If I walked
through burning sand
and rocky stone
barefoot and alone -
If I walked
through icy tundra
and winter storm
naked as my birth -
If I walked
through my pain
and did . . . more

Time changes everything
I sat on this rock for fifty years and watched the world around me change.
I watched the laid back ways of life switch off for the oh-so-common hustle bustle of life today.
I watched . . . more

Your world caves in
Around you
Within you
The pain too palpable
To face
To fight
Embracing the dark
Surrendering
Relenting
Blind to those
Who love
Who care
And bring you light
To give . . . more

I'm just happy again with my self
I just need to be careful
To not say too much
About my future plans
Because I don't want another war today
So, I'm living in silence
But it's OK . . . more

You dont have to ask god, he knows your heart.
When your life is torn and every road seems dark.
You dont have to ask god, to take away your fears.
He will sheild you from harm, he will dry your tears. . . . more

“Two Old Men”
Two old men chuckled
As they readied their sleds
For a speedy downhill venture
Bodies flat. . . face down
Off they flew
Like two boys
Sleighing . . . more

Restless, pacing, measuring out
concrete boundaries
that strain the seams of mortal peace.
Electric storms rage
within cranial confines,

tears roll down the cheek
when the grief at it's peak.
one tend to smile at the grief
but sometimes it's not so brief.
smile is also like tears
but generally not out of fear.
just like tears . . . more

I climb a barbed wire fence
to chase fat snow lambs and
dance across the meadow
swaying with the dandelion puffs
till suddenly I see I'm too close
to the thick, dark, scary woods,
a secret creepy . . . more

She, unknowing, with stillborn child,
Mellow in her youthfulness,
Loving in her wren-like narrowness,
Chided without humour
With her hawk-like tongue,
The wide paths of her short years.

When life is your muse
You are inspired every day
When life is an odyssey
You learn everyday
You pen down your fears
On a gloomy day
And paint a lovely picture
Spreading colors . . . more

I can think only of my love for you.
When I think of the magic of the moment
Every moment spent with you is new.
When I think of the magic of the moment
I close . . . more

Catching up
Here and there
Smile. Hug. Kiss
Holding me
Laying next to me
Having your way with me
Rest. Repeat. Walk away.
Door shuts
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of luck
Out . . . more

Why widows weep in the long night
And borrowed loves creep in the dark shades
Shall not be known till bishops move
And the vague dollies sing the wide halls
And wear their gowns for the long dead.

slow sipping the

wander the flickering
leaves through sun
beam shades
the picnic shore smile
in kodachrome tints of afternoons
as a child
big eyed the cicadas sing
