Timeless Interlude
A hole in my heart
The beach that’s empty at night
Timeless interlude
Purpose of an empty heart
I fold my arms in disgust

Until We Meet Again
Treasure your moments with zest and zeal,
and show honest love with every word;
life is fleeting - no bargain or deal...
'cause the last "goodbye" is always heard.

Prunellas Majestic Myrtles
Prunella loved the color purple,
planting some lovely Crepe Myrtle’s;
they had a humongous growth spurt,
all due to her nitro-rich dirt,
now her yard’s a Myrtle hurdle.

The Ocean of the Now
I ride the waves of innocence
on the ocean of The Now.
From the depths of dank
a demon stalks my bow.

Human Nature
A good human
But a flawed lover
A good soul
But still a tormentor
A good mask
But also a mind gamer
This is human nature
Contradictory and contagious
Yet full of life

Spring Impressionistic Gardens
Spring’s imagination
Inevitably creates

Daffodils
fields of bold daffodil bells
ring in the Chinese New Year
wealth and prosperity spread
from wild, yellow blooms
bright bells of distinction sway
a sweet fragrance on the breeze
tell of flowers bringing gold
a gift to behold

The Puddle
I gaze into a large puddle,
Can see the three worlds.
One beneath containing life,
Swimming freely chasing foe.
The second on the surface,
Floating leaves motionless.
The third and most miraculous,
The reflection…
Which is me.

Seven Merging Vows
Drifting across seven seas
nascent hopes majestic lives,
Undulating turquoise waves
spill lilac pearls of twilight;
Seven vows retreat to shore
dissolve in our tides of love,
like wet paper boats we merge.

Autumn's Gift
On wet days, shivering,
we greet late fall,
whose shortening days
bring with icy fingers
hoar frost on the fields at dawn.
Some time before the first light snow,
we take pause, and with loved ones recall -
Autumn’s gift is an abundant harvest.

Not Alone
If I take a walk
on the beach alone
bathed in the sun's light
with no hand in mine,
I Know I'll be fine
Gulls will still plunge
into the waves
touched by the wind
while I seek Him
With each step
I will find
He is here
Always
near, my
God

Evenfall
Lilac dreams
tiptoe inside
whisper
my secrets as
evenfall descends..
Aged stories
turn mauve
haunt me then
dissolve
in tides of
crimson seas..
Memories expand
become more mine than I
am
as evenfall ends.

Gossip
Oh gossip where is your sting,
you are here today and hurting others for days to come.
Oh gossip how shy you are,
pretending to say nothing to anyone.
Oh gossip to say and to hear can't you just go away,
go away and don't hurt others anymore any day.

Mother Nature Revealed
Mother's love
One day at a time
Trees full of blossoms
Hear the birds singing
Earth awakening
Rest time is almost over
Now love all
Air renewed
Time is passing
Use what you have
Rejoice you made it
Everlasting changes

Star
She longed to wow 'em on the stage,
but cannot sing in key/in tune;
attempts to hit the highest notes,
like werewolves howling at the moon.
She tried to play the violin...
the keyboard...drums...for many years.
Instead of clapping, people frown
and put their fingers in their ears.
But now she's sure to be a star -
just watch her play the air guitar!

Still Waiting
STILL WAITING
Until his assassination in 1968, Martin Luther King campaigned tirelessly for equality and human rights for African Americans. Fifty-seven years on from his historic “I have a dream” speech, for many the lessons still have to be learned.
This man of vision
Dreamed the impossible dream.
Still far, far to go

I Like Silence
I like silence
when it drizzles like rain
not thundering down,
but falling softly on my window pane.
I like silence
when it ripples like barley in the breeze.
It is in times like these
it puts me at such ease.
I like silence
when it drifts to me like snow.
Then is when I get lost
in its tranquil flow.

Losing Her Glow
Drained fingers jot sweet memory
calling Pam’s name in every bloom,
as laced nights recall the glory
of fondness born from love’s heirloom...
Time pauses… her Glow swirls on trees
where romps christen fire tasting life..
And though wonder darts to appease
pale the ticks, yearning for dear wife.
