Castle
Misty fog sinking low
Above a watery meadow
Then terraced stone, gravel path
Old chestnut tree split in half
A buzzard swoops in wooded grove
Badger holes where they dug and rove
Wild garlic then autumn leaves
Summer shrubs and flowering trees
Cow parsley tall in the shade
Watching the sun start to fade
Ducking through the arched tunnel
Listen to birdsong sound so subtle
Summer fountain rainbow spray
Flower heads in wind that sway
Lead Glass reflecting strange shapes
Of past footsteps leading to fate
In...

Winter’s Thaw
frigid
night air
pierces
new holes
through
my heart
it’s the start
of spring
birds sing
last year’s
crisp leaves
graze the
frozen ground
with a sound
like dry brush
strokes
that evoke
all the senses
wind is reckless
a painted canvas
of neon sunset
hangs overhead
chitter chatter
can be heard
from chipmunks’
holes
stretch my toes
bugs buzz
around
our home
but it’s still
a bit too cold
for flowers’
arrival
their survival ...

Anamnesis
And they lived happily ever after
An expanse of laughter lines
Warmly consoled their souls
Until the twilight of old age
Rested itself in their home
Bones no longer clattered
Night came, stars shown
And dawn found them
Huddled together
In everlasting
Peace
Birds sang in grief
At the sunrise
As our spirits drifted
Toward the skies
Wide eyed as one
Together, we’re never alone
In our lover’s arms and
In each other’s hearts
We are never lost
Or forgotten
We are...
An expanse of laughter lines
Warmly consoled their souls
Until the twilight of old age
Rested itself in their home
Bones no longer clattered
Night came, stars shown
And dawn found them
Huddled together
In everlasting
Peace
Birds sang in grief
At the sunrise
As our spirits drifted
Toward the skies
Wide eyed as one
Together, we’re never alone
In our lover’s arms and
In each other’s hearts
We are never lost
Or forgotten
We are...

Prairie Paradise
The wind blows fierce, on the plains I see
I walk the prairie alone, free
Where proud and plentiful buffalo roam
This place is mine, my forever home
Where palaminos ride, beneath the sky
And eagles soar where rivers cry
When thunder roars and rolls
As I gallop over hills and knolls
Liquid diamonds plumet from the air
And soak the green clad ground so fair
Overhead the golden dawn shows bright
What joy I see, a wonderus sight
Here I stand in a glimmering sea of wheat
Whispers over...
I walk the prairie alone, free
Where proud and plentiful buffalo roam
This place is mine, my forever home
Where palaminos ride, beneath the sky
And eagles soar where rivers cry
When thunder roars and rolls
As I gallop over hills and knolls
Liquid diamonds plumet from the air
And soak the green clad ground so fair
Overhead the golden dawn shows bright
What joy I see, a wonderus sight
Here I stand in a glimmering sea of wheat
Whispers over...

Cab, Or Cad, Ye Gads!
Oh taxi
My taxi
Burning bright
In the middle
Of a cold, dark night
Where the hell
Were you?
Because
You weren't
Where you said
You were
I know this
As i was stood outside
In the middle
Of a cold dark night
At the address i gave you
That you claimed
You were at
So your lies fall flat
I saw a taxi
That wasn't there
It wasn't there
Again today
How i wish
It had come my way

Animals
I live in the suburbs
Row upon row of similar houses
Running on and on
With nothing standing out
But there's a little park filled with trees
Close by my little slice of suburbia
And every now and then we'll see some of the wildlife
That somehow manages to flourish
So far from where they should be
I've seen deer running down the road
And 3 foxes on my front yard
Probably hoping to find a neighbour's cat
And make it a meal
Even an ugly little opossum
That wasn't afraid of my clapping
When he climbed up on my porch ...

Sorya’s Oath
I, Sorya, child of the Mist phoenix, accept the pledge of my bloodline. I will defend my home and destroy and who would seek to destroy it. I will bring hope and healing where it is needed. I will defend the innocent and guard against those who would seek to break the natural cycle that keeps all in the balance. My fire is for my home and its people. I shall not seek to use it for personal gain or for the gain of those who would seek to misuse it. I am Sorya Faylayre and my word is my bond

Judith's Place
On a brisk September evening many years ago, I remember visiting my grandmother's house on the island. Fall seemed to be peeking around the trees. The once forest green door on her front porch was chipping paint, revealing an orange rust. As I opened the door to enter, the worn-out hinges moaned a crackling tale. I felt I was witnessing the history of how many visitors, guests, and loved ones had walked through that very door.
I could hear a woman humming to a Willie Nelson song, the sound sweeping in on the fresh evening breeze. The recognizable smell of spices and herbs welcomed...

A Place Like Home
With a piece of paradise between
My fingertips I am finally home.
The place that kept me warm when
There was no warmth in the bright
City lights. The place where a Queen
And peasant are welcome to roam.
A place where the women and men
Are created equal. But as the night
Fades away and turns into the early
Morning daylight I face the harsh
Reality that I cannot always get
What I want. Paradise sounds easy
On the tip of the tongue as the pearly
Gates open up and I stand in the marsh
All alone as home is never easy to...
My fingertips I am finally home.
The place that kept me warm when
There was no warmth in the bright
City lights. The place where a Queen
And peasant are welcome to roam.
A place where the women and men
Are created equal. But as the night
Fades away and turns into the early
Morning daylight I face the harsh
Reality that I cannot always get
What I want. Paradise sounds easy

Gates open up and I stand in the marsh
All alone as home is never easy to...

Ceilings and walls of tenuous sleep
Blankets are a thin
Membrane
Against the noise
And the chaos
And the cold
Yesterday, sunlight and commercial
Music at the mall, where
Those of disposable means are
Casually tossing coins,
To the metallic yap of a
Plastic toy dog
I see them,
Groomed and adorned,
Having learned and strove
Through the capitalist systemic
Calculus
Of have and wont and woe,
I admire them
That perseverance,
That sharp toothed priority
Of self and those whose well...
