Lullabies To the Stars

yellow rice crickets
sing sweet lullabies
to
make 
the  
restless stars
fall asleep
to dream
the
impossible dreams

So restless was Isaac Newton
with physics laws had so much fun
Defining the inertia of truth
shows he was quite a sleuth

Burn our bones, buried
Deep in the cemetery.
Pray for the restless
Ghosts among the living dead:
Awaken those far ahead.

Our last pint of life
imaginary beings
we drink our future
restless humans, sentient souls
shall the 'tweens ever embark?

rain falls on birds' nest
rain falls into rivulet
quiet birds are restless

Ringing of the bells
Vibrate through the cold hallways
Students are restless
Fun is a lost memory
Equations are my rewards

Wide-eyed splendors at night,

Metamorphosis "Beams!"

Restless sleep or waking light...

Star cast visions and "Dreams!"

I’m bored of this scene,
Last ties to be severed now,
Be still or restless,
Reflection takes me back to,
A place I don’t want to be.

Restless Waters

A little leaf floating on restless waters -
      but I'll go where the river takes me
             till I find you out in the sea.

Moonlight and wind chimes,
the thunder is jarring me;
Echoed by the tide 
playing a moody soundtrack 
pulling on my restless soul.

Softer than moonlight
Your footsteps enter the room
But I feel restless
Till you snuggle beside me
Proving you're more than a dream

from desperation's clutches we rose
like a phoenix on blessed wing
free from restless melancholic woes
with clarity our passions sing

My restless spirit
Long to see island's north shore
They share her beauty
Sparkling waters with tourists 
As I plan Nantucket cruise

King of the jungle,
Heart's a beast that never sleeps,
Yet it always dreams;
Tugged by its roaring beats, we
Fathom what seems unreal

All sleep is barren,

With Mother Nature's red crested skies
     displaying brilliant shades -
An awesome sight for my eyes

Merry Martian march,
Ardent adventures adorned;
Restless ravens rasp…
Cozy caressing calmness 
Heavenly harmony haunts

the gargoyle spouted restless streams until 
icicles silenced the steady façade’s faucet 
into perma-frosted solitude in meditation
