Beloveds

Beloveds,
Hear the symphony of stars
Within our hearts ?
Crystal dreams of rainbow waterfalls and scrolls of light ?
Sounds like rushing winds and rustling waves upon the Evaporating Shores of the eternal ?
 — 

Vantage Point


From the dreamer's vantage point
I call to you by light, by night
Whispering through the cloudy realms,
dodging heights of darkness depths
Swirling over under in experience like wanted rain.

At my lovely table rests a chalice
Shared within our breast
Of beating hearts divine as
Desert flowers spear their scents to
Hypnotise the moment into time.

Memories fine as gossamer are
Webbed about my mind as honey strings,
Of you, your heart a beat,
A pebble in my body's pond
The thought of you creates a speed
A song my body sings

A call to you I feel
Your call to me
A caterpillar crawling up a tree
I feel your
Fingers playing with my hair
I turn to kiss you
You're not there

Materialize, Oh phantom of the deep !
The deepest shadow, ne'er to keep
Confined within this bowl of depths
So blind as spiders' prey !
I dream you NOW into the DAY !!
 

We Are

We are the river,
and the glimmering sunlight 
upon its surface, 
deepening the connections between 
each other and the cosmos with every breath. ♥

Dark Fire



We, the Star of Storm Angels dance now
In the dream of dreams we are as One
All the eyes that see the truth remain bare
free from shame and wanting from the lost

Truth as it is eyed from eyes of flame's spark
Seen as whispered embers from One mind
Washed as particles of light speed balmy stories
Hear the drums as beating rainbows blind!

Dragonfly of Honor, it is windswept
Spiraling among the dandelion's seeds!
Sparrow songs in crystal wombs of kindness
Daring Joy feeds clouds and dancing trees!

Wordless wonder, spinning while in silence
She dreamed a dream while watched and unaware
He waited in folds of Timeless fabrics
He handed her the Rod of freedom there

A light so bright ecstatic, she was whirling
Her mind was torn asunder with desire
her body quaked enveloping all matter
Her light was flaming torches of Dark fire!

As Time is often Not the cause of lost love
For nothing is as lost in wholeness' Songs!
Remembering joys and breathless flames a' burning
Our minds of oneness eternally enthroned!

Beloveds

Beloveds

In the eyes,
of clockwork timelessness
What hearts desire and wish for is
Is Commonplace to those
Without words.
Enjoy the company of these, 
Love's true gift for us !
Know the touch of true friends
Who give the gift of silent acceptance
Who mirror true love at every turn
Who in friendship water the seed of Solitude,
Where freedom grows !

One Heart



One night, my love eternal,
Whirling stars remembered sharing
Silken songs of we the singer, Lances High ! 

A harmony of strings strum,
We are kisses, muses faring
As our hearts beat true
The mirrors clear the view~

Two hearts as bliss
A thread of silken dandelion wishes,
Our blood knows wild the fiery wait's been long!
Our voices in the night rip bright,
The veil of trembling two-ness
Burning wildly flames of brilliant crystal nights !

Embraces deepen
Ocean's swelling salty dew rests light upon our skin~
Our tongues are flower petals in the wind~
Love, the winged, golden cup
Spills spheres of singing climbing, blinding one
To see the real as real at last!

Upon the night's full moon as light,
Our words are gazing embers' heights !
All strangeness gone, our silence is our bed~
No science failed our passion's pulsing veins!

A moment"s artful destined taste
As parted still we do lay waste
The one last veil that hangs upon the door!
Yes parted flames are our delight !
We breathe our scents, united bright !
The tetra flask spills bliss upon our Rose!

Sweet wine and bells ring hues of joy,
Your song surrounds me now in fractal lights!
Soon, my love I feel your breath
Your waiting nest is warm for me ! It's time!
Alas, my love, the phoenix rise!
We are the winged chalice empty now!
The ashes time's demise!
Transforming lightning fills it once again!
Transforming lightning fills it once again!

Thanksgiving Song


Blessed, and eternal Creator
Towards your face and fire of love !
We Reach ever inward lo', 
As formed the mountains and
Separated the waters,
Hear our Hearts' deepest thanks to your Eternal Light !

