West 11.04.2022

Send us Fan Mail West Sunlight fading,  the baroque colored  clouds,  clearing above  the western edges,  beneath the windswept evening,  the deepening hush,   of twilight skies,  and  into the silence, along the deserted path,  beneath  the early blossom beautiful  upon the springtime trees, ripples  a stream  beside me,  hearing my words with her laughter and my footsteps  I walk  along  the cho...

Taking Flight 10.04.2022

Outside 05.04.2022

Send us Fan Mail Outside Outside,  the storm bends  and twists  the hidden trees,  beneath the racing dark  of roaring skies,  and here  here I I lie,  wrapped in quilts  of warmth and quiet,  beneath the blinded stare  of window glass,  hearing the shaking,  the creaking eaves,  the first of rain,  the heavy drops  of leaden sky,  the calamitous clash,  the shattering thuds  of thunder  rolling u...

She Walked 04.04.2022

Send us Fan Mail She walked She walked  in the rain,  the skies weeped, silently, slate grey  the clouds above,  calling her name For the puddles  danced with her reflections  as empty people  walked by, oblivious,  to her pain they never thought, never wondered,  never stopped, to ask or even consider, why For as spring,  she turned  and lay sleeping,  wrapped in last year’s  leaves, dreaming  me...

The Memory of Rain 28.03.2022

Send us Fan Mail The Memory of Rain (for RDK) Lights on the hill,  shimmering stars, at the end  of a summer’s day,  the hushed breath  of evening,  late whispers upon the terrace,  laughter, across the dusk,  but I’m just passing  through this way.

Send us Fan Mail Fire-tips of trees Below the moon,  across the fire tips  of sunset  l saw the flames  of evening trees,  beyond the colors  of spring,  were blue,  coppers and golds,  they merged and rippled,  beneath the gilded dance of bees,  for they weaved  the last glow  of sunlight,  in a myriad of clouds  and the busy hum  of their thousand voices,  I stood and watched them, hearing wonde...
