The Edam's sailing through the air,
and Cheddar skims my head,
I duck to miss the Danish Blue,
but Brie hits me instead.

faint cloud's shadow, slow motion.

blue sky migrant skims springtide…,
they shun green meadows

Your darted arrow of Venus impales
Our demise persists through our veins
The echo in my heart is hopeless
What is love when death skims the surface?

the water strider
skims the creek - constant coaxing

Touch with me the new draw
and obfuscate new hope
Darkened clouds will be
your new mistress
riding high on the celestial plain
She skims her eyes on you
like a piled cumulus
waiting for the dry bones of winter

He dreams in electric themes
draping around the armchairs
he wheezes down time
Across feral fields his eyes skims
the scenery
His shadow silhouetted by the evening sun
aware of the amolaly
recalling a spectral youth

I climb shelves
Looking for the right pair
And squeezing two between
He closed me amid the wreckage
The moving metal skims my bones
Jumping from the scene,
My ankles break for you
My heart leaps for you
My body is crushed for you

she writes, deletes, writes
he skims and scans rainbow lines
love flies with blue plumes

UNKNOWN STILLNESS 2
To know that control
Is but a sweeping touch of fear
From the monkey mind
That skims and flirts from
A thousand passing thought patterns
Masquerading as truth

As i languish in your lunar lick
moonbows hovering in petrol scented skims
coping with copious crescent chapters
Fooling its full face with greying mists that etch like moving scars and wrinkles
Sat in your light, keep me watching while slowly stealing seconds

"Grey Rock"
skims a frozen lake
the surface never cracks
complex post tenure stoic
disorder done delivered dead
deliberate do not disturb
listen silence loudly shrouds
walking dead half in
shadow world half out

He looks so forlorn
Always reading, always, now
Rarely looking up
In his night reaching
He skims over my surface
Touching what he wants
Protecting my heart
I curl up, hiding again
He begs to come in
I want the feelings
They are no where to be found
Tucked into corners

Swung somewhere outside of the rhythm.
Life season flavor, a joy to savor, is sublime.
Produced upon the pristine sabulous shore.
Simply aware of cloud skims steep and soar.

Crystalline colors
cascade over smooth, worn rocks,
sun skims the surface.
The ancient creek flows,
dancing upon waterfalls,
as the seasons change.
Glorious to see,
as smooth liquid jewels may run,
melting in the sun.
Eternal beauty
this peaceful running wonder,
leaving me in awe.

A love adorn
Hatred skims the wall
A heart forlorn
And angels fall.
As days wear on,
Time passes by
A love so worn
Yet unable to travel
Over torturous miles ahead.
A heart scarred by hurt,
A love torn from trust,
Two hearts once won,
Are now only a loss
As one walks on
The other walks away

I do not know?
An eagle soaring high, I watch him in the sky,
slowly he circles, looking for his prey,
suddenly he dives, majestic in his splendor,
just when it seems he might crash into the ground
he skims along instead, his claws reaching down;
Up he flies, with his prize clutched in strong claws;
Dinner for the day.

life is a playful flying fish..
a dazzling glider that skims
and ricochets along
the surface of the sea..
on a silvery day..
sinks down, gone for a while
but is seen once more..
darting out of the water..
playing forever more..
on a silvery day!

I saw it in a film: his city is beautiful.
Snow is everywhere, the trees are crowned
with it, and ice skims the harbor,
frosts ships, going nowhere. Even when
he held me, there was ice in his heart,
Ice in the pale blue of the washed-out
sky beyond his closed eyelids, ice
beading his vodka skin, and
"You are hot," he said, "Hot,
hot, hot..."

Sweet flux of rippling stream’s dulcet strain
stunning mythic creeks dream haze
stone amulets graze mohs
scale of gold rush hardness
svelte limb pink bouquet clouds
span azure blue awning’so heavenly cascade
sedge-warbler skims grass shoots
springtime speeds snowdrop surge

He stood on such bandy legs, shaking,
I thought he would fall. His cigarette
Puffing like the grey white clouds above.
A lone heron flies high and jagged
Like the tips of the mountains
That brush this clouded sky, and surround the sea
Where our ship skims the shore with its
Light, a star rising from the blue black depths:
Can we wait until the sun sets?

When finally he falls asleep
He skims along from dream to dream
Across his face a smile then creeps
He finds himself beside a stream
Where flowers bloom and sparrows cheep
Caressed by warm comforting beams
He feels serene in slumber deep
Then all at once wakes with a scream
As bombs explode and children weep
Aborted peace ... a shattered dream.

The land skims along the edge of the ridge
And the trees themselves look quite creepy
Limbs sprout outwards making like a bridge
The land skims along the edge of the ridge
There’s a scarecrow that sure holds a grudge
Powers of the scarecrow makes one drowsy
The land skims along the edge of the ridge
And the trees themselves look quite creepy

Sue's polka dots dress is so spotty
So tiny, it just skims her botty
Long legs, what a pair
Made all the men stare
They ogle and call her a hotty
Her outfit one day got soaked wet
It shriveled Sue was quite upset
Now exposing her tush
All the blokes turned to mush
Her peepshow pleased them you can bet!

Late night
This old moon
Shines bright
In dark noon
Here I
Dream of ease
Gaze high
To feel peace
Cold breeze
Skims my face
Moist squeeze
In brief trace
Odd thoughts
Come to mind
Odd lots
In new finds
Night stars
Twinkle bright
On par
Stretch mood right
Old moon
Hints of feel
Night boon
Watch time heal
