6Poems written over 20 years as an ode & a smile
the words they drift so softly
rising on the breeze
all the things you said to me
this heart opens and bleeds
all starry skies leap forth as if denied
life thought perfect within the tide
the white wilted black
crimson night sack
so old the stories of then
I turn my back on what's been
beyond the doors of perception
I drift on the breeze
and the dreams I'm living
are these...
these days sweep by us all,
as the sweetness of roses tasted,
the pounding waves answer the call,
as the sleet of salt is never wasted,
glass fixtures become visions of light,
airy domains beckon us forth,
we are the beauty & magic of earth,
stars to guide the ships at night,
resilient truth, to the blindless sight,
holy salvation in this divine birth,
hoping for all eternity is worth
Twilight eyes open unto dawn's violet hue
as the waves in the sea, in temptation through
casts of slivered love to be tamed by the sun
the task begun as the moment of birth is won
a crystalline sphere drifts upon a pole of light
the lantern beam's thrown furthest in the night
come to me with breaths as soft as dandelions
sing to me of choices past theaters of time
create a scene in pastels & in blue
come to me... I long only for you
Magic
a picturesque vista, reflected from the vacant waters of a moonlit pond
the words have no meaning, except a form found far beyond
in a heart's lonely tomb, life is received as if in faith
as starry pictures of yesterday, in time, to sit & wait
feel free to touch me, taste this place in time
a memory is but colours running, to form yet another line
pictures of yesterday seen anew in a present tense
the moments have changed, gaining momentum in events
call to me softly, as a ghostly vision found in a mirror
the feelings of ecstasy, as I run fingers through sunlit hair
in mountains of madness, within the mirrored caverns of the insane
true love is found running, like so many colours in the rain
crystalline dew drops drawing pain from ocean laid eyes
the truth is in words, nothing ever truly dies
A lantern casts her lonely glare upon a siren's sea
whose love she had once lost
the ships pass the harbor, gold in the eyes, dust in the mouth
blind to the waves o'er crossed
speak to me of pleasure, speak to me of pain
tell me the cherished hopes, known only to the rain
laugh with me as we recant the joke of the divine
"Shall Christ be the Grape & We the wine?"
laughter rings softly, as souls believe
a cheap thrill can be found here
past all that is held dear
it is you I fear
my Love
Hold this heart, a glass of melting ice
Look through the window, a vision of burning eyes
Corrupt not the day, can the times stay the same?
the thoughts of an inner heart hold no memories so tame
as we climb the cliff, where hell overhangs heaven
open pandora's Box, the noxious vapors breathe in
sands trickling stone, making love in the waves
The soul may disguise the secrets the body craves
trembling Lucy tells her mother what she would like to do
standing firm, her mother, like another (her own mother) says choose
trembling Lucy shows her mother what it is she does
falling down, her own mother, falls like love
into the blood
trembling Lucy, opens doors where others fear to tread
she opens doors, she opens books, others may have read
but the words, when she sees them, seem to slip and fail
some doors never open, although they stand with many
some doors, once they're opened, close minds aplenty
trembling Lucy opens all, each & every one she sees
& as they're opened they fall down, fall like love
into the blood
trembling Lucy, she's so wise, she cleans the doors of paint
stripped & naked, sometimes they speak, sometimes they faint
whether standing or lying down, she'll do her duty by them all
for that's what she does
she falls
falls like love
in the blood
(trembling Lucy is me)
