White Lily Against Black Background

Piano music plays.
Soft notes emote mid air,
like tear-stung doves they fly 
in atmosphere of fog.
The clouds, they shroud the sky. 

Piano music plays, 
the keys, they seize my blues—
the depth of blue, so vast.
Poetic ivories 
harassed… recite the past. 

Piano music plays.
Dull echoes haunt the halls, 
sonatas without soul.
Since wick and flame lost light
my space

Flower

You call me a flower
But what kind?

Is it a yellow tulip? A cluster of warm sunshine and happiness? 

Or maybe a Lily of the Valley? The tears I’ve shed for you made into delicate little milky white blossoms
Each petal carefully watered by the streams of water that run down my cheeks

Or am I an Aster?

Spring

Life’s cyclic existence from death to rebirth
best understood this season of burgeoning.
Flora, as Phoenix, rises from the sodden earth

Bold lilies and crocus burst in brilliance,
anticipating full Spring’s warming sunlight,
with yellow, white,

An agonizing pain, helpless soul, a daydreamer forever!
Let us talk... let us walk together with the common goal of peace 
Although freedom of oppressed land is a myth of forgotten bliss.
Should I tell you about those toiling hands of a craftsman, a magical

A Single White Lily

We were apart..
You had taken your own journey
I had taken mine..

We remain apart..
Moments..
Hours..
Days .
Weeks..
Months..
Years
Upon every waking hour..
I reminese and ponder..
When our beating hearts were one..

A Single White Lily
Held in my hand
There it stood..
A representation of our deep love

A beautiful lily..
Signified our connection 
Had yearned for your warm embrace..
Many restless nights..
I imagine your soft caresses..
Your sweet

"WHITE LILY"


When the first 
snow-white lily 
sprouted from drops of milk
spilled from Hera’s breast
and on her lap sweet Hurcules 
rested, baby feather fingers touching
she smiled a surrogate mother’s
fantasy, to make time stop still
reached her hands to 
touch the Heavens
creating something of her own
this not from her body torn
her very own Celestial Galaxy
the Milky Way was

White Lily

"What kind of flower
Pulls us into the future
And offers us hope?"
She turned away, hid her face,
And softly spoke, "White Lily."
