A wisp of wind tousled curls
Cloaks the eyes of Madonna
Watch as her beauty unfurls

winding fissure
on a cotton mountain ridge
as dark as midnight
wisp of your glorious mane
abandoned on my pillow

lighter than a wisp
afloat on a midnight breeze
delicate whisper

Neck and neck in the night sky,
Dancing lights face each other;
But, what are they; UFO’s
Or Willow-the-wisp?

baby star heralds
hail dawning gild glimmering
aloof flora wakes
leaves billow parting top wisp
breath orangey-red's farewell

A giant feather in a perfect blue sky.
A wisp of cloud shaped and tapered,
what a exquisite surprise. What an
amazing heavenly message up high.

lurch out of a haze
shaking withered wisp of mind~

richly colored kiss...
hair-wisp falling on your face
in twilight half-light
the moment I first knew you
the moment you first knew me

Laughter with old pals,
like an immaculate song
can't be out of tune
It is life dancing
in lightheaded wisp of time-
a glass always full

Last Night
Sleep,
Oh elusive wisp of rest.
You run and hide your arms from me.
I chase, then fall and lie awake
'Til finally I rise
To face a tired day.

wisp light ripples through
spring honey on alder field
down forest earth trail
cool rhythmic river flows, veers
stretch tight amid space and time

Music to your eyes
Candy to your ears
Harken at your sighs
Hasten at your fears
Wish upon the stars
Wipe away the years
Wilt away the scars
Wisp away the tears

Ballad
A strand of love lays wilted on my sill.
It was once two and now only one.
I bend it so it’s a couple, but it cracks.
Just a wisp of love that’s vanished in the wind.

I felt the Sun breathe it's life
as you became
revealed inside a dream of golden fire
touching in a rainbow hue of colors
resting on a dying mist
living but
a moment's wisp.

wistfully
wafting westward--
Wisp

welcome
white warblers--
weeds wakening

She came gliding in on her dragonfly steed.
Lovely and lithe, delightful indeed.
A wisp of a thing, a tiny little light might.
A pixie, a faerie, a pretty sight on this night.

We are a faint star cluster
A mere wisp of evening cloud
A glimpse into ancient history
Our distance cannot be fathomed
By your feeble, mortal minds
We may be stardust by now

Night breathes with sound almost unheard:
dog echoing distant dog;
the wisp of wind through nextdoor chimes;
the steady beating of your heart,
like soft rain, water to my dreams.

Staring at the blue
imperfections in my eyes
like static pops
swirls and tweeks
wisp creatures contour my eyeballs
like another universe unveiled
between the what is and what ifs

Gods’ Messengers; light beings are always around when needed.
Feather-light wisp of winged energy; a miracle prayed for;
These beacons never leave us; always stay right by our sides.

That wisp of a girl
claims she’s your daughter
How can she be
if you ain’t taught her
Right from wrong when it comes to men
~ tell her the tale of her mother then

Couplet
when winds wisp dust into your face
do you close your eyes to embrace
what was once and yet to be
particles of the very first humanity
weave and woven into the cusp
we are dust and dust is us

every dawn
every ray of sun
I will miss you
every raindrop
every wisp of wind
I will feel you
every night
every twinkling star
I will remember you
