"Crystal clear" repeats in my mind,
Your lenses, crystal clear--
Twin orbs of blue, polished by tears
Of your lovely making
To tease my heart to plead for you
To spend eternity
With . . . more

Arced plate of steel sky
Unblemished by solar blue,
Seals the somber force
Within the ancient spectrum,
Appropos for muscled drudge

I will ask your eyes for permission
To enter the space of your aura.
And if you grant it to me,
I will raise my mouth to
Sweetly kiss your cheeks
As one would greet an old . . . more

I can put my collection in a box
When I compose a picture of its time;
I can take the collection out and gaze
At the contrast between then and today—
Or of the kindred times between themselves; . . . more

Blend in streaming flows of tears
Trees so dear I close sore eyes
To hear rustling, windy cheer

Eyes peer to know
What awaits me
On this brisk day
Pitching in seas
Capped by white spume--
Wickedly flicked
As briny spray
Past a proud bow
Risen and smug,
Into my face
For fine effect. . . . more

Born special with a neck rising from a crouch to corona pride;
Beauty spreads with each yellow flower in the trumpet
Until the strain of time living immersed in a false lifeline
Overpowers the flowering . . . more

I have waited
my whole life
to feel this way.
Dreamed about you
long ago.
I have imagined

A fantasy that

I can't believe
I am here with . . . more

Perched upon this rock
looking over the earth below
searching for answers
in your beauty.
Find me up here
hiding from troubles
soaring in a dream
of challenged hope. . . . more

fearing he will sense her hatred
he will know her plan.

An inviting time
Of gentle breezes
Beside a canal,
Feet dangling over
An ancient stone wall,
Hungry, eager ducks
Rasping their demand
For the bread you drop
Past your sun-warmed knees . . . more

My heart is full,
My head is stuffed.
I am glutted
By all things good;
You dazzle my eyes,
Squeeze my hands,
Scent my dreams,
Honey my tongue,
Lilt in my ears;
You course my soul
That I cannot . . . more

Black as sin,
With promise only in my mind
For yesterday’s rays
To return and
Light my path again . . .
Still black with no hint
Of today’s picture’s lines-- . . . more

Only to collide and grind
To sand
Rough motes on a stormy day
Allowed past fabric sentries
To live
Sprinkled as cops breaking feuds
Of . . . more

Safe within the castle, tall--
Blocky, rocky home and
Self made jail
To keep marauders out,
Souls give rise to wistful cries
For strolls without the walls
Where all is touched
By gentle skies of shifting, . . . more

Opening doors to long lost loves,
Shouting down shafts with no end,
Does no one hear my laments,
Loneliness without end,
Craving light while . . . more

Not a Monday or a Tuesday but a Sunday,
And it was Easter that Sunday,
She couldn't wait, impatient . . . more
