Summertime nature gracefully flourish
Animals arrange marriages; nourish,
Arranged at fun Disneyland
By preacher Giraffe Parkland
Merge, self-discovery over-flourish.

sides of the shadow between petal and nose
where warmth, a carrier, gave light as she
the blossoming cornucopia full and vivid
yet who shall I say sends their love
and surrounds with distances purely travelled
bathe, we, both in simple waters
and be no bridge where underneathers dwell
our hands, our hearts, now satisfied
no longer demanding, we live in each other

Water, fall upon my heart
Let His love from above impart
Fill my rivers, fill my veins
Slake my thirst like first fall rains
Water, fall upon my soul
Make me green and clean and whole
Wash away my doubts and sins
And make me sure and pure again
Water, fall upon my life
Drown my pain and strain and strife
Make beauty blossom everywhere
And flood my mind with kindest prayers.

Myrtles in the mist
Sunlight streaming in
An ethereal presence
A rainbow of tapestry
Little light purple star flowers
In the ink green darkness
At the heels of the eucalyptus woods
A lavender lullaby, wordless
Bluebonnet faces shady with sleep
A hum of a psalm that is all life throbbing
Earth in constant motion
An ocean cradle rocking for centuries
Apocalypse forever renewed
When dew becomes jewel
And frost sews its lace
A crochet of vines
Embroidery of mosses and flora
Scent and sound
Fragrant rustling of the eucalyptus
On the salt-sea breeze
Swept off from the dunes
The last twinkle in the dusk
Quiet flower heads lie in wait
Of some ancient memory
That may never exist
For some long-forgotten harmony
And heartbreak
Washed in on some far-off shore
When the mist of the morning
And the mist of the dusk
Are indistinguishable
When both command and instill
A hush and halt
A mind-clouding gas
Mesmerize and harmonize
Some mists are eternal
Some a passing glance
Emotions and myrtles go hand in hand
The mists are the spirits of the earth
Myrtles are a lullaby
The evening prayer that glows within.

We ease into it—
the larger life surrounding
our self-direction.
From birds and crickets
and more we are distracted
by things that steal time.
Again we find home
in this pulsating life flow
within and without.

rainy day sunshine
pretty almond tree spirit
dancing with our ancestors
frolicking even
with whispery giggling
they are lightening us up
