Distant Shore[*Hendecasyllable: line of verse containing 11 syllables with stanzas with repeated end words and a five line envoi that concludes the ballade.]*
Look as… “a crimson sky breaks the distant shore”
Signaling I will see my fair home no more
the ship drifts into shadows far from yon shore
And soon the sky is dark night, crimson no more
The...

A Crimson Sky
Oh how I wish I could buy,
the huge beautiful sky.
By day with bright white and blue so high,
and the sunny sun makes me want to cry.
By night the colors change making a roar,
"A crimson sky breaks the distant shore."...

divine destructionThe lightning blinks through diaphanous air,
An enigmatic catharsis of the universe.
The thunderous exhale fleeting--
Ultraviolet tendrils grasping from the atmosphere.
A bolt illuminating the heavens with majestic bearing,
Smothering the canvas littered with stars in a flash,
Curling with a conniving kind of captivation--
A calamitous craft cracking through the cosmos....

To FlyIt would be a pure adrenaline freedom thrill to fly.
Flight motion is a dreamy adventure I would savor.
How excited I would be to Peter Pan the sky.
I feel certain the atmosphere would gladly comply.
Granting me ascent would be a most splendid favor.
It would be a pure adrenaline freedom thrill to fly.
Passing birds would wonder...

Blue skies and sunshine
BLUE SKIES AND SUNSHINE
We all need a little sunshine,
To brighten up our day,
Beautiful, bright blue skies,
"A joy to see!! " we say.
Wonderful sunshine,
Such a joy it brings,
Golden orange and yellow colours,
It makes your heart sing.
Looking up above,
See the white, soft clouds so high,
So calm and peaceful,
Watching...

To FlyTo be like a bird and fly and fly
To touch the edge of the azure sky
to fly together, to swoop and soar
To visit the clouds forever more.
To dance with the wind, a pirouette
bask midst a gold and crimson sunset
Fly over mountains crested with snow
Finding wonder-filled places to go
Fly over meadows blazing with bloom
To ruffle wildflowers'...

Crimson Sky
“A crimson sky breaks the distant shore”-
a perfect picture view that seems unreal;
the red and golden highlights underscore
God's beautiful and mystical reveal.
The water's edge reflects this lovely scene-
a double gift that soothes my tired soul
with rhythm in the ripples- and between,
the shimmering whitecaps complete His goal.
Such peaceful moments are the awesome prize
to grant me pleasure...

The SkyI fall in love with the sky time after time again.
Perhaps that is how I learned to love so hard,
To love so much,
And never expect anything in return.
I fell in love first with something ever changing;
Nothing can disappoint me after that....

Along my road to Freedom stood
showy blue-green sentinels with
white cloud whiffs representing Sky
starling decorated bushes joined
Party of the Road to nowhere
this was where Freedom
danced naked, her shadowed body
awaiting with roasted chestnuts
she met us with a hug and drums
on I moved to dissolve into River
braincells becoming numinous atomic...

In the garden where illusions grow like paper flowers under the velvet skyIn the garden where illusions grow like paper flowers under the velvet sky,
Life is woven like a tapestry of shadows and lights fading into the distance,
A sweet lie we embrace with open arms,
For the pure truth, like a cold wind, might scatter our dreams,
We paint our reality with the oils of dreams and unfulfilled hopes,
While...

If you let me, the clouds will open like coconuts under the weight of the skyIf you let me, the clouds will open like coconuts under the weight of the sky,
acidic milk will cascade over your cities, drowning them in twilight,
thin lightning like my fingers will write unknown messages in the sky,
I will scour the turbulent air to reach you, traveling through time like a dream,
I will step on the...

Sky without The BordersFrom the high deck, gazing far away
The southern sky, the clouds arrayed
Passing overhead in summertime
Stirring up dreams with open eyes
A warm wind sweeps across my face
The wild doves have left their place
Carrying with them joyful songs
Seagulls enjoy the sky all day long
The sparrows forget the green...
