Elevator Shaft Eternal
Elevator Shaft
The eternal shaft
Going down to the grave
Some enter with whole bodies
Some are cremation ashes
I don't like these thoughts
Opening up fear and depression
How long do I have to
Stay in the dark?
But it says in
Psalm 91: 5 (KJV)
"Thou shalt not be afraid,
for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that
flieth by day"
So I am no longer afraid
Jesus got my back
Down the
Eternal Elevator Shaft
Of Peace & Joy
I can hear the
Birds singing
Summer day
on...
The eternal shaft
Going down to the grave
Some enter with whole bodies
Some are cremation ashes
I don't like these thoughts
Opening up fear and depression
How long do I have to
Stay in the dark?
But it says in

"Thou shalt not be afraid,
for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that
flieth by day"
So I am no longer afraid
Jesus got my back

cradle.

hidden, deep
ahh,

wafts thoughts

UNIDENTIFIED ASSAILANT
Have you been to the great plains
To see the cracked earth
That somehow still
Pops out little flowers?
Those black cloud
Blink-and-you-miss-it
Summer storms are like
A hit and run.

Cordoned Off
I think I get too caught up on blooms and blossoms
Flowers come in so many colors;
We were out in the meadow,
I kept getting snagged by the little burrs
My sister pointed out a tall red in the grass:
It's a poppy
Mature petals swirled around a black head
And the bees were out,
The sun was particularly gentle,
There was no wind,
I love it when it's like this.
The meadow is sectioned;
There is the gravel road that goes through the tall grasses and the purple flowers
It goes by the gazebo
Wood shingled roof and stone base;...

Poppies
Poppies
So serene
So prepossessing
Petals shaped like serum
Scattered so neatly, like a perfectly made bed
Cushioning the landscape with their treacherous tranquility
Poppies
A meadow of mellow rubies
Laced in lingerings of lavender
Afield from nirvana, but safe and sound from the gates of hell
A place to meet again, beyond the moon and rain
Where eyes stay closed, shielded from the bright blue sky
And when the wistful folk have breathed their...

The Caged Flower
perfumed scents
of ancient wars
strengthened behind
wrought iron bars
tortured petals
labored breathing
thorns of angst
chest is heaving
too much sun,
burns pride to ash
stay in darkness,
rots all it's flesh
toxic fumes
seeps through to soil
sanguine hopes
of growth they toil
stranger's hands ...

conscious gardening ( tanka )
a hundred poems sprout
from the garden of my head
thousands from my heart
which field I should harvest first
remains unresolved tonight

Fine and Dande'
Hurled into the air
The dandelion spores feel the wind micro currents,
Tickled into the sunshine
Meandering into the paradise they have been set and--
Lands right about a block from its origin, if it's lucky.
Dandelions are 'weeds' for whatever reason.
Make a wish, blow on the fluff
It's enough to propel the little feathers
And to them it's a thousand mile journey
And they are content with any distance at all
Landing into a new era
A couple feet from their ancestors

Spellbound! Haw Must Go!
Spellbound! I must go around spun,
sell one stem of buds, then burn
what's done on the bed; turn,
bend, send, then do again.
If it weren't for them,
the haw, the bell,
or hope; no, I'd
not hem, nor
would I...
mope.

Water Colors -
this season, bright beautiful lights
caressing the minutes that waltz
across the breathless days,
colors mingle in bright flames
softening, like leaves
still bright in their wisdom,
fall flowers transcending
thoughts, that moment each
choose to blush in deniable
situations, days sleepy under
watchful treasures and
water color dreams, bleeding
into each moment of scenery
mixed tenderly, reflections dance,
radiance and peace, fused,
unique to wondering eyes unveiling, ...

a lifelong gasp in bloom.
i lay
coveted
and covered
euphoric heart's desire-
'O herculean desire
that steals my breath;
i gladly gasp in bloom
my whole world
of these always and forever dreams
—how I gleam
to transcend and glow
with pounding chest;
a scented crest
tears undying, flow

My love, lavender
