Ruddy Illumination

The bedazzling sun
envades the saffron valley
as fog protects elms.

I’m singing honey-
rinsed sunflower serenades
twirling with corn rays…
and I’ll waltz through every fall…
to embrace his saffron warmth

Wilderness Garden

Among dry-stalk yerba-santa,
who could have planted 
these nameless 
flowers in blue and lavender, 
saffron, magenta, 
and sun-spot yellow?

Premium Member Lost and Found

Gunfire wounded
temple time passes by
fleeing dominance, anger,
lovers linger lost
freedom glorified, homage;
saffron incense calls prayer.

saffron cloaks the clouds
as apricot streaks the sky . . .

You are a light on my world
You are love by your looks

Abandoned Love

While the wind 
driving the clouds;
Between the old oak trees.

I Left sadly,
above the bare hill,
two scrawny shadows:
  
For sake a thousand,
hovers' torch,in saffron fields.

Dreamscape of daffodils
Designed in acrylic 
Depicts saffron smeared faith
Dawning of balmy views
Deep pink and purple hues
Drifting through musky air
Darling, you'll find me there

This waning season
                         renouncing its joys clad in
                                                               saffron of a monk

Dreaming

Saffron vanishing from the curved
glass of a lamp, arms and legs 
banked in their sea-swept amber,
and underneath the tawny sand-
here too I am
forever anchored
-in this land 
 of dreaming

East and West

Dawn: 
pink azaleas on the east horizon – 
faded before I could possibly
reach them.

Sunset:
Layers of lavender, saffron, 
lilac, tangerine – a watercolor wash
of sunset beyond darkening 
trees.

Knossos At Night

Dark landscape
Moon-lit ruins 
Guitars sing to you 

Kallístei, 
Hos en álloi kósmoi* 

The temple rises
Saffron on the cliffs 
Aphrodite stands
On the waves 





*For the most beautiful; as if in another world

                                               Beauty of Fall

                                    Flight of leaves, of saffron hue,
                               A crystal beauty, before winter's view.

Take Me Home

I turn my head I catch a glimpse 
saffron flowers floating down 
lying close unto thy grace 
a beauty glow upon a face 

Kiss my soul and carry me 
kiss my lips at sun's last light 
take me home with you tonight

Premium Member Endless Days

the clock ticked slower
in the time of the roses
and saffron sunshine

such chills many thrills
before time gained momentum
in forever fields

lime green foliage
and cerulean blue skies
the gone days recalled
