Visitations 

rising with a vision from spent dreams .....
where loved ones who lived have purposes to do:
make visitations, filled with timeless memories,
revealing truths that waken thought at dawn
and from their holy touch upon the breast,
one joys at drops of heaven's blessedness.

Visitations

A cold wind picks
the last leaves off the maple.
Last night a full moon
rose up through its branches
and shone brightly into
my room, casting its eerie light
onto a crowd of ghosts
who kept me from my sleep.
Even behind closed eyes 
I could see their faces, 
silvered in moonlight.

This morning they are gone,
back into the holes of my head,
asleep

Visitations

I await sweet Annabelle
as I rest in this lonely bower.
I yearn to hear her angel voice
and feel her healing power.
Others come and others go
in times I'm given to folly,
like buxom Jenny Ramsbottom
and then there's fulsome Molly.
Sometime I forget their names,
it's so hard to keep a tally.
Some bore with their chitter-chat,
especially one named Sally.
I sometime wish

Astral Visitations

Often, after a day of walking
in and out of my mind,
I will put on a nightcap,
it's not a substantial cap like a bobble hat
it's more a cowl, a hood, a cloud-basket.

Beneath this dark covering
thoughts lay down to rest
in early graves.

Beyond a high hedge of time
astral lights flicker.
An inner sky gleams a starry gloaming,
I grope for

Visitations

Yellows upped,
humble shanty forms beyond verdant meadows.

Animals resounding,
quivering grounds,
championed zephyrs penetrate leveled jealousies.

I knocked,
the whitish doorway opened,
neighborly xenial exchanges.

Visitations

Mom and Dad are clear tonight
though both prematurely dead.
They don't know me as I am now,
their image of me has rigor mortis.

Mom worries about my drinking,
dad is pissed over the fact 
that I hate my job,
and want to go to Paris to write
leaving my young wife stranded
in perpetual poverty.

I wish they would both grow up,
but

Visitations

 Spirits revisit
From time to time and touch us
You’ll know when you feel
Electric tickles on skin
Static electricity.

Hospital Visitations

Some social obligations must be observed, I suppose,
But some leave me unnerved and somewhat morose.
One such tribal ritual is the dreaded hospital visitation,
A social call that I approach with very little anticipation!

Usually its some guy who's a friend of a friend of my spouse,
So I grudgingly traipse along to please the lady of my house.
