I beg these waking eyes of mine
be bless-ed with the sight of thine
when first they open come each morn
as windows in new sunrise born

poem
Reveal To Me (a one minute rhyme)
reveal to me the textures soft
you show me in my dreams
your fragrant velvet petals
that envelop me within
then take me deep inside you warm
and bind me to your light
us sated both in silk embrace
our common souls delight.
5-7-5 (take-two-hundred-and-thirty-four : hopeku)
the roads behind us
crack like ice and fall away
our dreams wait ahead
Bang!
a star exploded
one thousand years from here
its passion
too much for gravity to contain
and having little choice
but to rain itself
unable to restrain itself
in tumescent violence
across the universal void
and find us waiting
to share its elemental fires
with each other.
5-7-5 (take-two-hundred-and-thirty-three : the gods’ act)
the ocean has bled
and the earth wept for her mate
but we are the storm
notes unfinished like the day
What had we wished this day to be?
it’s dimming eyes dare ask of me
now that it succumbs to twilight’s grace
never more to raise its face
excepting when in fondness thought
and memory sounds its fair report
of lost and golden yesterdays
gilded by tomorrow’s praise.
A Wandering Minstrel Sings
I thought upon three birch trees
where two brooks sang together
and though just one heart beat there
it will beat for you forever
Trap Set
lace draping,
dew weighting
waiting
for the mists to clear
and the dawn
to evaporate
and the sun’s warmth
to release the game.

Oh avocado
you’re so hard
oh!
whatever shall I do?
needless to say
my guacamole
must now wait a day or two.

words beget numbers
which multiply on the winds
their sums to reveal
