  • Merry Christmas

    joy in the celestial
    bring 3 wisemen ephemeral
    from farthest hills
    walk the dusty plain
    call out His name
    The Lord is born in Bethlehem
    rejoice rejoice the people have
    one voice
    music flow like water to the sea
    tears of thanks wash over me
    river banks beckon no regret
    bright star shine
    the night
    is calm
    Mary with the child
    in her arms.

  • in a manger

    it so happens to be
    the incline of eternity
    a rose garden no stranger
    planted hydrangeas
    fish swim free likened
    to ponds of birds the swallow
    hurt in hollow words
    the evergreen shadow
    over earth the magic fan
    that shades her name
    as wind and rain
    upon the plain of evermore
    I ask for sunshine cool in weather
    fortuitous waters sweep
    in fountains parks and green
    the milestones of peeps
    where after all she takes the call
    that answers something deep and all
    the revenue that rage fell through
    was never intended to upset you
    as ever was a fairy dust
    to move a mountain or two because
    I love you more becomes the day
    and kneel beside your heart today
    to ask forgiveness for my thoughts
    that faults deliverance in wilderness remorse
    so wild keen the smiling of
    a dawn to deem her rising sun
    the where of been
    with no regret to give up yet
    I ask you with so much love respect
    to think of me with no upset
    the magic never left your side
    I dream a dream
    grateful for your kindness
    thankful for your wonder
    lightning and thunder
    found in a manger
    in my mind.

  • God peer back

    pale sky the color of champ-ale
    golden dragon pursue an ivory tail
    that bodes as well for boats
    to sail the coasts those embedded
    ruby eyes the fire roars the angels sigh to dive into seas of clouds
    not asking for a reason why the dawn
    is quick to humble hearts as swells will drench our summer hides till
    autumn-seabirds laugh take a bath
    proud to call out loud their
    fresh fish dinner catch-all is well into the
    winter where souls
    at the right hand of God peer back over the green-colored Earth
    onward upward anointed
    somewhere in summer it’s snowing
    in the rose garden of my drawing.

  • hob-nobbins

    alone away out west the plain
    you in my heart again
    seems seasons since
    such sparrows came
    may hear the angels spar and then
    whirr endangered linger on
    in a blur of colder texture
    wrapped in cloth inside a manger
    hear that sounds little stranger
    our tears fall into favor
    remain the rain reclaim the savior
    seek the fruit chilled juice to savor
    as sweet a wine to bring a truce
    envy port your sweet merlot
    as very varied berries go
    impartial to the cordial host
    call hob-nobbins and the ghosts
    to walk around your lovely town
    minimal at most.

  • by the water

    when faith is wax a primal
    sheen,
    upon the text of nevertheless taken too extreme
    down by the cold clear stream
    walk on water
    first sins washed away
    we were young and gay
    innocent the nubile babe
    in her mothers crescent arms
    soft cheek hand feet beside the borrowed creek
    where suns and moons spin sleek and cool
    to sound their round physiques
    to lift
    daylight to nestle in nests made from
    nettles petals twigs stem leaves mud clay
    every being should have her day in the sun
    walk with me by the water take my hand
    bring us peace. Amen.

  • rite

    rite
    all in a days night
    the Romanesque march
    by candlelight
    a curious quest
    as the sun goes down
    in the west
    rumor laid to rest
    upon the heartless hills
    we do our best
    less is more our ills
    yet never was the world as wild
    since first I saw it as a child
    beyond the rainbow sky of gold
    the hand of God warm and old
    trumpets announce His arrival
    I paint it on paper archival
    and pray to The Lord
    to melt the heart of woe.