For your impenetrable understanding,
For your unfathomable kindnesses,
Strewing each of us, as Stars across the Infinite Cosmos !
As worlds in Time's memory, to and fro,
Leaching, like blood pulse,
From the Infinite Spiral
Out of the Core of darkness deep !

Faithful mirror, honest friend,
No hiding has its way with you !
As lifting curtains of Ocean waves
Cradle infinite life's tinyiest creatures,
A maze appears, and I have created it !

A breath !
A wayward message from the
Lost lover's enchanted and clouded mind !
My mirror Soul !
Who sleeps holding his breast,
A beat of heart, as mine !
Whose dreams of magestic tides, come to greet me,
To embrace my very Soul in the latter Rings of Saturn !

Oh Grace of Water streaming endless in the 

fluid creases of our lives' memories !
We give thanks for these gifts of life's sheer wisdom 

from Your heart of strength as Stillness,
And the darkest harmonies
Of Silence !

With You

When I am with you,
Our hearts ablaze with wonder,
We are a Single tree
A colony of lovers as birds nest in our Souls
To be for all,
Or be for none.
No favorites

Hummingbird

I dream of you
In day and night,
When I do, I let you go
Relaxing my Soul to hold you
This world of Love is its own story
As specks of light our hearts beat as Storms
Where glimmers of chance
Fly lightning bursts to breath life again into the weary
Every time a stream whistles
Every time a Hummingbird flutters
We kiss !

Silky Moon



Oh Song of wind's delight 
Upon my cheek !
A kiss of feathered dreams
For us to keep !
A night of laughter flowing
Through the velvet skies
I see a silky moon within your eyes !
A question sought to be the failure of surprise,
A chance at love, so fair,
The chastened wind to blow !
As chaste be new,
And always up to spark and glow.
Touch is deepest
While the knowing's yet to know
And though you mesmerize me with your many wiles
My heart's a panting cat to see your smile
Yes ! I will soar the skies to see you smile~

Epitaph for Mr. Reaper



I feel you now Mr. Reaper,
and tip my hat to you !
Sharpen that blade now, baby !
No contest, cuz we're through !

Feeling lost by the wayside, Handsome ?
No fun without the fear ?
Well count your sickles, wise ass !
No doubts to shed my tears.

Made my heart pound over nothing !
When we all know it's a scam.
Keep your stuff in your trousers, macho !
There's winsome in the glam !

Beneath the pillow screaming,
From the shredded sad clown face,
Now, you're in my passe' pocket !
You're gone, without a trace !

Feelin lonely, lover? Oh no !
Time you felt that in your spoke !
Your lady, Time, is a sad bitch!
Always waiting for a poke !

So lay down, baby, take a nap now,
Your dance with me is done !
Gotta live my life now flying !
Gonna have me some real fun !

In the darkness when my soul crept
Like a grueling Scorpion's tail,
Had me fooled for a while but its over.
Now I know that I don't fail !

Doing what I know I am here to do,
Be it glory, be it pain.
Keep your lady friend, Time, happy.
Kiss her gladly in blood's stain.

Blood's a problem for you ? Squeamish ?
Are you cowering in shrills ?
Dip your sickle sharpened fingers
Round the throat of Time's tick gills

Choke her breathless, as she's singing.
Give her one more whirling dance.
As she floats beyond the skyward
With the likes of me ? NO CHANCE !


4/10/12

Flickering



Single Flame flickering lights
Sheltered by whispered musings as 
Comes the wind !
love's eternal fire merging,
Embracing, caressing,
Ocean's ebb and flow~

Single flame rejoices
In the floating
Breeze of song
Reflections of the guiding pool
Where mingling lights belong

Singer merges as the Song
Embracing all that Is !
The dance is one of certitude
In life's eternal Bliss
A dance with her Soul's
King and tender kiss~

Song for Michael



A brightened Star Unfurls as
Songs of Deepened Mystics'
Hearts become the Ancient
Stones of Peace and War
Mercy and Silken
Woven judgements,

Pillars of the mind's climb to the
Divided Heaven's waters
The floated shores branch precision's charms
As we are each one desire,
For freedom's Masts be lifted !

