Mellow
Day reminds me
Breathe deep the rising air
That lifts the songbird on its wings
Under clouds sent to mute the breaking sun
While the window composes . . .

A muse
Eyes a light
Laugh and I will laugh too
Cry and I will pour my secrets
Like I pour wine into your empty glass
While you make lies a wish I write
Lines a memory scratched . . .

I didn't think I wanted you
Didn't think I needed to
What makes me hold back,
What makes me afraid--
I might fall for you--
And then what would I do,
If one day . . .

Red rock sentinels
Secrets soaked into shadow
Weighted down with time

If inside me were a city
With buildings made of words
Then love would be the lava
That buries them unheard
I know you want an answer
When you ask me how I feel

Walking
One foot forward
Eye to toe, toe to ground
Wind caresses sun touches cheek
Step stepping into the moment; breathe, breathe
Deer lifts its head, looks, rabbit runs
Crow flies . . .

Woke up
Distant, dreamy
Dark blended illusion
Creamy low fat café latte

Restless
Fingers fidget
Up and down, walk around
Sit and stare while click-clack keys write
Rubbish

Never
Mind the other
Wise words will win at last
Time comes too late to hinder death
Bed soft and welcome warm against the cold
Blooded killer wind weathered . . .

Two wide
This bed of mine
Half empty without you
Warm side, my side, cold side, your side
Can I forgive you leaving me alone?
Strong one, mine was, weak one, yours . . .

Dew drops
Waking on grass
Reflect daybreak rising
Night surrenders dreams lost in light
Wind whispers and leaves bare limbs uncovered
She lifts her hands above her head

Promises
Broken before
You meant to keep your word
Hidden in illusion and hope
Silent

The following is an excerpt from merlore. Do you believe that merpeople (aka mermaids and mermen) exist or once existed?
My Love, the Sea
What do I love, I love the sea
The sea, . . .

I am from the silence that sang
Stars into the sky
I am from the darkness that painted
Tears into my eyes
I am from the brush that imagined
Mountains into rain
I am from the emptiness that . . .

Breaking
Dawn bells ringing
Forming lines making minds
All stand alike from short to tall
Pledge, learn, list, look out windows Saturdays
Castles built in recesses lost
To bells commanding . . .

Mother
You are the artist of my life
You made me with your love
Brushed light into my eyes
Understanding into my heart
Curiosity into my mind

Icy
Glacier calving
Blue birds white wings melting
As they dive down into the sea
Clouds part winds drop howling currents calling
Follow me to warmer waters
Blind to fate . . .

Dogs need to run, but some people don't like to be dog snogged while they take a Sunday stroll. Dog parks make everybody happy.
Dogs run off-leash and learn to socialize, owners take leisurely . . .

Looking up at you
Looking down
Looking through
All I'm trying to do
Is talk to you
Some call me
An old soul
It's just that I can't say
What's . . .

Winter wind whips leaves
Budding trees dance shadows long
Awaiting rainfall
