• ethereal tree

    ethereal tree in the forrest cathedral
    shimmer winsome bird wing
    crisp Autumn air bring slim stem
    blue azure grass capture frost
    the cost of losing you
    lost in the shadows
    rain like tears dripping droplets on branches
    strip the evening mottled leaf
    that fill the ground with grief
    creature stir black fur buries to ashes
    shadow of a darker moon cry to sea
    waves crash bluer
    i never meant to hurt the wonder
    it was a wonderful summer
    salt in the wound plunder put the mood asunder
    fire brimstone thunder
    upset depth deep dark sorrow
    forgive an ancient debt
    that may free us from regret tomorrow.

  • Enders of the east

    hibiscus sweet sugary dark bark
    no worry tender twig upon the heart
    dug deep into mineral floor the flora
    decades steep in soil root mute curl coil
    in a land as loyal enders of the east
    receive the royal Golden Pear and Goldberg bagel feast
    all the spoils are anointed
    by the romantic Atlantic
    castaway long summer sway trees warm wind skim shore
    pack trunk dump junk
    leave the bible in the drawer
    fold clothes from the dryer
    hot as if they were on fire
    by the Sound and telephone wire
    we are all famous in the Hamptons
    liable to listen to Lionel train his quartet
    in a most blue moody moon-set
    dance to the stereo
    strangers well meant amusement
    soon the snow and ice will trickle the pipes sacrifice
    summer ’18 fill a memory
    augment autumn upon us author autonomy
    search the birch for parchment
    as we did in Larchmont
    leave every leaf in place
    beguiled thoughts to file
    rile denial look my way your smile christen day
    wild child please don’t turn away
    fate is late thank God for time
    that has us pray for yours and mine.

  • for you

    for you
    sage fume
    cloudy mist tint blue
    green stem stalk past
    the pasture where we laughed
    smiling sun upon purple plum
    kiss
    the blossom of her care
    she sympathize the eyes of cries
    regarding butterflies
    delicate creatures perfect features
    pond meadow rainbow 🌈 rose the row of colored crows in Autumn leaves that glow
    then to leaf through books
    that bind the mind back through time line for line
    winter cometh the spruce and pine embark the heart ♥️ of rhyme.

  • burnt blue orange flame

    burnt blue orange flame
    great harmony troubled
    chaos clatter bells
    see among the mire
    heart fall in winter
    call contagious rage
    seethe silent grief
    violent heaving stir thoughts
    of her leaving
    feeling foolish
    brood mood consume evening
    slowly chaste raw moon
    give peace
    an incredible place believing
    circumstance follow interlude
    heart felt rebellion twist my confession
    professional courtesy dire-
    love her
    throughout all eternity
    the summer fill the day
    burnt-out August lulled cool
    autumn blew the leaves away

    winter looks colder than a dare
    raped the autumn trees leaves them bare
    in meadow mellow angels throw and catch their halos
    like frisbees in the air
    breezes crispy crackle sparks
    fiery discs dart back and forth
    faceted quartz lite different parts
    humble the tumbled ore
    from deep within earths core
    so are we as deep as a sea
    no sight of shore
    and you coming through
    like you never have before
    I respect your pain
    I love you like the grain of salt in rain

    moved to tears
    the fleeting years come and go
    you’re tireless wireless
    exceptional professional

    raincloud paint the sun upset-
    I pray the angels dry the sky
    gentle beauty in her eyes
    she cries to be in love.

  • calm cool breezes

    autumn calm cool breezes blow
    leaves turn shades red to gold
    mesmerise a sunrise glow
    a forest stream the even flow

    virgin serpents bluest sea
    your eyes looking deep
    in my heart as ever was so sweet
    dream met time for sleep

    kind regard the harvest moon
    yellow golden fires flame
    revel light ignite reflection pure
    beach grass stir in weather warm
    soon the ocean wake

    promise you care
    love that will not pain
    i’ll tell you when the war is at an end
    welcome autumn sun
    the falling rain
    in a season fall again.