Over the quiet
Guided dance of
God's delights
Serene and pondering answers to
Plundering quests
Of chance and choice

Angels sent
To shine the fullness of Time
Messages of light's hues and colors
Folded into Choirs of dreams and
Palaces of love's eyes upon the scales of death !

A feather glided
To and fro like a mother bird with
Nourishment for her young
Off the shoulders of two as one
Entwines the garden, spills no seed
Desire changed to heaven's home
Desire no longer fuel for bondage.
Oh Egypt !
Longer visions near the Temple Pillars
The Priests fraught with their deluge of power !
The Dance !!!
Where mirrored fields of flowers are
Scented with crystal tears
And fertile with the blood of battles and kindred callings.

A Fervent Prayer:
Of gratitude, my Love,
For YOU !

Visitation



As I slept, and dreamed the dream of names and built
Beliefs, a messenger from the throne of Grace, 
An Angel 
Appeared as I saw myself a child
Watching helplessly,
As the children danced a Sacrifice upon
A friend I loved
I had misjudged.and trusted them
They circled his tiny body and
Smashing them with their feet, they laughed at my Despair.
Now, from beneath a Tree of promises and the
Twinkling lure of sunken
Treasures of self delights
This messenger spoke:

Love, in its magestic, and infinite knowing,
Breathes light like a fire bellow
Onto the crystal surfaces of Situations
Where yesterday's" suffering " becomes
Pine Twigs Tea this afternoon,
A glance out the window
Of Time's cabin in the vast
Cosmos of eternal being.
As we dance, ever wafted by the breath of God,
A Birth Of resurrecting fire becomes the
Buoy in the Ocean of Unity
Dance into the fire !
Of the desires long hearted.
A dying thought of
A fool's dream and choice
Linking falsity with Compassion's drumming
In the forest stream shores,
Hear the Celebration of Chaos,
Effervescent and kind,
While truth of being fills the void of
The tomb's musky, and putrid air !

Roll away the Stone !
Of your placid indignation and ingratitude,
Seek not the paltry and withered
Spices left to dry in the Sun of Vanity !

Bare your Soul to the Open Eyes of Darkness'
Only Master and FLY above the abhorrence of distinctions
Whirling into everlasting Grace, where whispered tales of Celebration Rise in Infinite Glory !!
Drink the Cup of Chanting and
Tumbling dancing for all Holy days are One !

Welcome the Magdalene of your Soul's Chastity !
Walk together, drinking the nectar of Winter Wine in the
Throes of Passion, the mingling pool of Blessed
Eternal Love, and reap the kisses of your journey's mirror
Nestled 'neath the Wings of Light ~

Apparition



In longing for embrace and union,
Blind for a moment, to creation's seedling watered
In Eternity,
Among the shifting clouds of Morning
Scattered like ripples upon the windswept deserts
Of my thirsty Soul.
Wishing myself upon one droplet, evaporating,
A messenger arrived to comfort my heart:

"See the Folding River ?
Set in crystal stars among the
Table of the Magus ?
On one's knees, a fervent prayer for love is thought,
Love far beyond the mine and yours of bought
Affection.
Bought by created maizes of suffering and toil
For the Ocean of Wisdom's
Spoiled and shattered flowers,
Scattered behind the mirror of illusion, waiting,
Quiet as a Laviathan in the waters
Of identity.
Disguised as coral, the path is fraught with oiled stairs and Dancing demons in the nightfall of children's dreams of an Eternal Soul's desire to be !

Hold fast the voice of Inner hearing,
See only the image of the clearing !
The sheered Lamb's glistening spade !
Wear the cape of Peace in the world of tribulations,
And as voices question or ridicule, keep a prayer
Of kindness upon your lips,
As the mask of Pride and pompous ridicule and judgement
Are momentary relief only.
Keep value for your Soul,
And nothing else !
Realize !
A charmed Prince in the wake of sinking
Ships fashioned by twinkling straw covered pitch,
Led astray by riches and desire,
Soon plummets deep into the pains of fire's calling dance,
Amid the ALL who see All.

