No Paper Trail

My memories scream back
echoing down through
small solemn streams of desire
leaving whispers of love and 
tears.

Blood Trail

Innocence a foreigner
if beautiful or dark
No one who can lead the way
— has purity of heart

I have grown old and slow and soft,
and my herd has all run oft,
but I still have my trusty friend the snail...
on the Colorado Trail.

Premium Member Leave a Trail

As I explore,
Life is my compass.

Soon the wake of words will calm
And what I write
Will be the map I've left behind.

A journey someone else will find.

Valentine's day comes

Each year without fail

Much love brings with it

Let's follow Cupid's trail!

Seems the words have stopped flowing of late,
but the hill road is turning out great.
We got to the bottom
with time to see autumn,
and the views of the trees are first rate!

Premium Member Would You Share What Your Trail Means

Leaf vein if you could speak
Would you share what your trail means?
Would you explain yourself in scientific terms?
Or would you just smile 
Keeping your veins
Mysteriously silent?

Premium Member Trail of Diamonds

My eyes close to dream
the unknown abyss surrounds
to where I don't know
on opening, I'm alive
I see trails of diamonds

Premium Member West Coast Trail First Night

Quiet, but for the steady
murmur of waves along
an obsidian beach.
Remnants of an ocean storm,
somewhere between
here and Japan.
Sometime between
Passé Imparfait et
Plus-que-parfait.

Their Trail of Tears

Their Trail of Tears

Were here in America before us for years;
All the Indians with their hopes and fears;
Were worried;
Had hurried;
While they went down the Trails of Tears.

Andy the explorer seeks unmark trail
He takes QQ on a long march never fail
Roadrunner rather run than fly
Catch a bird let’s make a pigeon pie
Both can’t wait to hurry home for a champagne cocktail

Premium Member A Trail 7x7

The  Leprechaun from Ireland
Dressed from head to toe in green;
The children dream of his gold
Hiding beyond the rainbow; 
They play outside searching hard;
He left a trail of green beans,
does it lead to his riches?

Oregon Trail

In-pine-sweet air
In humus soil
Is where I rest, away from care,
And trail weary toil.

One morning feathers filled the air,
With wooden shafts that sped
And left this traveler to lie
With poisoned arrowhead.

draped close for the night
film scenes of you have no end -
mourning sobbing starts

Premium Member The Trail Ends Sign

This trail ends for timid souls,
we who fear where no one goes, 
and ponder what might lay beyond
and what a sign like this portends,
yet, those before blazed through to here
or we'd not be...where this trail ends...

Premium Member Appalachian Trail

long after midnight

he points out the big dipper...

grass for our pillows
