• the seldom love

    Byjucasso

    the seldom love
    most sorry
    cannot bring to carry

    kept the stressful day
    oceans emotion
    stall tall squall in doubt of dawn

    red lines streak black sky with gray
    silver moon slip through crack in cloud
    wind blown winter score the Ice

    pelt the earth to her inner core
    a darker dimmer beam
    from shooting star recede

    angel hitch a ride
    trip where dipper lie
    let spirit be your guide

    an easy peace of pride
    extreme release unwind the night

    complete a kinder mind
    the sign of the dove.

  • a peaceful wish

    Byjucasso

    a peaceful wish
    amend the sorrowful heart

    may your birth
    be a source of wonder

    find love in everything kind
    as thoughts catch in tears

    the moon light the night
    to hug the earth

    in beauty of your life
    forgiveness sends the world
    to revolve around the cycle

    to bless the tame and the wild
    in miles and miles of valleys mountains
    breeze blowing trees grassy pastures

    long rocky winding rivers frozen pacified
    white Ice solid marbled
    tree limbs caught in fog steaming cold content

    highway running dart through black hills silhouette
    the wind shifts over the wet countryside upset
    forget regret the worldly cause refuse

    return relent renew
    know love as you knew

    love you more with every dawn
    the love is you.

  • the distant summer

    Byjucasso

    the distant summer
    aloof in winters bare
    fallen snow follow
    soon left the swallow
    bird of flight quiet night

    sky violet light cool blue azure bright
    mixture rain and ice
    the fragments of a fixture triangular angular suffice
    spare change the faculty cries
    mammoth hysteria the autocrat experiential

    mental prowess experimental
    illumines potential
    be well the time elemental
    glow ever gentle reverence The Messiah
    shy away the dependance survival

    semi-conscious streams realize dreams
    chase tomorrow looking back archival
    notes sing of spring sanctuary
    every living thing in memory
    find fraternal favor a humility

    bear roses in-enmities
    recite sweet sentiment
    play instruments of merriment
    regard the cold with wool and glove
    forgive the world with love.

  • tundra firm undaunted

    Byjucasso

    tundra firm undaunted
    sacred soil anointed
    harmonious roses nap
    in lap of twig and dirt entrapped

    slapping wind-rough winter
    bitter cold mutter brittle bones
    the timber of your voice cracks splinters
    ageless foliage struck in wonder wither

    freeze the breeze frozen weed
    steamy frost sent centigrade
    lanterns line the lane glow Ice on window panes
    perfect tears of Heaven came

    water down the plain insistent rain
    a random kiss a borrowed bliss we will remain

    a wanted wish to get the gist in longing years
    resist a grit of earthly ground
    I wish you safe and sound

    censor relevant fantasy
    temper in December upset sanity
    defy the cry of innocence
    in the imbalance of your chemistry
    set fire brilliant destiny

    ignite night lethargy
    glimpse the moon in memory
    speak to me tenderly.

  • an olive branch

    Byjucasso

    a greater distance to the sun from earth
    paint underneath my fingernails the work to file
    deny my mother and her first born child
    deep chill my heartbeat still on trial
    older than a tree root rots
    misgivings tied to have me nots
    assert the failures of composure angry hot
    middle of day the right to have their say
    no matter what
    a break in the weather a mix of sun and rain
    our tears forbidden words bring angst a cruelest pain
    a flux corrode like rust repeat the same refrain
    you cannot trust the ones you love so much
    with loneliness to claim no loyalty no gain
    as a moon will wane I think we go insane
    for what is love but someone else to blame
    let light shine in eyes that look deep blue
    as wide as an ocean she will rescue you
    she is my mother bearing flowers
    she is the ear that listens for hours
    she cries the tears when she feels powerless
    she is my dear she is my love an angel the sign of the dove
    offering an olive branch
    on the other end of the phone telling me she loves me
    while eating olives.

  • a little while longer

    Byjucasso

    stay on the earth plane
    a little while longer
    madrigal phantom
    canyon hills gather beginnings
    endings fill the filament
    lament the will i met

    ointment rub away sorrow
    without you in tomorrow
    unkempt medusa
    rude enthusiasm sought the seeker
    some truth a pot of lies
    an artists proof an angel cries

    see the parting of the ways
    form a more perfect union
    arrays of new ones
    along the palisades-
    bathe in a glade down streams
    self consciousness gray the greens

    pity how she bleeds
    without that special someone-
    wife Mother Earth
    the stormy affair of her life’s work
    stillness walk in silence
    encourage benevolence

    sayer in troubled southern skies-
    through skirting issues
    tissues and a cane
    rebel cause the second came
    doubtful discriminations
    alter egos enflaming flames

    fire burn bright yellow
    flicker whiskey sours
    past partaken
    mistaken identity
    there is a better you in me
    someone I long to see
    who has a thing for spring

    purple pleasantries
    swipe the card of plenty
    tell me when you’re ready
    to the tune of a medley
    swoon the moon overwhelming
    the tide rushes very

    deep within the sea belly
    beauty of a whale
    may catch her tail
    her little calves running
    through wind tossed waves
    strewn prawn
    sea turtles seaweed jellyfish

    storms to coast the calm
    red flags reserve to warn
    floods flash reservoirs
    seasick senses surface
    race to rocky shores
    where seagulls swear and soar.

