wintery fire
flowing through my icy veins
scorching all remains

scarlet tears falling
onto the cold white stained snow
burning as they grow

a sea of nothingness
thrashes against my broken heart
i never thought we'd part...

The bobber dips,
The fishing pole whips,
The fish jerks,
The man works,
The thin line,
Carefully this time.

The fish splashes,
The man thrashes,
The fish flies,
The man sighs,
The line breaks,
And an exit the fish makes....

His heart was warm like the bright sky,

but was this all a lie?

His mind was a thunderstorm,

Deep thrashes of lighting,

Setting fire to the wind.

He smiled with such joy in his eyes,

But yet on the inside,

He slowly wanted to die....

At the end of this 
Fishing line,
We captured
A metallic blue
Sailfish, with
Blazing red eyes
He thrashes
Fin and tail
Against the
Pull of these
Ocean hands
In the vastness of
These raging waters,
He refuses
To become bounty,
Aboard this
Sacred vessel...

storm chaser

cotton clouds billow
 feisty winds in frisky moods ~
  thunder approaches

lightning bolts run wild
  leaves flash in silver storm hues ~
   driving rain thrashes

sunbeams chase the storm
 summer stretches 'cross calm skies ~
  storm makes quick get away

Trickle trickle ting
I am tapping the shy window pane
Whispering water whisper rain
Listen as they sing my  name
Thunderous voices of Angels

Waters deep in my  tenacious 
Destiny lay in wait my threshold
Thrashes crashing feet below rushing
river,  aah, a waterfall I FLOW
Unabated, waterfall I AM......FREE...

The house struggles
to keep its roof above water
The Gasconade river
smashes it into oaks
that slash the walls
slice the roof

The house thrashes
rips a telephone pole
out by its root
crashes
boards swirl 
splinters in brown sludge

The round eye
of the satellite dish
does not blink
before drowning

 feisty winds in frisky moods ~
  thunder creeps closer

lightning bursts run wild
 driving rain thrashes tree tops ~
  leaves flash silver hues

harlequin sunbeams
 spring stretches across calm skies ~
  storm makes get away

storm clouds roll in 
doesn't matter that it's 80 degrees
 the  lightening thrashes in deep purple sky
thunder sounds like a pack of peterbuilts 
the wind whips in all directions as
rain begins to fall
 cooling down to 68
 it fills empty spots in ground
giving life back
all night rain pours
filling gauge
morning comes and all is done
blue skies filled with white clouds
as if nothing ever happened...

the night is young
full of unwanted sorrow

dark storm clouds roll in 
taking away clear view

no birds can sing sweet melodies

nor animal burro in the tree-tops

thunder casts out a dreadful cry
and lightening strikes it's evil wand
 across the darkened world

the rain thrashes it's anger
not once or twice, but
through out the night til morn.

when all sorrow lifts it's head
and the sun beams with delight...

It crawls upon cold paws
To clutch with talons and claws
Nearing its prey, it hunts
With opening eyes and jaws
 
To shove with power and thrust
Upon insatiable desire and lust
It thrashes again and throws
Ardor so unjust

It bursts in colors of mist
In crimson hue and amethyst
Its forces like fireworks rise
Within emotion, organs, and amidst

In body it lies, in surreal disguise
Leaving no chance for mind to coexist...

My husband snores
Everyone closes their doors

He thrashes about
Like he is trying to get out

Where he is going
I do not know

You hear him all night long
Talking, yelling, singing a song

I tell him...please do something you silly old man
What can I tell you, that is all I can

He wakes up in the morning all rested and well
Why the rest of us want to stand up and yell....

Good Lord man...go to the doctor, you are not well!

I look over the side of the boat
The ocean
Engulfing everything in it's way

Taking life from anything
Present
And never looking back

Blacker then night
Evil
Mysterious killer

My hair whipping my face
Wind
The oceans' ally 

Pushing full force
Toward
The living's death

It thrashes like wild
Tigers
Waiting for meat

And then the sun breaks the
Horizon
Brightening the world

And silencing the black killer
Until
Darkness swallows the world again......

Grayed swell
Foamed chop thrashes the rocks
The wind scatters the seabirds above
Their aerial skills flustered with rush
Gloomy skies deter natures light 
Each cloud acting as a closing door
 
As i sit and look out
Beside me, raven of doom
As it hangs its head
Knowing my loved one has been consumed
In my heart i pray 
A cloud relaxes and a ray of hope shines through
 
Until then i sit
Sodden with grief
My upbringing
My belief
