When my youngest was around 4 or 5 he simply... was too cute to have those lush curls... lol

Locks of Sun


I cut my wee boy’s curls today.
They were like wisps of spinning gold.  More >

In the Darkness


You tease my aching, tired heart
I lay in the darkness, in mesmerized silence
When in the formless void of vision
Your face and form are drawn before me  More >

On The Wings of Hope

On the wings of hope we live
That none walk in shadow’s path
Or wander in the lonely bracken
May we beckon with soft whispers  More >

The Specter's Hand

The specter's hand held forth the flame
It hovered above his withered palm,
As he walked the darkness with eerie calm.
Again he raises his hand up high,
Seeking out the ones to blame.  More >

By Fate's Decree

Whispered ardor in my dreams…
Fiery notes are played for me.
What depths shall I in the vortex fall?
Am I lost by fate's decree?
While your love, like errant sunbeams
Burst forth, enthrall.  More >

Meeting of Minds


There’s a meeting of minds ‘tween you and I,
Not defined by rules or wrought design.
Somehow it’s grown to exemplify,
The spirit joining of yours and mine  More >

Summer

Summer's hot gestures beckon me to cool resting waters
Brings my searing brow yearning for splashes
And giggles and sand in my shoes
For leapings and laughings
Rope swings and squealing twirls
Sunburnt boys and freckled girls
Frogs beware or they will soon ensnare
Your slimy wet greeness.
Oops!
Splash!
There he goes.

Come by the brook and rest your silk wings
Nestle near the stones thrown up from the lost cellars of time  More >

Sun God’s Caress

The sun burns my holo-white skin
Needles of flowing, piercing distress
Spare me, oh Ra, from your ire
Stop the transfiguring heat from within
Hide me from the Sun God’s caress
From the eye’s searing temple of fire  More >

Push or pull or gently jerk
You roll around without a care
Missing teeth, paws and hair  More >

Fingers trailing along my skin
Fire without and fire within

Softly Keep

I picked a sweet pink rose today,
And took it in without delay.
A rose like those we once grew,
Made me feel at once brand new,
Mother, your face touched my mind,
Your smile so winsome, your eyes so kind.
I will remember those days gone by,
How we’d laugh and how we’d cry.  More >

Our Feet in the Mist

Poised I see you there, a far flung star,
Out of reach, but burning hotly.
A solitary fire fed by my thoughts.
And you knowing the beacon sent.  More >

Half Remembered


In that secret place the water flows to the valley,
We gaze from the high mountain.
The breeze touches my face and I feel free,
To see the green of the valley with its grass and tree.
Turning, I smile at him and I wonder who he is.
How did he find me in my quietude?
He knows the secrets and he smiles.  More >

The Moonflower Bloom

Will I sleep in the dreamtime midst the moonflower bloom,
To wait for your face to come into my room?
Will you hasten to hold me until the bright dawn,
To rock me and love me till the evening is gone?  More >

Fly Again

Will we, with joy and pain of soul,
find a soft heart's repose?
Are the arrows of adversity and treachery always to seek us in our dark safe places?
Enticed forth we grasp a kindly hand,
which then turns to skeletal dripping horror before our eyes.
A horror of our own making, an inner vision of deception.  More >

At Eventide

It was eventide and I sat watching the sky
I could see the trees waving in the breeze
Three ducks flew over, going west
I was thinking, if I could do as I please
I would seek the when, where and why
Bringing my soul to life’s test  More >

Words that roll soft and cool
Down shaggy mountains
Into waiting soft caves  More >

Beyond

They flew beyond the stardust rings
With trailing bits of sparkling dust
Swinging by where the quasar sings
Riding on the space wind’s gust  More >

The Waiting Sky

Whither hence does the wand'ring hearts seek freedom's gentle rest?
Does it not rest in the softly blowing breezes?
Surely the taste of sea air brings the slumbers of calm courage.  More >
