mild mystifying maiden
modish at midnight...

Warm clothing in mystifying layers
Portrait painted by mist and light
Naked branches catch the sun
Ice crunches underfoot  
Noisy crows protest
Breath ghostly white  
Squirrels chatter
Head home
Numb...

Nightingales nocturnes nurture
Everyone’s erroneous existence equipping earth’s enchantment
Harboring habitual happiness hearts
Projecting plentiful peace plus positivity
Mystifying mankind materializing maternal masses…...

Your seduction gnaws at my soul...
It crawls through my defenses...
Mystifying my senses...
Bamboozling my thoughts...
Down is up...
Right is wrong..
But worst of all,
Wrong is right...
Because I am in love with you......

plucking, swimming, migrating 
            web-footed, tame 
                       goose

Enchanted sequins move with laser precision
Sensationally choreographed pyrometrics dance
Mystifying wingless flight of earthbound spirits
Steadily intensifying blurred colors streak by
Blades defy gravity suspended on breaths

My love, my world revolves around
your mystifying gazelle eyes--
When you look at me
My day begins,
When you lower them
My sun sets!

gentle, dreamy
moaning, searching, caressing

Better days come

What a nice sunrise

Struck my eyes

Mystifying colours

Orange with a hue of yellow

Glowing as the sun

Rising out the ocean

Oh, my eyes will miss

The wonderful things

That I can only glimpse upon

When the brighter day

Has just begun?...

You are in the shadows, 
I hear your faint cries, 
I feel the chill, 
As you rush by.
When did you die?  
This manifestation of yours, 
Informs me, 
That you come from your grave, 
This mourns me. 
Is that you? 
Where will you go too? 
What will you do?  
A ghost,
Or, merely a hoax? 
Mystifying....

Form above tears slowly falls into the ocean,
Rippling sounds into the night’s sky, like a sea lions raw emotion.
Beneath its floors human search’s for hidden treasures,
Yet we its true, and mysterious  inhabitants fall into its mystifying pleasures.
Everything is tranquil and is set into a beautiful motion....

The silhouettes of the mountains reveal a face
Enveloping the irises with a mystifying gaze
Far into the depths—lost faces are revealed
The spirit of the empty and lost—reveled  
And as the darkness burns throughout the night
One is left with a sense of reverence for the forms
One is left with a tempest—elevating the soul...

Cast A Long Shadow
Lying in my bed dying,
Not wanting to let go.
Everyone keeps crying.
Seeing myself like Van Gogh!
Don't let go its mystifying
Cast a long shadow 
Floating through the air
Doctors scrambling here and there
Nurses working to be prepared.
Cast a long shadow
Sitting in a chair
Beginning to say my prayer...

sleep
for
me
in
a
new
dream
escaped
from me
this reality
assking for questions
one step times two
at
a
time
what
reasoning have you
mountainous landing
at
the
bottom of fall
who crawls to you
for what says whom
how relaxed are we from
broken shame
dont name me
shatterd love
cup myself
mystifying
weep more reality
sleep for me

Plethora of life
In every shape and form
A vibrancy interconnected
Orchestrated covertly
Mystifying and mysterious
Wondrously grandiose
The enigmatic cosmos

Seductive Darkness

Seductive! And I fell 
Without knowing where
Then the light bade farewell.
Instant embrace by mystifying darkness, 
Radiating back nothing cordial
Yet, I knew I was awaited,
Saved by an unheard bell…
The irony of it though,
That it was the light I was saved from
And where I fell, 
Was unspoken, unseen, un-thought
Where I fell,
Was home!

Outer space
The imagination game of the 60’s.
Vast adventure, unknown discoveries,
Unblemished planets, unrealized potential

Rocketing, spiraling, swirling, 
Captivating, mystifying, overwhelming the imagination
Taking us to heights we dare to finally dream about,
Outer space

Rocket ship is stocked and ready to go
A five year plan, possibly never returning.
Who is with me?...