Be quickened by the quiet, the silence of a vision,
and Hold Fast.

While trippled under by waves
Of perpetual experience,
Spit the sand of lessons out and Stand !
Sword raised once again !"

Beltane Moon



On this night of the evening Spring
I burn your name upon the Moon !
And as the stars flash over and dance,
I know you hear my call !
You hear my call !

Are you meaning this fire?
Is it burning for me, from you ?
Have you etched my name
With your toes in the sand ?
Is it you, burning me ?
Are your thoughts of me a fire ?

Your kiss a Song that drenched my body.
Your arms wrapped around me like a bridge.
I can feel you holding me close as close as fire !
And as I burn, you burn with me !
As I feel this fire, you turn !
And face the night with eyes wide open,
As Love finds you out !

On this night of the evening Spring
I burn your name upon the Moon !
And as the stars flash over and dance,
I know you hear my call !
You hear my call !

Dandelion Wishes


Sent to you from a drop of Sunlight,
And riding a wavy gossamer of Moonsheen,
Are Wishes from the everland of kept promises,
And the surrounding wonders invisible to human eyes.
Love profound and without measure,
Makes each grain of sand a treasure.

Large or small, in hearts we dance
We are the melodies of whispered chances
In the rain of today's cloudy shadows,
Or tomorrow's hopeful brilliance
We are wishes in the eternity of Now
Bathed in beauty from the Ocean of Light !

And as shattering specks of desire
Crash like yesterday's ideas into the tight
Corner of experiential pride
There is emptied into the bowls of Time
An overflowing cup of Wisdom's tears
And a glow of winged delight, Intrepid
In brightness and fullness of Will
To turn ever slightly and see
A creature loveable, unloved before !

In the darkest Caverns of Shadow walk
You helped without sign, or desire, or knowing.
Dandelion Goddess, blessed friend~
O' Hekate ! Gratitude spills bright as glistening wind !

Dedicated to Greg Eynon

Daydream



Along my every dream
You are the hero, on your way to me
As the birds I see fly messages of love
to You.

No way to know for sure and it is not important
except to know for sure it was at once for us a dream~

Because of you, I learned to kneel to Heaven's eyes
And hear the call of children
Playing in the brooks
In Silence

And on my way to love all things, you sparked
some kindling made of prison brass.
I felt your song surround my Soul
and I am free~

Can I return the feelings swelling near me ?
Do you feel me feel around your breath to kiss you ?
Softened now, the desperation over.
On my way to love all things, you held the door.

In my gratitude I keep these words as nameless.
Between me and my favorite star the secret sleeps
I hear your laughter call me as I fall to dream
And know in dreams we feel our hearts for keeps.

The Breath of Angels



Can you feel the breath of angels in the moonlight ?
I travel in a spark of glowing embers 
To see you in your dreams.
Do you feel the warmth ?
Can you feel me kiss your hair and breathe the scent of you ?

There are no guarantees in life they say,
And guarantees I want none of
How boring !
You are the Star I travel to in all my Songs
You are the heart that beats for me, I know.

And what of "truth" and musings of philosophy ?
A calculated formula for love ?
There are no chances taken, it's a value
A tiny spot of brightness on a Dove~

Can you feel the longing through the Ages ?
A tightly held imagined memory ?
Of how we used to soar among the Stars in Love
With wings of passion's wildest fury ?

There are no guarantees in life they say,
And guarantees I want none of
How boring !
You are the Star I travel to in all my Songs
You are the heart that beats for me, I know.

