First Class Love

...As I awoke, eyes still laden,
dreaming of a pretty maiden.
Laying quietly, still in my bed.
It was real not just in my head.

As the light streaked through the window,

Down the rabbit hole

...In Wonderland's twilight, where shadows play,
Alice chased a rabbit, down a curious way.
The hole yawned wide, a vortex in the ground,
She tumbled in, and her world spun around.

Down, down she ...

Monarchs

...Monarchs, monarchs
in the milkweed,
flitting around
along with bees.

Drinking nectar,
drifting along,
until cold months,
then they’ll be gone.

Brilliant orange,
streaked through with bla...

Labels and Light

...They seek a label, something to define,
Then twists the truth and paints it all in shame.
It drags the soul beneath its harsh, cold flame,
And whispers lies to mar a spotless shine.

No kindness...

Marlaina’s Midnight Tears

...In the hush of night, when the world feels still,
Marlaina weeps behind the window sill.
The stars don’t blink, the moon won’t speak,
Her heart breaks soft, yet painfully deep.

She holds her ch...

point of potentiality

...in tranquil repose, we so chose
to discard conditioned belief 
whence like the phoenix, bliss mists rose
granting soul much needed relief

formless presence poised in the void

Along With The Thunder

...A bizarre light show streaked across the sky.
The blinding lightning seemed to explode and electrify.
                         a

Galaxies

...Looking into your eyes
I saw stardust forming into galaxies
 	and I wondered if The Grand Architect
felt the same wonder when it looked at its Creation

How the starlight danced off the planet’s...

Tangerine Sky

...Lost and floundering in an unwholesome fog, 
time stood still as if in a freeze-framed mental log; 
roiling clouds swirled and hovered beneath the sun, 
tangerine streaks sketched on the horizon. ...

A Love Hung Quiet

...The hill was bare, the sky undone,
The veil was torn without a sound.
Red streaked the wood, the earth stood still,

happily discontent

...when the sky breathes poetry
through sepia-streaked silence,
and the earth reclines, listening
to the music of weeping wisterias~
blowing in the pulse of bleeding paradise,

Through this web

...Will you then twist my vision into a perfect blur? 
A landscape warped, a world I half perceive, 
Like gazing through a rain-streaked silk-screen, 
Cut the edges sharp to watch my colors bleed

Peregrine Falcons at Malham Cove
