Language bridges nature's self-consciousness,
covering, 
discovering, 
recovering, 
uncovering
sacred Time's regenerous echoing Pilgrimage....

Lugubrious veil
Covers your lachrymose soul
With melancholy
Uncovering treacherous
Grooves in the path you walked

Unbearably I gaze
through the endless smog,
and attempt
to blow clouds
away.

Though 
a pollution I have let it
become,
It seeps
             inside.

Around, it is dark
because inside
so am I....

Light fingers
touching blossoms
to the vine;

I've seen these
at sunrise;
when I took time
to pause... 

become silent

uncovering from a season's dark
I aired, opened
to new brightness.......

Ever watch Exhibition Unknown with Josh Gates
Uncovering ancient cities with treasures that await
His sense of humor
Makes him shrewder
Than many, he's a natural as our souls he elevates...

Alas,

Brisk Candles Dine,

Endlessly Fleeting Graceful Horizons

In Just, knowing Lies May Never Own

Promptly Quilting, Reasons Stiffening

Tomorrow Uncovering Voracious Winds

Xenial Yielding Zenith....

Chasing
certain moments
through my mind

  Seeking
unique love
a special kind

  Uncovering
past thoughts
hurtful feelings
not intending to find

  Hiding
broken images
captured your soul
made me blind...

pine cones drop like tears
from a weeping willow's bough
autumn's gentle grief

burnt orange cake spread
on the bottom of our shoes
amber hues take hold

gales of wind gust strong
over beds of crimson rust
uncovering seeds...

A thick, misty haze
Cluttered that meadow 
Of dreams
Where rivers of love
And trees of life
Flourished like untamed weeds
But your strong wind
Rushed the clouds away
Uncovering a clear reality
My life lies ahead of me
And I choose you...

She’s wise


                then cries


His lies 


           Despise


Ted deceives her… she’s wise, then cries out
uncovering his lies … despise, shout!

A sweet ray of sun on an autumn breeze
Nestled amongst arms in nature's way
Dreaming dreams and living scenes 
Right in front of our very eyes
Etching out lasting memories
And uncovering endless possibilities

Happy birthday Andrea!!
You are truly a gift to us....

  Intense, the sun’s rays
    light-headed, dizzy, her reaction
  A chill wind from nowhere
    stabs her, springing into action
  
  Is this the end, she wonders 
    gathering herself
  Throws herself shamelessly at the world
    uncovering ~ a sacred elf

One, two
Spirits
Entwined
Side by side
Alone
Yet together
Not identical
Fraternal
Reflections
Images floating
Starry skies
Pond leaves
Debris
Covers
Bright colors
Masking Intentions
Rain falling
Uncovering
Veins of love
Stem to tip
Floating
Stopping
Pond's edge
Embracing...

Sand beneath
Worn feet
Damp coolness
Water treated
Moved waves away
Puttering the open shore
Enjoyment
For one and all
Making inroads
Life fine
Getting over tensions
Building on new dimensions
Old measures not forgot
Uncovering well tone mored
Deal with and go on home
Speaking happy mime...

Exhausted entities
To breath in the exhaust
Fumes will be your fuel
Who's the fool now?
Drowning in a pool of your own spit
To find the perfect fit
Falling into a pit of ash
Uncovering your secret stash of secrets...
The truth will spill out
Get your fill of lies
Because every human's a spie of the FBI...

I oft find myself reliving my youth
    uncovering uncomfortable truths
  about all of my foibles and most of my sins
    O, Lord! What condition my poor soul is in... 

  Whether daydreams or nightmares 
    each one gives me a scare
  I'd played life so close to the vest 
    ~ What might have been if I'd headed west...

Sitting before the mountain bare
A single thread, the clear stream runs cold
Until the mists had cleared the air
And the grey peaks their heads unfold
White clean snow floating like a dream
Uncovering and flowing like cream.

The vibes we ride
the highs, the lows
conversations with
conclusive innuendos
Hypotheticals and 
experiments
we engage in
acrobatics of
noun and verb duels
Your en garde
I fall hard
Butter knife
tongues
Eucharistic bread
the uncovering
of your body
unravels my
mentality
Intoxicatingly
sipping your
Lord have mercies
Amen and Amen...

Uncharted

You trickled your way into the fold of my heart 
and every day went deeper since
toeing through uncharted waters
nosing to my core.
You’ve brought light to the darkest part of me
the sun have never seen,
with no more than an unarmed smile
you explore my tempestuous waters
unabashed;
uncovering a little piece of me
each time more....

Blue ink imprints
On lighter blue lines
With the intent
Of telling no lies

Yet still cautious
Of revealing all truth
Things meant to miss
Feelings left to lose

Solely uncovering
A portion of the pain
With a habit of leaving
Fractions to remain

Out of compulsion
To never wholly share
Due to apprehension
Of being fully bare

As the Sun creeps over the mountains
Darkness cowers, making way for the light
Due weeps and turns to fountains, 
Drip drip dripping out of sight
Mother Nature is astounding
How different the Day over the Night
The Dawn over powers the dusk uncovering the night-shy flowers
It is truly sublime...
As the flowers stretch and yawn they face the Sun in pure delight...

Listen to poem:

*Image of Lyre by LUT.

8 Lines Now Okay

Irked shadow's occasions a Sun,
Tolls a knell's lowly peal, begun.

Ill winds bade the palls hovering,
Time betrays caused uncovering.

Inch thoust trek thy countenance hid,
The belching rains down thoust forbid.

In looms thoust melt of Luna's lyre,
Thoust lieth in her soothing fire.

Peeling away the onion
      uncovering another layer 
       Brings a tear to my eye
          can just about bear
          keep stripping back 
           trying not to stare
          I sneak a little peep
         find I’m almost there
         then come the floods
           my soul’s laid bare
             All that remains 
            is pungent despair...

I close my eyes and listen to the river flowing
The water is low and the rocks are showing
Revealing my soul, while uncovering peace
I stand and I listen while I release…
Turbulent feelings that are caught like a stick
In the flowing river, here’s to thoughts I kick…
And with each kick, freedom finds me here
On the shore of the river, that is so near