Celtic Tapestry



Once Joined, divided now,
Our often thought of thoughts of 
Who we each may be 
Are glistening light upon a drop of dew.
A brightened Lamp of starlit ventures
And Songs of Violet cymbals
Dip into streams of pomegranate colored veins
As blood within the crafted vest
One wears in Marriage,
To languish restfully as clouds
Against a canvas of Rainbowed
Lakes
And chirping birds poised to mate.
A crevice opens in the
Sphere of time we dance in,
And we meet, freely wondrous as children
Laughing from the deepest, carved out
Fountains of Light.
The dance swirls and weaves a tapestry
That rests upon the shoulders
Of history and the chasm of aloneness
Becomes a comfort.
As quiet stillness holds the nest of Spring
In Songs of Reunion

A Circle Song


Because of you, 
The coals of my Soul burn hotter.
Brighter than the whispering kisses
Lightly breathing on my back.
Tighter than the strongest
Holding of me to your chest.

Skin to Skin
A disappearing
Angel's dance upon my breasts
Your kisses, are Songs for burning,
Burning All of me.

Thanks to you, my Soul
Sings longer melodies
And you are gone.
Gone to me,
Took flight to fantasy,
A burn that set me free.

I feel you now, you peer at me
I feel your gaze, a heated rush
Becomes my bed, and you are gone
I long to sleep, to feel your dancing waters

Find me,
We'll walk the paths of
Caverns deep in darkness
Our lantern's muted low
To hide the glare from staring shadows
Along our Souls' walls of fire~

I taste your kiss, and see your eyes
Ablaze for me, you magnetize
A charmer versed in melody,
I am the serpent,
And rise for you.

Thanks to you,
My Soul sings longer melodies
And you are gone
Gone to me,
Took flight to fantasy,
A burn that set me free.

We Are a Phoenix


We Are a Phoenix

Held in your arms,
I am a Dove
Who quivers long
From songs of love.
You'd sent your arrow
Swift and deep
To find me quietly asleep.
You kissed my Soul
You sang for me
A crystal rainbow's
Harmony
Awakened now,
No longer dead
I am a Raven near your bed
And crawl aside you
As you dream
To kiss you sweetly
As your heart beams
We walk the lights
And streaming nights
Aflame with passion
Beyond delights
A gift in time
Of Joys sublime
Our bodies won
By love's decision
Our dance a charm
Of Heat's precision
Behold the night
And morning's light
We are a Phoenix
And we burn bright.
Our song is flames
And music's rain
Entwines our Souls
Cleanses all stain.
Sweet Fountain Dance
Our Soul's enchant
The very breathless
Drums who glance
Beyond the Moonlight
Paling low
Our love so bright
Our heart one river
Flow.

Underwater Kiss


Underwater Kiss

Oh how you came and left me trembling,
A star that shined, but for a song,
A kindness memory, now mending,
What I once thought was all our own.

But time is well inducing visions
Of all desire's tapestry
We're here and swimming in this ocean
Of life's imagined revelry

And now, these thoughts of you
Are never few beside me
You surround me, as feathers fall~

Each thought
I send in love
as tender
Each a mender
Of some false hope

Beneath the pages dusty fragrance
So unprepared for love with you
There will be time again forever
To build a bridge, and start anew


Oh how you came and left me trembling
A star that shined, but for a song
A kindness memory, now mending
What I once thought was all our own

The Falling Rain




Was it a dream, an apparition ?
The way you spoke, and made me feel ?
Or is your stand my own contrition ?
To toughen up my bleeding knees?

Beneath the trees in earlly Springtime
You pledged your heart, as beating true
You sang a song of love's redemption
So sure was I, the truth was you.

And now my Soul is longing for you
It is the longing bringing light
Upon my trappings and misgivings
And how my thoughts of love take flight

These tears are falling rain of whispers
Upon the meadows flowered green
They wash the dusty earth and shimmer
Upon the roses of my dreams.

A call goes out to you, my darling
It doesn't matter if you speak
True love's the mirror glitter falling
To bare the places where I'm weak

A single kiss, a sweet embracing
Of who I have become to be
Your artful acts of love replacing
The who I never was to me

Your caring heart was true for moments
Till shadows fell and brought the fear.
And now, a call to you in heaven
A  tone of lights to bring you here

These tears are falling rain of whispers
Upon the meadows flowered green
They wash the dusty earth and shimmer
Upon the roses of my dreams.

