Murmurs to Love By
Sweet scented night wind
Rustles trees to sweet music
We clasp hands and squeeze

It Points the Way
Whither goes the bow
Compass planned and set with care
Now it points the way

Chrysanthemums show
An ornamental beauty
That tastes delicious

Natural Bluster
Gales, fitful wind spits,
Billows of icy air howl,
Flail tormented trees.

As does man’s perspiration
In light of the sun

Dislodged pebble rolls,
Writes its journey in the sand--
A legend is born.

Focus draws the twig
Forth from a wind-placed muster
To speak pine language
The translator hears
Silent stories to record
Rigors shaping twigs
Places affected
By presence of happenstance . . .

Made with care by mom's own hands
Is sweeter for it

Tall slender grace in the swamp

Flit as blown by fitful wind
Landed, stick in mud

For roses and deep shadows
Pour me a cool drink

There is only so much dreaming to be done before taking the trip to your house with all the breathless heartpounding anticipation born of the dreams
Dream World
You lay past the quest . . .

For Noah
Rivers of raindrops
Deposit volumes in banks
As floods polish stones

Beyond the Pane
The red-tinted rose
Leans into the sooty pane
And begs for sunshine
