orange pinwheel twirls
circus of color protrudes
burnished tent hovers...

pinwheel milky way
freeze the upward path of night

attached 
to its twig
by a wiry
petiole
lucky leaf
twirls
like a pinwheel
in the 
breeze...

midnight horizon 
trees move like finger puppets
stars pinwheel golden
death looms in homey shadows 
like worms writhing in a tomb

Purple Pitcher Plant
       
                                      Stem on a pinwheel,
                                      An origami bonnet,
                                      Organza petals....

           Early Sunday, sweet.
           Pinwheel, still,birds eat their treats.
           Cats fight, Sunday's meet.

Our love.
A rhapsody,
Pinwheel of magic....
Your golden horned, soft laughter
    Spinning
         Prancing
               Turning,
       Sliding
Into my world of candy dreams!
Dazzled, 
My heart sighs for you!
My love a rhapsodizing imbalance!

Give me the truth
That’s all I ask
Whether it hurts
Whether it heals
Whether it spins me
Like a pinwheel
Give me the truth
So I can deal with what’s real
Find closure or new beginnings
Open or closed doors
Forgiveness that waits
It’s never too late

Your golden-horned soft laughter
          Spinning
               Prancing
                    Turning 
                            Pinwheel of magic       
                                             Sliding...

She came riding in on a goat
Wearing pinwheel glasses
With three lenses
One for her third eye
Is it the LSD?
Or is she real?

I watched her march around
Calling out orders, barking like an inflamed wolfhound
She was all colorful, psychedelic
I found myself laughing
Wait!
The police!
What?...

will to be diff’rent
fractals with cursive curlicues
cream-colored overalls

ostracized by nuns
and formal catechisms
with habitual fashion sense

now I’m in control
spinning like a pinwheel
with poetic enunciation

showed them, showed them all
i could take off my uniform
it’s monotone gray

My  tiny daughter
Brenna
hails the morning

      out-stretched arms
        catch the breeze
she
twirls like a merry pinwheel
 dreamy lashed eyes closed
   head-cocked
   harmonizing
           birdsongs

Buttercup pollen
   kisses 
pink
   toes
while the Sun
adores her

lets roll into sweet wet grass, 
feed each other serpent and seed
grow strong beautiful wings
sing long -fly far far away
where the horizon joins hearts 
to a starry starry sea
a
place of emerald nests
fasten tight to gilded branches
in the glow of divinity
lets spin love until the sky turns black,
till 
we 
frolick into a froth,
pinwheel love into a higher 
energy...

Moonbeam tree in full swing in spring;
Adds ambience a lot of zing;
Embellished with pinwheel flowers;
Tumbled down many in showers;

Dissipated its white blanket;
Around like a silver anklet.
Scented breezes spread all over;
Beauty can't be taken over.

                         Multicolored treat.
                         Huge pinwheel at my deck seat.
                         Spinning, Spring treat.

Circles of Thoughts

above me clouds swirl
as I watch the pinwheel twirl
moving thoughts around

No Escape

there is no escape
an ant caught in a puddle
trying not to drown

Protection

a robin attacks
defending her lovely nest
squirrel jumps and runs

Cherry Tree

cherry tree blossoms
a white cloud blowing in wind
red polka dots soon

The pinwheel spins rapidly, controlled by the wind
Sadly, as some people allow themselves to be 
But, there is no freedom in that kind of movement
For no other should have the power of the wind in such a way
Instincts are like shining gems of truth deep inside
Precious to behold, yet still to take notice as the pin wheel stops
Then it is time to be led with the sparkle of one’s own soul

pages turn in blackened winds
time looks on and shares a grin

pinwheel spinning silent songs
of endless nights of endless loss

a tear conceived -unrecognized
a trail of salt on keyboard vines

starlight paints frosted eulogy
white roses whirl in arctic seas

suffering through blueing ecstacy
sparkling pinnacles of heart valleys

skipping stones over diamond shoals
kissing perfumed nape while breaking bones

when {grave} becomes the home
a star sighs out of key...

Sounds of a squeaky swing.
Cat paws ballet dancing on
a wooden fence.
Lawn mowers, singing, happy 
through tall grass.
Songs of my neighbor, as she cooks 
breakfast.
A darling dog barks, not wearing a 
mask.

Woodpecker's back... Knocking on 
tree doors.
People outdoors without masks chat.
The pond in back bubbles,
beautifully.
The winds on the huge pinwheel sing 
"Spring is here", in colored, tonal, artistry!
