I Don't See What You See

Sparrows enjoy a certain reputation
For intimacy and hope

Crosby Stills and Nash sang of them
In Suite: Judy Blue Eyes
As compatriots to the morning
Air
With guitar strums and high notes

Truth be told
Sparrows are bulkier than the normal song bird
And not particularly
Pretty
Brown and gray as a mound of dirt

Chirpy jerky punk band

And they have no problem with crowding out

CANDY APPLE RED FOREVER FOX STAMP STILLS-

Ole’ to the bland bated solid baby blue-hued sky viewed
Left handed white arrows stacked pyramid left side two points up north? looks cool,
Forever almonds eyes slanted aligned  with cheek triangular faced,
Vivid stares in graced sitting tail staged right tipped black on end looks cool man
Sitting in on rippled lined white background represents layers of

Stills the Waters

He who calmed the stormy sea
who stills the waters
who shows mercy and kindness
a passionate man
who blessed humanity
bringing justice for all

He is all powerful
He is our Lord and Savior
who leads us daily
forgiving our sins
He who calms the stormy sea
who stills the waters

Stills Statuesque

the contemplative
is not
       explained

silent 
ethereal
     evocative
a

       in time
                        displayed
arrayed
in
pensive pictures

the natural
everyday

Sunset Stills

above the still strand
shrieks of seagulls
die on the inshore breeze-
our twin footsteps disappear
as sunset dissolves

Seven Silent Stills

Sorrows secret of blackness
Hearts broken amidst shadows
Tears cascading crying now
All silence that disrespects
All anguish that hides within
Darkness displays deadly sin
Consuming false Nirvana.


...this verse can be read backward...


Blackness of secret sorrows
Shadows amidst broken hearts
Now crying cascading tears
Disrespects that silence all
Within hides, that anguish all
Sin, deadly displays darkness
Nirvana, false consuming.

Forest Never Stills

forest never stills
created from organics
a constant movement

flitters and flutters
whether by wind or water
forest never sleeps

In Stills

I ask myself have I come to a stand still
Is this a halt?, or is this only a full stop
Because if I were to get back up that hill
I think I'd need a catapult to reach the top

Perhaps the fact I have now lost the will
Maybe a lighting bolt though I think I'd drop
And yet
