If I could tell you about
The soul whispers which gather between us,
All that of life would cripple -
Watchful of the graceful god that births.

The Eggs

The eggs were colorful and bright
They hide them way out of sight
There was a watchful eye
Who tried to act shy
Took the eggs and ate with delight

Reaches for new heights above
Watchful eyes of youth

On a Steep Hill

Freezing days on a steep hill
below a flock of sheep grazing,
under a watchful dog standing still.
And I, with binoculars appraising
Winter's life is amazing!

Let us be thoughtful
Alert and watchful
Of what is said
And left unsaid
Each silent tremor
Involuntary shiver
Embraced with love
That does us behove

Uninterruptedly forged

Premium Member Lake Morning

Powdered gray, the moss,
intricate lace, decorates
giant cypress on the shore
gnarled knees offer post
where watchful birds keep vigil-
holy lake sanctuary.

she walks barefoot
waves rise and recede
endless succession of tides
silver of stippled crests
watchful eyes of moon
crests stippled of silver
tides of succession endless
recede and rise waves
barefoot walks she
