Twilight

twilight fondles eyes

lifting her silhouette high

against lucid clouds--

flesh undressed beneath torn trees

drowning in pools of farewell



Tanka Written With  A Decent Pivot

Old Church

I've watched the isles at dusk
Cool and mysterious they lie--
Where old and deep-boughed cedars
heave, as gleaned from a cloudscape 
on earth's threadbare attic,
While lines of faded stars 
slip into gauzy white--
to appear like brushed, eerie ghosts
on howling psalms that sought 
the need to settle in the vault 
of an empty, ruined church.

Sign Language

Fingers curl,
Wrapped around your breast
As that smile enters  my eyes.
I gesture back with awkward hands, yet
There’s no need for you speak---
My heart understands
Unsaid words.

Lost In a Dirt-Path

lost in a dirt-path
amidst the thickets of forest
eyes grasp new silence

Marble Eyes

Somehow among the hidden leaves of time
when quietude swerves on a road
leading me to reach for waning hours,
there is a lush of evening's breath
panting inside those marble eyes

that if I gaze long enough into darkness 
your iced look will blink,
to open windows that are locked
by hinges creating knots enmeshed.

The distant screams paint your irises
jutting out from a frame of hard lids
buried deeply on frigid weeds-- 
and the night loses its elegance

while your crystal tears invade
the shining glow behind the lamp
within your eyes---I learn to understand
how confidential this time is 
when you fade away, knowing not I am there.

A Cricket's Melody

 Leaping into the fog of night
chirps brightly , acapella
to awaken an instant thrill
with moistened wing-pads flicking--
a bug wiggles like a ribbon
caught now in my glassy jar!

Ache of Strings and Bow

A wail escapes from its bow

Each note rising, ebbing

To cut into my pinch of ache;

While strings quiver on flesh, 

A wail escapes from its bow.

- My godfather gave me his violin for my
  music lessons in high school. Since then, 
  I got hooked on this instrument; 
  a valuable possession.
