my sentinel cat
lies in watch at the window...
a vagrant, strange pet
approaches from the outside...
encounter at the border
Florida’s lodestar -
stellar sun, famed
sentinel
sabal

SUMMER’S END
one gorgeous red rose
aflame in the morning sun
throbbing all alone
both sentinel reminder
and summer’s glorious end
last summer rose
a sentinel holding vigil-
crisp leaves
colored
leaves falling on brown grass-
wood fire
This brave
front door
mighty fortress
stands sentinel
keeping my secrets
"H A L T !"
It demands
"Who goes there?"
Its orders
obeyed
In times of need you are my guiding light.

what the snowman knew
about the stars in the snow
hidden underfoot...
the sentinel sun’s hush money
good until the carrot falls

Sun;
sizzling sentinel of the skies,
scorcher of worlds,
sits in splendour;
shooting sublime shadows across the
speckled sheet of time.

A sentinel
Celestial pearl
Hung in silence
Over the velvet
Of a midnight sky
A solitaire
Free spirit
Lunar splendor

Flaming
as a beacon-
our sentinel in the dark.
For happy times, along with sad-
a gift for ambiance.
Fog gathers-masked rocks
A sentinel poised above
Ever fixed light beams

white wolf sentinel mourns on frozen drifts
as a scarlet river steals
the pulse of a Nation

SAVE THE WOLVES
On the front line stands a man
set
to give last breath
He walks in death’s dark shadow
brave
the sentinel
a keen watchman
fulfills solemn oath
who watches out for him?
~*~
lazy on the beach
your hat is over your eyes and you are
sleeping
just worn out
thankful for the quiet of no
music
or
screaming children
I guard your rest like a sentinel
aqua water swirls
salt sprayed air licks dry sea oats
quick pelican gulps

as moonlight streams through their limbs . . .

I'm Etcetera,
the sentinel
at the gate
of the realm
of Fancy.
This is the kea
of the gate,
I open
the gate
and you
enter this realm
and get
yourself lost
in fancy-
I'm Etcetera!

searching, wading, fishing

Sentinel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
winter dusk descends—
a sodium-vapor halo
holds the dark at bay
concrete sentinel
casts long, lonely geometries
on rain-slicked asphalt
.
The sentinel cats
Guard post tip top of the house
Growing winter coats
Seeing a hawk diving,
a jackrabbit running from
deadly shadow – I am reminded
that, the desert is no place for casual,
pointless strolls~ the cactus a still sentinel
only for its barbs. A near rattle tells me,
beat-it!
Euphoric Amatrice once stood proud
among smaller towns below and around,
it's dominering belltower was tall;
it's clock sleek and strong amazed all...
how she fought weather and time
more than a sentinel keeping an eye.

Crow sentinel watch
Caw, caw, remove beak fly____boom
Tail feathers float down
An Oak
a soul aging,
splendorous sentinel,
an entity peeking through bark
just long enough to impress my tired eyes;
recognizing it I smile back...
generous are the trees,
new spirit friend
an oak.
