On the floor
Ripped and bleeding.
And you came...
My pain hidden
So you couldn't see
And you
Thought I had
Saved YOU.
I was on my
Knees, desperately
Begging for help.
Was breathing my

If it's beauty that we're after
It's in the love and laughter
Of playing children
Flowers, pets
In hugs and smiles
The sun that sets
All free and widespread
Heaven bound
In parks and . . . more

Arced plate of steel sky
Unblemished by solar blue,
Seals the somber force
Within the ancient spectrum,
Appropos for muscled drudge

THE VINE WE CLING TO
They say the world can take you
Into mud way past your boots
Or try to split you... pull you from the roots
But we're so entangled and in so deep
We couldn't just slip... . . . more

Teardrops of blood
Raining involuntary
From my pierced, dyng heart.,
Souls howling sorrowfully.
Tragic spirits, dark and starless.
Fiilling my aura
With rips and gashes,
Allowing blackness . . . more

Couples walking side by side, hand in hand
Sharing the beauty of the day.
I wonder if they realize how lucky they are
Just to have someone to walk with

His breathing; fast
Head resting on the floor
His whiskers; white
Purrs; waiting at the door
With his paws he hugs me
With his eyes he loves me
Trusting with his life, his soul
At heart . . . more

and lets Loves light touch our face
how is that one cannot see what lies before him
and how is it then that he can see when its no longer for him

When she sees him,
her first thought
is of the myth of the Yup'ik
and the hundreds of words
they have for snow.
It seems unfair that English
does not provide her
with hundreds . . . more

EVERY BREATH OF LYRICAL GRACE
Every breath of lyrical grace may lend voice to a song
Give lift and lilt to a note to entice lovers to gather
And so it is ...
The breath of a whisper draws me to linger . . . more

The delicate warmth of a candle flicker
Recalls the innocent simmer of first kiss
But now it does blaze across fire tempered face
As it trails down into the hollow . . . more

The
Pause
Before
The silence
Is even greater
Than your words of hurting, my love.
Do not think I cannot hear the unsaid, the dark rift.

Dream Keepers write obscure poems
Read by few and understood by fewer.

For most of his life, he had thought of himself secretly as a monk
And the whole world as his monastery.
But lately he realized that he was more of a pilgrim, a wanderer.
Monks were stable and fixed . . . more

Ignites a spark, spreading through

When you look at him
When you look at his tiny perfect face
All you see are eyes and ears
Eyes that at once imply innocent knowing
As if he somehow understands that his ancestors