Stones

Creation's Pearl of Solitude,
A brightened Star Unfurls as
Songs of Deepened Mystics'
Hearts become the Ancient
Stones of Peace and War
Mercy and Silken mirrored judgements,

Pillars of the mind's climb to the
Divided Heaven's waters
The floated shores branch precision's charms
As we are each one desire,
For freedom's Masts be lifted

Over the quiet
Guided dance of
God's delights
Serene and pondering answers to
plundering quests
of chance and choice

Angels sent
to shine the fullness of Time
Messages of light's hues and colors
Folded into Choirs of dreams and
Palaces of love's eyes upon the scales of death !

A feather glided
to and fro like a mother bird with
Nourishment for her young
Off the shoulders of two as one
Entwines the garden, spills no seed
Desire changed to heaven's home
Desire no longer fuel for bondage.
Oh Egypt !
Longer visions near the Temple Pillars
The Priests fraught with their wants of what ?
The Dance !!!
Where mirrored fields of flowers are scented with crystal tears
And fertile with the blood of battles and kindred callings.
One Prayer:
Of gratitude, my Love, For YOU !

On a Cool Evening


On a cool evening
As the stars of Heaven spin in Slow Motion
Within your clear blue Ocean eyes
You hypnotized me with your rapier wit
And charming, jeweled words beneath the moon.
A minstrel floating tween the trees
You sang a tune to open  gates of Castles strong.
My fate sealed
I set my heart to evade you
As best be, like a Gazelle
Chased by a predator
Running
Running
Then you caught me.
My heart in your sling,
I was a flower, picked in June
All reason lost, no need for walls,
The river wailed against our bodies
Our kiss, a plunge into the Ocean's salt.
Our thirst ignited by a spark of star glow
Across the skies
Your eyes a glowing circle
A spinning river of fire through
The labyrinths of Soul
I asked a question of the nearest twig and
Waited in patience, while ants strolled over my toes
Lightning lifted the gates open wide and in came
The river, the Holy river,
Warmed by crystal pebbles from a flume, it
Washes over us as we dream.
You are my eyes
You are my heart

4/15/12

My Pyre


Beneath the cradled clouds of Sprintime
I was a schoolgirl neath your charms
A trembling bird upon the new nest
About to fly from mother's arms

You drew a string to pull the Moon down
My breathless heart awaited fire !
Within the tempered glass that shattered
A seed of love, you were my pyre

The rivers flow, the oceans swell
my pores, my blood, the story tells
Of endless love found in a dream
Of longing streams that ever gleam

Now time as hell awaits we tell
The secrets of the heart's desire
You'll carry all the light we need
Our hearts as one, our souls a fire

11/21/12

I Hear The Call

I hear the call
In depths of all that wasn't here
or dear in sounds of hard belief's
you
planted deep
a knowing we were headed to be
sleepily steeping like a teabag
in a cup,
no luck
the timing off
you flew
you said your knowing knew
my cuff was a cry from insecurity
and you
a fearsome brew
you spoke a song
from memory long
how are we though
as a timeless
show,
a fleeting thought ?


The destiny that wiggles here
from fear to pull the trigger
steering out from all
that smothers falling tears
from stinging fears and
memories agreed to see
their ghostly shadows
mending freedom
if they be
dissolved as dusty songs
upon moth wings or
a dusty pages so old
belonging
anew a blue house
hallway in a view of you
you came to see me
as she slept
she fairly wept
not knowing yet
you can't forget her heart for
you knew her by
the beat
and her lightly colored feet of clay
not seeing yet
your heart was hers
you can't forget
not like a love of servitude
one strung with beads of obligation
But, a love of joy to share that would
create a new a me and you

science heeds like millions bleed
a promise of futility
illusion loves to feel itself within
the selves we know best
before we came
we felt the flame
agreed to come here,
all the same.

Promises

Beloved,as all is left to be an ember flying
Into the center of breathless kisses longed for
and throwing skin dips dancing, all is lost
but found where heaven's cost
to mindless flowers on the hills
of where your heart meets mine
we missed the window of star shine
The full blown hourglass
experience this time around, and next time
will you remember me across the screens of digits
and lights and letters and songs ?
Your life cut down, all  dreams
of kisses dashed to dust and empty lust of no
reprieve. So long to you, you're gone to me.

