Fleeting Moments

Remembering  that  beauty  hovers in time,
and  is made of  fleeting moments...

I have kept high moments,
They go round and round inside of me.






 

 

 

Charlie

Love  runs deep...  when it's in  the veins,
a little dna,  goes  a  long  way.

Whisper  lies and  hold  me  tight,
don't  stay  with  me,   another  night.

Isn't  it  odd,  how  softness
and love fades away,

When jealousy and pride get  in  the  way.

 

 

 



 

 

Michael

We lay on a hilltop,
on our bellies, beneath the moon,
near  the heart  of  life...




 

 

 

Ted

Intertwined,
I think of all  the words I  love to hear,

and try  to  find words white enough,
for such shining.


 

 



 

 

 

Gary

There is nothing to save,
now all is lost,
but a tiny core of stillness, in the heart.


 

 


 

 

 

Sun

Waiting in rain-leaf  whispers,
Waiting in dry stalks of noon,

Wanting in a music of  wind-breaths.

Like a  book  read over and over again...
The sun  performs so often.





 

 

Darkness

Chosen silence, come sing to me,
leaving  my doors and  windows wide,

All  within, is  dark  tonight,
in  my windows, there is  no  light.

 

 

 

Leaving a Lover

The sun of my soul  is  setting.
I am  lost  in a  distant  song.

Remembering passionate cries in the night,
trying to undo, what has become so wrong.


 

 

 

Lonely  Woman

In  the silken embrace, of  the misty night,
a  lonely  woman, disguised as  water...

flows beyond her wildest dreams,
and for a moment, she feels infinity.

until  tiny  raindrops, stop the flow,
and she becomes a stream.

 

 

Native of the Earth

I  make light of all devils,
child of  the wild,  am I.

Born of  the Earth and  the Sea,
there  is  no  tender, warmth for me.

 

 

 

 

Another Year

My spirit trips and confines me,
half with loathing, half with a strange love,
to quell the dark  passions of my  blood.

But  the year has lost  it's  meaning...
in  intellectual  circles  I  lost both,
love  and  loathing.

It's  not  enough... this  wall  of  wisdom.
another summer  took  to  the  fields.
 

 

 

Lost

Dark  desires have  claimed  me,
worshipping  the sea...

I  am  touched, by  the silver  of  moonlight,
and  music  fills  the  starry  night.

I am  lost  to the songs of  the  bearded  men,
and  the sound  of  their  laughter...

Pirates of  love, sailing away,
the morning after.