  • close the eyes of sleep

    Byjucasso

    silent rain
    calm a quiet blinding ache
    that settles on the earthy plain
    bought the cost that came
    the right of every turn
    intuitive memory
    the enemy misunderstood
    the countless rescue
    deny the rash of thoughtlessness
    has you down and out again
    to pen a mosaic moray
    in a way offering serenity
    honor with dignity
    the fruits of the orchard
    the harvest here upon us
    baked apple pies will warm us
    angel cakes with sugared crust
    when summer days adored as much
    yet now for autumn calls us
    breaking bread will cure us
    give thanks to God and more
    the answer is the core
    the center of it all
    where nights are like a door
    to close the eyes of sleep
    and catch the tears that weep
    to sweep the hands of time
    for something deep
    in the middle of a most enchanted dream
    I give you hugs and kisses
    with love and many wishes
    as there are fishes in the ocean
    and as many boats
    to float in the lap of caps
    harbor great hope
    the sky holds a million stars
    to shine across this world of ours.

  • prism

    Byjucasso

    the hope of borrowed moments
    may fill a heart with torments
    the little deaths that wreck
    your breath for clarity intolerant
    whisper sweet solace
    tell me you are honest
    in melodious abandon
    the most wonderful wisdom
    as clear as the planes on a prism
    hear bells ringing the singing of
    little faeries winging
    see a seabird in flight to bring
    a peaceful night
    write a song of longing
    for beautiful bright morning
    at the threshold of the dawn
    i pray you will stay and not be gone
    as a mother gives birth
    so must a child let go.

  • calls to beckon

    Byjucasso

    grapple
    “push-pull”
    enorvating
    walk for miles
    stars glue
    to the constructive sky

    analyze invert
    stride paths
    the pathological embrace
    to goad the heard
    hanging onto their every word

    discover the pearl
    without a wicked world
    to seeth outcast out of reach
    seize to capture me
    captsize you at sea

    exemplary great monarch
    butterflies fly free
    freezing on a beach in winter
    gray day gray overcoat
    black cap brimming no sunning
    sing soothing songs
    rejoice in the camrederie
    shine your ability
    grit a homily

    answer calls to beckon
    lessons learned are welcome
    pinch of salt expressions
    won’t get us to Heaven
    unless they come with directions

    direct attention to the bread unleavened
    we the people
    like our Peligrino with lemon
    tempt fate read tarot
    in the fight to stay alive pursue the dawn
    without your love i am gone
    gone out of mind forever long

    longing for short-cuts
    a bandage for a bruise
    color me black and blue
    in regard to taking it hard
    when i lose
    paintings poems friends of bluest hue
    true friends need hugs
    as rivers feel the rapids ever race
    to find a waterfall
    a flower in a vase

    to catch a gush upon a blushing face
    enter into a state of grace
    as ever was a peace to put in place
    children succeed when they are safe

    if grownups never grow up
    they hurt and cannot heal
    in fantasy the dragon slain
    the air is fresh and clear

    everyone is dear to love
    the sun in summer sets
    the beauty of it’s timelessness

    reality is meant
    to pay the rent and earn your debt
    a hard hard place to get
    to have it all or lose it
    whom of us would choose it?

    speak words of love like cello music
    a flute like a memoir
    soft in sweet harmony
    marry the magical monastical
    moved to tears
    fantastical dreams in homage.

  • bare branches

    Byjucasso

    design regard with resolve
    ubiquitous solicitous narcissism
    in the heart of rhythm
    a mannerism
    commit decision
    darkness covers exhibition
    suffer intangibles harsh conditions
    rigid mind encounters religion
    anti-up inhibition
    please please yourself
    sing songs to sooth
    teach me all you know
    research your soul
    clip wings in a folder
    we are one year older
    my handsome winsome soldier
    love you need you know you
    thank you for your time of day
    leaves settle down from skies of gray
    flowers gone soon
    worship the bloom
    until the leaves fall to the ground in autumn
    forsaking bare branches.
