Evening
The heat of a gruelling day
Dissolves into dusk
Sifts yellows and gold
From the parched brown earth
Into the colours of the sea...

Sand grains in my hand
Draining away swift
Eternal intent
In form that now sifts

The Stillness of the Night Awakens Souls
The Stillness of the Night Awakens Souls
The hourglass sifts gently, day to night,
And visions lost ‘till darkness, now take flight.

Wails of a Fiery Soul
Flames sifts and seizes all, mankind’s desires burns through all
All is exchanged for fire, for fire is the highest priced gold
With a pearl within the flickering flames, still and wailing...

Sift
loneliness sifts and drifts in light and shadow
hope always just a valley behind
with a mountain top to scale
never to glimpse
tendrilled fingertips pull deep
from within
drowning in not being...

In Shadows Greys
as day slips into even
and sun draped winds
now evoke a midnight glove
where kissed dew
turns pirouette
on rosened cheek
air is took and chosen
Universal pinpricks
seem to lead the way
nigh time sifts
in shadows greys...

Lacquered Lace
Softly silver snow sifts, soundless,
lattice-like, a lacquered lace of layering light,
startling sparrows, shyly shivering for shelter,
on leafless, lustered limbs - lancets, londonite.

Mocha
Feisty gulp
A hot cup
Mocha dawn
Moves deep yawn
Cold air drifts
Warm drink sifts
In a dash
Warm gut stash
Mocha joy
Swirls fond ploy
Autumn cold
Warm hands hold

Melancholy Wishes
my mind sifts through
these memories of you
the bad and the good
short times that we knew
sometimes happy
most times blue
melancholy wishes
that won't come true
so I pack them away
the lid still askew
finally, turning my back
on my love for you...

Bliss
He turns the page
Unaware, he digs
Her up, his treasure
Just out of reach.
He sifts the skin
Of her words
Each expression
Illuminates
The delicacies,
The connection.
His concentration
Easily bears the weight,
Of the increasing
State of his bliss....

End play
Prompts say
Dig deep
Boom sleep
Sure blast
Run fast
Blunt brief
Hurt grief
Dream drifts
Spice sifts
Last call
Purge gall
Past tense
Moves sense
Now trend
Grim end

Tomb
The night falls
Dust from a thousand years
Accumulating on that which the eyes once saw
Obscuring
Still the breeze
Silence the sound
She sifts into the gaping mouth
Nil the breath
Fill the body with her shadow
To sleep for ten thousand more
This black tomb....

The View From Here
These eyes the world sifts harshly through,
see what I want them to believe.
***************
through life glistened eyes
glimpses of a desert road…
view from a mirage

Renaissance
Rain falls wet upon my body,
I lay half-dormant in the gutter of my mind.
Unable to move, it worsens
Striking cold and hard.
Then brightness sifts through parting clouds,
And the sky begins to glow.
I rise, stretch and go my way
As your warmth dries my weary soul....

Second Dead Note
Like drums, guitars, keyboards and pianos
They run on a string of notes.
That reaches the limits of unlocking astonishments…
The sound sifts to obtain dead notes
And you are left in an incurable feeling,
Until its destruction.
By ignorance the notes will never leave your circle...

Easy
Now set free

Feel fear flee
Poise
Frames choice
Beyond noise

Wise flow
In true glow
Joy
Funds toy
In grand ploy
Fest
Greets zest
To forge jest
Lift
Fond gift
That love sifts

Quietude
Calm is the night
Where moon shines bright
Watch for a touch
That fills so much
Discard odd choice
Word in slow poise
A voice sifts sleep
In echoes deep
Cheer floods and fills
Whispers odd spills
Quiet time here
Can speak so clear

Time's Vacation
Spring's here.
Birds sing as they flutter.
Honey drips from the sky.
Plants explode like champagne.
Sun penetrates my soul.
It runs like a river through my veins.
Flushing out the winter frost.
Barbecues drift through mossy fences.
Invisible pleasure sifts past me.
Time slows down, practicing for summer....

The Sea
The warm sand sifts between my toes
The water sees what no-one knows
Because I whisper to the waves
Deep things that hurt from hidden caves
When the waves do crash upon me
I float with power of the sea
I overcome hurdles to be
Those are the rocks, I am the sea
