in twilight’s garden
lumened shoots from evening's soil…

Shifted child 
hither and away
ripped roots clipped
soil untended
uncertain tender shoots
beneath the snow
fear spring thaw

Harvest

Green shoots unfurling promising their gifts
   Earths bounty for all creatures
   Gives providence divine.

Love (Shoots From the Hip)

when doubt hurt anger
rise between us
when the and in you and me
may change to versus

then love smiles first
and asks questions later

In the Eye of the Beholder

If it jump starts me
If it shoots deep in my soul
That is great music

Or if it cries out
Or laughs and pierces my soul
That is a poem

Moose with huge antler rack
Graceful as he roams on grassy

Walking Through It Now

As shades lengthen, while shoots up
The last, most intense of
Day's luminous image
So does wickedness increase
With all of its fury
At the end of an age.

Result of Envy

Seeing him successful
Jealous rises 
Hate joins 
Envy  completes
Gun shoots
He dies
Good bye.

Light breeze fills the air
Warm sun shines so high

I
mystery in seeds:
real to me, small, flat gourd seed
now, shoots at window smile

a meter from window
three weeks: hi from window

That rapscallion wears the most handsome boots.
When he aims he kills whatever he shoots.
Wears a blue mask.
Brings his own flask.
Millionaire from items he loots.