Leaves that Fall

The leaves that sway
the one
the all
from taller fall
a swing sublime to see
a thought of we.
Fall as one
a gathering drum
a frame of time as looms of sky so blue,
I think of you
The green as bright through leaves
Peek thru
My heart with you
A dash of wind
A scent of fire
where hearts can mend
Our time as one, become
Become the Sun beneath the climbing lights
And bridges wild
each thought a child
of love to know a story's glow
Who knew at then how we were
when
there was no me and you.
To feel the drift of dreams
to you
A feeling skin of heat so true
the feathered flower
a red glass rose
Come chose the darkness
to climb back to us
as one.

No Guarantees

Can you feel the breath of angels
in the moonlight ?
I travel in a spark of glowing embers
To see you in your dreams
Do you feel the warmth ?
Can you feel me kiss your hair and
breathe the scent of you ?

There are no guarantees in life they say,
And guarantees I want none of
How boring
You are the Star I travel to in all my Songs
You are the heart that beats for me, I know.

And what of "truth" and musings of philosophy ?
A calculated formula for love ?
There are no chances taken, it's a value
A tiny spot of brightness on a Dove

Can you feel the longing through the Ages ?
A tightly held imagined memory ?
Of how we used to soar among the Stars in Love
With wings of passion's wildest fury ?


There are no guarantees in life they say,
And guarantees I want none of
How boring
You are the Star I travel to in all my Songs
You are the heart that beats for me, I know.

He Thinks of Me

Beneath my bed a treasure's
head flew in my window
on moon beam breath
it placed its light against
the post and swallowed
all that it
thought it lost
a dream of sheen and brilliant jewels
beneath a pillow filled with fools
was hot as flight
as firelight
you led me with a staff of light
I left behind the skin and knew to follow you
to follow you
for you were me
and we were who we were as
one

Your arms of light surrounded me
a kiss so bright a melt of fleeting snow
a light
my heart is tight
a drum for you
You sang and
clipped my wings for you
so all could see in dreams
in dreams
where thoughts of green
are imminent
as honey kisses in my tent.
Your arms, a touch like
rivers, have the start at
my toes
in all of mellow rain
my heart in pain
my heart again
in dreams in dreams we're here as fauns
alone it seems then it is gone
sweet memory
of all it be
return to me
return to we

the mellow night was strewn
with tools
left by the worker
overnight
to glean some billows
of fire light
back from a tryst
his empty fist
was flown to bits beneath
his wrist
 as chards
for choices meant
as some
would think
one foolish
clowns that run
no paint upon
a landscape's face
no drink before a long horn race
is run by one who wears the hat of
lowered masts and knowing that,
he turned to gaze upon his watch
and found a trace of moon
to block the Sun
And with his breath
a plum fell off his rippled tree
And as he bites,
upon his knee
he thinks of me.




It Was You



In the darkest dream of evening song
Your heart cried out to me
A flow of tears from evermore
A kindness of deep leaves
Upon the leaves we fell in love
We shared our songs of dreams
A tale of heart beyond swift wings
That flutters till the dripping strings
Upon the strings, we fell in love
and shared the beating drums of stones
we flowed by night, by candlelight
Our tears of joy in immanent flight
Upon the flight we fell in love
Our kiss a breath of heaven's dove
We struggled in our dreams to sleep
We held our weeping in our keep
Upon our dreams, we fell in love
And heaven's caves of climbing vines
Were all about our dancing souls
As time became a slaughtering troll
Upon time's steps, we fell in love
And naked left our shadows low
To sweep the dust of fired lust
And wisp our lips for passion's kiss
Upon our kiss we fell in love
And all the dreams we weave are of
The snappy streams of destiny
And glittering flings of harmony
Upon our kiss, I lay my soul
To breathe the breath imagined whole
I hold you deep and stroke your hair
I hold you deep and stroke your hair
