Among Green

Summer winds as the leaves' minuet
in silk stockings among the green
of gentle glades and trees
yawning memories of days gone by  
lullabies when you were but three

In Stone

In dreams of kisses and memories
now fossilized in stone and ivy
listening to the silence crying
a tear unseen drowning, longing    
where secrets sleep fossilized
in stone

Haunted Memories

Raindrop shadows brocade melodies
memories of soothing ocean tides
in melancholy serendipity yawning
sweet pedigree of lemongrass
in nature's hammock of haunted winds
and long legs whispering love

A Slow Demise

Like old photographs,
memories fade over time
Part of me has died

slip slide
once felt love

then numb
with sometimes salty tears


missed

When you are crying in the rain

to what end

true tears of joy

or streams of sorrow

moments all washed way

Eclipsed by Time - Tanka

Falling leaves whisper,
echoes of what once had been,
a fleeting embrace,
life’s sorrow, infinite tides,
softly drown the light of youth

Perspective

It’s not
Selective memory
Or rose-colored glasses

It’s perspective
Empathy & understanding
It’s trying to see
beyond myself

It’s “I still love you”
& “I always will”
It’s friendship true
And “can you forgive me still?”

sweet dreams (revisited)

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2009

when i cannot sleep
i dream of you
often lately in the deep night
i dream of you
and am soothed
in so many ways
so many days
many dreams
yet only dreams
alone
lonely

sweet dreams

Time

As my mind traces back
voices from within
tell me to soul search
a personal energy
that resonates
changing my perspective
as multiple beings
alert me when my time will expire
