The story: legend.
We are as tossed by currents
-
The dawn light caught her,
half awake smile, and she
-
Her kisses tangled my feelings.
I would answer them another time,
-
-
The last butterfly, that brushed
my cheek, flew into the sun.
-
Restrained from slipping
into more than what is
-
-
I drink the silence.
The full moon wears the clouds
-
-
I wanted to write,
fell asleep by my pad . . .
-
Breeze slips from the branches
tangles my hair with playful fingers.
-
Barefoot and fancy free with a touch of mud
upon the cheek, you wandered

The rime has left the salt crystalized
upon the mouth of the sea, snow burns
-
Oh! little butterfly flap your wings
You are so pretty when you fly
-
Cogent, concise
logic driven, precise

-
long ago
in beautiful days
-
Her smiles danced --
froth on a wave,
-
-
The wisps of magic stirred
round ankles. Cats -- electric fur.
-
Fog to mist to gentle rain,
my light is obscured by waters,
-
Her laughter curls
around flames,
teasing them
-
Skirted breeze spills the dandelion seed;
lets the ballet swirl spin as far as I can see.
-
She climbs through my branches,
breaks off leaves, makes fans to ease the heat,
-
Sat on a rock -- the light played across the brook --
let the sun soak into me. The light danced
-
The glass organ sang its hymns.
Finger on rims tuned as gems.
-
Sharp, cold the off shore rain
complains of aches and how the wind
-
your eyes answered my question before I knew to ask.
-
Caught in the stillness of an echo,
the fog betrays itself, smearing
-
The morning air: cider fresh, crisp as a MacIntosh.
I soak in the sanguine maples, roll in the gold of oaks.
-
where each wave is crested with the froth of joy ~
-
We were the wind, the white sails
feeling the hard thrum of the waves against the hull.
-
our fingertips, when touching,
look like a bridge of flesh collecting trolls.
-
Your fingers on my lips.
held my whispers, let them collect ~
-
With toss of froth,
spume splashed, spreads
-
-
The last lance of sunlight,
‘ere the sky becomes bloody
-
Trust crushed
into the roots finds no answer.
-
These words that lie scattered across the page,
the black and white shadows of the verbal camera
-
Poets make love out of waves, feathers left on a bench,
the endless progression of eternity’s that knock
upon a door.
-
Everything I am demands I become more
than this role I have been destined to portray.
-
My reflection ~ found in her
waters, carved into a possibility.
-
-
-
-
Tree’s memories run deep
where the earth becomes liquid.
-
Silence has wings and they are full of colors
-
The moonlight’s silver brush
reveals what’s hidden by darkened hush.
