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

Colloidal Queen

We are as dust, 
as light filled
emptiness, accorded matter for

a sense of time.
And
As spirits soar upon a breeze of
Dire lies meant for a tease,
A quickened heart is soon released
As beating embers of the beast within.
Awakened truth, as floating fire,
When lightning bolts entwine desire,
And passion bells ignite the pyre of good bye.
The words are judges as time the maker,
And language muds the truth
Of ever lasting hearts in endless
Oceans of salty skin and changing
Shadows of the night.
Then, as the moment folds
Like roses into who
We thought we'd been,
We're freed
As long flows time asunder
And hearts of light
Spring songs that ring
The bells of passion's
Fires of wind and wooded lures !
As if enchanted honey
Dropping through our kisses, thin.

The Shadow's Rose

There was a time~ 
Was it whim's chance at fame ?
A slight flirtation 
Between the 
Falling leaves and the sprouts of dandelions.
As butterflies played drums for the
Distant Stars to see luminous Ocean depths,
A call from darkness sang a melody for me !

He played a flute as snakes rose up and crystals chimed !
He blew a whisper through the hollowed reed of time.
As sprinkled pines flared high to
Ride the twinkling wind,
He gasped a sigh
And kissed me deep within.

A mirrored hallway, music lightning in the dream
Is lit with darkness shrouded heavy with death's bliss
I ride the quiet shimmer wings upon the drops of dew
His shadow falls so far there is no room for you

Henceforth a battle cry, my heart ablaze with brass !
I hold the rose, blood red, and crush it thin as glass !
I blast the shadow far to heaven with one blow
And feel the chains of love fall softly in the snow.

My Lullaby

Can you hear my heart beat across your dreams ?

Do you think of me and how we wait so long ?

As I live and breathe, you are a brand upon my soul

Your kiss, a seal upon my being, your Song

my lullaby

I'll never find another you, and it cuts 

Like a blade sharpened for carving, it bleeds me to tears

to think our dance was only an imagination's glance

At eternity's waitng for the gift of falling years.

Long nights  loving and tossing in our arms,

Your words a lamp for all the pain was gone.

Our tenderness in flames ignited passion's Pyre.

I can only dream of now, as I am left alone.

O lonely nights, the prayer of you upon my lips,

I rush to sleep to be with you again

And in my mind and dreams we hold eachother tight.

We forge forever a fire burning bright.

I see your picture, a smile of ocean blue,

And long like thirsty winds the strength and touch of you

On quiet night, I gaze and close my eyes,

And wish your image, I could materialize

I send this prayer of love, a passion strong as Stars !

It's light like blinding bursts of pulsing clahes bright !

These thoughts of love's desire flowing through my veins,

A wish your kiss again would drench my soul like rain.

I call upon the wind to flow my love to you.

And fire bright to burn all obstacles in view.

I tread the earth with feet bare to the dampened soil,

And lift my Sword of heart to find you once again !
