The Oak
In company of daisies,
and bluebells in the field,
you stand noble, ever mighty,
With the wisdom that you yield,
In your bough you hold newborn,
helpless Magpies in your arms,
Squirrels skip . . . more

Cast by the pale moonlight,
I could faintly hear the ticking,
Of the watch upon my wrist,
And the crisp . . . more

Autumn and Me
The scent of sodden leaves inspires senses,
I feel primal as I venture into the dark,
My modern values and ways hold no meaning,
Me and the world have drifted miles apart,
Through the foliage . . . more

Vivid Waters
Vivid dreams carried upon the water,
Drift by as the river gently flows,
Thoughts of her infused in morning sunlight,
Hypnotize upon a dancing golden glow,
Her face upon the surface softly . . . more

Cool canopy of green,
sunlight filtered onto our mossy bed
as we look up at the sky, so blue;
Branches rejoice
as birds sing an unknown melody,
beautiful in its simplicity;
We close . . . more

as a retiree, put out of the business world,
people say I should have plenty of time,
but, whatever time is,

A World of White
I listen to the cadence of the wind,
As snow falls upon the lonely streets of night,
My breath hangs upon the misted window pane,
As the world beyond my window sleeps in white,
The serenity . . . more

a single
breath
is as profound
as each subtle vein
engorged
upon the skin
of solitary leaf
it parachutes
to an inevitable death
a tightrope artist
tripping on time
calling skyward
eyes upon branches . . . more

A golden ball of flame,
Dropping slowly in the horizon
Lighting the sky with it's brilliance
A hue of golden colors is silhouetted
Across the still clear waters . . . more

And you were very beautiful

When I was a little body guard for you
I remember Dad fighting . . . more

I knew, you loved me
But I didn't know
What to do then
As I was in my teens
I knew, you loved me
When I first met you as a neighbor
When you smiled at me
As you were talking . . . more
