Star Poems

You are the tea leaves I am the teapot
I the tiny snowflake and you the snow.
You the key, I the gate to Camelot
a Lancelot and Guinevere combo.

I am a fantasy you are a dream
you a blazing sun I a molten...Read More

Razorblade


Shot a rebel through the heart.
Cancer kills but life is art.
You tried to put a stop to all that we are,
But we are too hot to handle; you can’t grab hold of a star.


Fire your guns; I’m invincible.
Speak your words;...Read More

A complex God


I can’t always be your salvation.
One day I will rip you apart.
I won’t always be a helping hand,
Because one day I will reach inside and tear out your heart.


If you allow me to love you, utterly and truly,
Then...Read More

Patent No.1


Give me directions to find my car.
Arrows on the key fob, point near or far.
North by North West; is this the right way?  Yes.
There is my car, under the star.
This invention is the best.
Trackar, twenty yards away, easy...Read More

let me forget you
so that i won't know what i'm missing

i want
more than anything
to separate myself from the world
to need and know only me and my family
and a handful of friends
because i would be lying if i said

The Panther
by Rainer Maria Rilke
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

His weary vision's so overwhelmed by iron bars,
his exhausted eyes see only blank Oblivion.
His world is not our world. It has no stars.
No light. Ten thousand bars. Nothing beyond.
Lithe, swinging with...Read More

"Closer"



Dreamer weaves 
her golden words
like breath brought
her into a new world
each chord held 
she remembers holding 
the constellation
Virgo in her arms 
in time small windows
open midnight blue
glistening jade
they reign over her
a Lion whispering 
the oddest nursery rhymes, 
lullabies she's remembering
over...Read More

My galaxy spirals in incubation of sacred dream 
The 5th element, silent and unseen 
Sparks the immortal flame within my skin
Spiritual mother turns my world 
The life that is both old and new 
Blends in unison and in truth 
The...Read More

Rebirth

Grey ghostly clarions
Swiftly travel
To the east of darkling day
Riding on a dirge wind
Blowing harsh
Over waters that reflect
The fading dawn
When they turn to blood red, 
Glowing crimson,
As they color the vast and swirling grey
Trumpeting to the earth,
With light retreating,
The call of...Read More

(Verse 1)
I just want to be 
Involved in something romantically
With someone who wants to be
In this together with me
Oh I 
Want to be with a guy 
Who understands why 
Why he chose 
To be with me whoa
Promise to give all...Read More

Freedom tastes like fresh air, 
that very first sigh
when the work clock finally strikes five;

Freedom smells like new money,
when you can leave the house 
spend it, come back and throw a  party; 

Freedom looks like an open road, 
as...Read More

there are butterflies under the sea
and fish in the air today
willows wept over the moon
and stars giving
distance away
nothing is 
as it seems 
come here
let’s discuss 
it in bed 
where words 
lose their shapes
with their spurs
and fingers with lips
run in herds
let...Read More

Renewable Radiance

Streams of clearest light,
Born of a star,
Splash across flaxen maize,
Beckoning tall sunflowers to follow
With their skyward gaze
Dashing through newborn dewdrops
Creating playful shadows
The bouncing, 
  dappling, 
    flashing, 
     flowing
Golden glow of...Read More

‘You are the tea leaves I am the tea pot I the tiny snowflake and you the snow’ _Maria Williams

without him by her side

What are the soul suckers
 that forcibly cleave to you?
What do they mean to you?
Why do you let them steal from you?
How many more times 
will they make a meal of you?

Is it television,
or Harlequin Romance books?
Perhaps it’s gambling on...Read More

   

It is time for an evening walk
As the sun melts within a blaze
The daylight hustle, now wanes
And slips into a darkened haze

The lonely star rises, from afar
Casting a faint light through the...Read More

I got you the moon
Next I’ll get you 
Every star above

Whatever you need
Whatever you want
To make you well again

I believe in the magic
Of nighttime glitter
I know there’s a cure
In the sprinkles of moondust

The stars above hold powers
Sacred of white magic
Revealing...Read More

Time is the recorder, measuring events that expire
And not the Judge, deciding when events transpire
it silently and anonymously prints beginnings to endings
The world juried our Love affair
Earth’s, Mountains and Rivers observes Us moving as fast as a locomotive
Its verdict mellow,...Read More

Remember when time was new?
An early day, a long night too!

Remember when you once knew a child who put up a fight with you?
A child who saw the fading light in you. A star so bright you both once knew....Read More

Space Spiel

Rambling of a paired star, pardoned,
amidst a group of twinklers gaze,
glistening the margin of space,
be a part of Heaven's garden.

A certain circumstance arose,
wherein, the errant star took pace,
foreboding star came into view,
attempt position to impose.

The stars all seem to...Read More

Beautiful picturesque soft glowing light 
against the darkness, whilst burning shooting
star catapult through the sky in its flight. 
Spinning fine idyllic thread flow, moving.

In mine heart, I evoke the narrative 
wist of our youth. An inexhaustible 
love; now lost in...Read More

I saw a star after some years away from home
           She hung above my clouds sending me rays that led me to her
And this star was you
