The dark castle in the deep forest
A princess is resurrected
During the second birth
The last battle of possession
Cosmic keys to the creation of earth.

Global Warming Warning 2
The east coast gets those devastating hurricanes
While the west coast goes into long drawn-out drought
I just saw a video of Canadians getting tornadoes
While climate change deniers are still spreading doubt
A U.S. Senator escapes the freezing temperature
While people suffered and died in the terrible cold
Whether it’s Fahrenheit or Celsius for the wealthiest
The weather is always fine in their palaces of gold
Now an unbearable heat is sweeping across the land
Diligent and responsible water conservation is a must
Why won’t...

groan
inside me groan
sigh to touch the sky
the sheer brilliance of nature...rapture
the forests bring me back to my roots
on a mossy bed I rise

the forests bring me back to my roots

A Walk To Mt. Equinox
Tall joyous giants stalk the autumn blue sky.
In the solitude of their gargantuan grace.
Gaze up, with your head flung back
Yes! Happy as a lark.
For a moment the plagues of the heart
just fall apart.
Bark rises on a voyage to the sun.
Beyond the crowd of sun seized leaves.
Intent to stun.
The terminal green still harmonizes with the eye.
It all feels so peaceful, leaves electric
before their fate to die.
High above lemon yellows and mulberry red,
canopy the path ahead.
And don't forget, the rickety trees ...

what (they call improvement)
rows
and rows
of established
trees
cut down,
animals displaced
from
their homes,
the land
stripped,
life giving
waters drained,
all for
the sake
and benefit
for mankind,
and this
is what
they call
improvement.

Dark Forest Lurking
I’m watching
Lurking
Behind that tree
Do you see me ?
LumberJack
Ripped flannel shirt
Whiskey breath
Protrusion in pants
Sinister
Waiting
Hardwood
He surprised her from behind
Dirty calloused hand over mouth
Nicotine stench
She should have been afraid
But wasn't
He reached lewdly under her soft sweater
Fondling her breasts
Toying with her nipples
His breath hot on her neck
Misty forest odors
She felt damp between the legs ..

Autumn VII: Trifold
1.
Late autumn and winter
bring subtle charms
with Yuletide work—
such as crafting aphrodisiacal recipes
for holiday gifts and soirées
Plenty of rain, festooning
and burning of leaves
are a homecoming of sorts
—the bouquet signaling an end
to laborious harvesting—
before bedecking a new beginning
—we do what needs be done
while awaiting light’s return
2.
Rooted firmly in the forest
is but another laboring colony
—one predating humans—
deciduous Beings contemplating

unexplored paths
there's something about backroads
backwoods
hidden trails
they call to the nomad in me
inspiring wanderlust
always chasing the latest mystery
you can only see so much on the main
you have to step off
meander down overgrown lanes
ducking through tangles
those low hanging branches
to crest the next rise
find a surprise
stumble upon one of nature's best kept secrets
she's full of them
blowing your mind & widening eyes
sometimes it's just a detour
not leading anywhere
but if I don't go
how will I...

Sky...Havoc!
Slowly, and lowly, from the haze,
Waxes the wildfire moon
As an apparition too soon
Hinting at apocalyptic days
In a feverish twilit cloak
Of boldly emerging gibbous gold;
That angel hue so oft foretold
To coincide with death and smoke
And final Armageddon flame...
Bright now that the setting sun
Seizes his day and calls it done
When moonbeams and fire tint the same
In the tragic spectral harmony
Of moonlit air...and burning tree!
Waxes the wildfire moon
As an apparition too soon
Hinting at apocalyptic days
In a feverish twilit cloak
Of boldly emerging gibbous gold;
That angel hue so oft foretold
To coincide with death and smoke
And final Armageddon flame...
Bright now that the setting sun
Seizes his day and calls it done
When moonbeams and fire tint the same
In the tragic spectral harmony
Of moonlit air...and burning tree!

Nature Walk
Unfrozen woods
adventure awaits
excitability on overload
walking stick
not a northface haste
welcoming this muddy bliss
no towers of cells
life runs free
beautiful pureness
deep within her heart
she shines, yet dies
this place full of wonder
these magnificent trees
with and without
any leaves
adventure awaits
excitability on overload

not a northface haste
welcoming this muddy bliss
no towers of cells
life runs free
beautiful pureness

she shines, yet dies

with and without

yes, I can see the forest for the trees. ~ (a haiku)
canopied so lush
ageless tendrils whisper
sustaining us all
ageless tendrils whisper
sustaining us all

Angel Eyes (A Witche's Tale)
and so
the man came and told
the frightened woman
of her husband's demise
that soldier
a true man of honor
who called her angel eyes
then when he left
she grabbed a
white cloth
dampened it
a little
wiped her eyes with it
and cried out
to no one
she grabbed up
the string of beads
where they lay in
the wooden box
she kept it in
along with...
