Upon your return
we will write, we will then share.

Perhaps of our fantasies
or of our realities.

the wet sand between our toes
coconut lotion
children running and playing

Many Unhappy Returns

It’s a work day
And it’s my Birthday
All the fours
Male menopause
A Grade - A
Gray Day
Life’s not designed
To be kind
Never mind – eh!

The Sun Knows

Clouds betimes block out the sun
  The sun returns not the favor

Perhaps it knows a thing or two
  Familiarity's not what man savors

Life is just like a boomerang
Give it a whirl and mind the whang
Velocity gain
Quadruple the pain
When it returns from whence it sprang

Into the innocent fertile Soil
Then returns home waiting
Patiently for its germination
He will harvest in joy.

An  August month again returns
To briskly Summer by,
With days of sun
Wind fully blown
As fleeting clouds
     dance their feathery display.

Winter's Return

I hear the gale.
Rain on its tail.
Stock up. Put 'taters in the bin.

A raucous wail.
Tree branches fail.
Winter's fury returns again.

Unfair

May I humbly say a word
Why you make my life so hard
Though I pray for your mercy
Never you send returns I see
Is it not quite unfair my Lord

The Strand

along the strand
a pale mist
     a thinning haze..
footprints 
evaporate 
     on the flood tide...

innocence 
             returns

Or the rains come

And hope returns

And rising out of the ashes

Ravens morph into Pheonix

Urit Memoriae

Caught inside a memory,
with flashbacks of desire

Your scent returns as lightning
—my heart a copper wire

Mysteries of Time

Time always tells the same story:
That time flies, and love is fickle
And life is time, light, passing.
 time comes, but it never returns..

Life In a Grave

Once it is gone
What can I save
Nothing returns
Life in a grave
Trying to hold on
Death cannot take
Forever will live
Love that we make

Gazing At Spring

Flowers blossom on this side of the Earth
for they have been longing their rebirth
Looking at nature in full glow
warmth returns like a river's flow

Audience of One

Writing for confirmation,
  all words now zero-sum

As each returns, my ears embrace,
  —an audience of one

Returns

Midst fear and doubt 
When prayers have ceased
Unannounced 
Without a sound
Returns the clouds
And falls the rain
Again on barren ground
