Horizon
There’s two views to see What will be, will be Or Will you make something happen? Rise up from the depths Your solemn regrets And Live your destiny Upon the lighted horizon.

Chimes in the Wind
Chimes in the wind Ride the waves of air; Their subtle melody Tickle lonesome ears. Those who seek to hear Songs of different tunes; Soothing notes relax And discreetly distract. The hectic pace we keep Where simple things get lost; We overlook the melody And discount the cost. With each gust of wind A singular… Read More Chimes in the Wind
Bright Yellow and Soft Petals
Some days are cold and gray Damp and dark, they fade away Without notice; Until replaced by Bright yellow and soft petals. Mixed drops of water From angry clouds and sad eyes Free fall; Evaporating to reveal Bright yellow and soft petals. At the close of each day As your memory seeps further away From… Read More Bright Yellow and Soft Petals
Colors of Spring
A little house To welcome you; A blue roof And red walls, too. Sheltered by pines Dressed in snowy white, Wear nature’s design; Winter season’s last fight. To hide lively colors: Our sure sign of spring, And all of the wonders She surely will bring. Blooms and chirps, And drops from above, Remind us all… Read More Colors of Spring
Shadow Play
You first appeared That time of year When the sun is strong And the air is clear You tease and mimic My every move Making me ask What you have to prove You tag along Whether I walk or run Twisting this way or that We move as one I turn to confront You with… Read More Shadow Play
Garden of Youth
It’s where we’d meet To rest our feet We’d talk and then we’d listen; To the whispers Floating by our ears Trying to tell if far or near, Or if truth or lies were spoken. And then we’d laugh As innocent children Playing in a magic garden; Where fairies dance With elves by chance And… Read More Garden of Youth
A Winding Path
A winding path To nowhere fast Yet toward everything And anything imagined. Where dreams exist Spoken from lips Of speculative hope And forward focus. Toward what exists On a changing horizon From crystal blue To full moon rising. Today is now Tomorrow is then Next year reveals Where we’ll have been. Questions answered Truths revealed… Read More A Winding Path
Downstream
Many miles seen and traveled Across rolling hills and fields Cutting through chasms and rock Forming mud and mossy yields. Flowing under rustic covered bridges Past bustling freeways; country roads Where ducks search for dinner Hunting plump, chirping spring toads. Camouflaged by weeds and water Webbed feet, swimming with fishes In the depths of deep… Read More Downstream
Of Gull and Guy
I watch you You don’t see me On this fine day By the sea Crashing waves White spray wetting the air Distracting; Enticing Mesmerized, you remain unaware Of me on the rock My chosen resting place Where I watch the show Against overcast airspace Of a curious man And his camera too Focused on the… Read More Of Gull and Guy
Paint me a Memory
Paint me a colorful memory; One I want to keep Deep in my treasured thoughts Across the line of time. Make it one worth keeping A scene not to forget A happy tree, decorated white A sky ablaze, last sunlight. In need of something beautiful; Upon this scene I’ll look At colors, reminiscent of… Read More Paint me a Memory
