumpkins flicker winks;
As cats creep shadowed black.
Fear of God
The Crackling ice
Put the fear of God in you
When you see a
A crack under your feet
Run the length of the ice.
Cold Hearted
Your cold indifference
Keeps me at arm’s length
Perhaps the warm rays of my love
Will melt your icy heart
length width height form space
and the fourth dimension of
past present future
Too late for words I need to say
Not knowing the length of our highway
That turns into mountains of clay
When your hardened walk goes astray.
The moon is misted with rain,
And moon-tears dribble and drain
The length of the sky. They fall
Into the Big Dipper, that catches them each and all.
The moon is misted with rain,
And moon-tears dribble and drain
The length of the sky. They fall
Into the Big Dipper, that catches them each and all.
It’s not “I’ll do what I can”,
That defines for women, her man
Nor his strength
Nor hair length.
It’s the “you’s” ... not me’s” ... of his plan
Ever thought that a watch
is a device
we have programmed
to duplicate a length of time
that we decided existed
Just take a sec
just not one of yours
Faith comforted her soul
During the time of need, she took a knee
Eyes up, head down
Blessings reigned down upon her halo
Ascension is but a prayer away
Politicians love to speak at length,
though brevity is not their strength.
They promise wonders bright and new,
then form a committee or maybe two.
( Aus government says)
Suicide is your best option
Or we intervene.!
Choices have a shelf life
Choose wisely choose at length!
Reply suddenly (to death?)
Behold the neck of a giraffe
Long enough to make you laugh
Can stretch over the fence in zoo
To find munchy leaves to chew
Of it's length I'm not even half!
Buddha cast in bronze
--- heaped high w/ new-fallen snow ---
smiles unfazed, dwindles
cross-legged in the garden
under the sky's vast length, breadth.
Today I’m grateful for understanding…
(and I can talk or write about this at length)
that the gentleness of our spirit
will always be…our greatest strength.
I've posted a new short story.
Because the length of pieces we can post here is crazy limited.

I avoid people who try to put me in their category ~~
when I know in my heart who and what I am.

BIRDLIME
There I was in the ocean of love
Amidst mysteries, going deep in its cave
No length
No strength
Finally met the historical love dove
