accomplice
suspect strolls by night
by night
Moon drains
bees search
hopscotch
Earth's face
unoccupied
bottles set aside
the welcome bed
rousing at dusk
you respire
a milk & honey beam
in cotton
the thief of dairy & pollen
brims over
brims over the crimes
of light creamed in
glass
by night
Moon drains
bees search
hopscotch
Earth's face
unoccupied
bottles set aside
the welcome bed
rousing at dusk
you respire
a milk & honey beam
in cotton
the thief of dairy & pollen
brims over
brims over the crimes
of light creamed in
glass

& now the waxing sky.....
and now the waxing sky
and now the bluely bright
cool of morning runs thru
darkened avenues of night
like the wings of a butterfly
rising out of all that grief
plain and bare, all comes to it
but no strife is endless
even death is a transmutation
initiating new horizons
floating out of itself, oh beautiful,
oh beautiful like a fountain
where blind eyes blink, re-seeing,
(re-seeing to remind)
...

space touring
We know it was a great fanfare
when Elon Musk sent a Tesla car towards the stars
with a fully loaded battery
When the hoopla died down and eyes were diverted
to the everyday problems on earth
The car started by itself and began visiting planet Saturn
and little Pluto and other planets of interest
When the time is right and astronauts, say Mars and walking
down the ladder, seeing tire marks will exclaim
Truly, ancient man was here.

from above
she, high in the sky
wondrous fulfillment of light
beaming with rays
casting,
elevating,
your shadow before me.
mystic clouds, floating
channeling their energy
weeping down as tears
along the velvety lined path.
gentle is the touch,
repetitive strokes...
as if lightning
raising the hair upon the unexpecting.
teetering,
covered with a chill...
fullness and yet erect
the sheet caresses the tip.
sweetness moans within the dream.
her shine illuminates our worlds,
in unison.

The Magic Rhyme
The faires spirit of the wise woman dance on to bring the night, casting a softly spoken spell bringing eternity to them as they dance around the heath, forrest and the bog.
The magic rhythm echoes into the universe carried on whispers of secret rhyme into the cosmos, suddenly a great spark ignites an the ancient tale unfolds, the cosmic force awaken.
Rays unimaginable burst through darkness like golden thread, brilliance and beauty cast as light is softly spread, the midnight lakes and streams of the forest shine with crystal frost, while luna...

To watch the Clear Night Sky
To watch the clear night skies, with what words and with which poem or brush can I at last shine a light on the mind of the searcher,
With what can I explicitly explain the divinity and sacredness of the stars of which cannot be seen, knowing with a depth of certainty they are there without changing the meaning,
How do I express myself when magnificence is just something wrapped in mediocrity in fair comparison, when searching to expose the truth and beauty of nature in the things that I cannot explain,
To try and explain a clear night sky, is...

Moonlight
one step outside and wonder begins
the moon rises full streetlights contend
too cold to abide the night the wind
they push they pull more wonder descends

too cold to abide the night the wind

Whistling In The Woods
Oh, don’t go whistlin’ in the woods at night
When the trees stand still and the moon ain’t right
There’s a voice that calls, but it ain’t your kin
And the thing that answers don’t wear no skin
What’s that draggin’, heavy on the leaves?
A sound like chains, or broken eaves?
It hums my tune, it mocks my name
But its voice is wrong—it ain’t the same
Yonder yellow grin in the shadow’s maw
Eyes too wide, a gaping flaw
It stares me down, it don’t draw near
Just waits and grins, feeds on my fear
Oh, run, my child, but...
When the trees stand still and the moon ain’t right
There’s a voice that calls, but it ain’t your kin
And the thing that answers don’t wear no skin
What’s that draggin’, heavy on the leaves?

It hums my tune, it mocks my name
But its voice is wrong—it ain’t the same
Yonder yellow grin in the shadow’s maw
Eyes too wide, a gaping flaw
It stares me down, it don’t draw near
Just waits and grins, feeds on my fear
Oh, run, my child, but...

the Tao
Horton got it right
We are a mere speck
Of a speck
Of a speck, et cetera
We can’t begin to fathom
Why we can’t fathom
What we can’t fathom
A million miles up there
Does not even begin
To touch the surface
Of the surface
The sun and the moon
Barely (in)significant
In its course
No comparison, immeasurable
There are no boundary lines
It does not break nor bend
There is no pre-emptive design
There is no end
You have no answers
There is no end
We are a mere speck
Of a speck
Of a speck, et cetera
We can’t begin to fathom
Why we can’t fathom
What we can’t fathom
A million miles up there
Does not even begin
To touch the surface
Of the surface
The sun and the moon
Barely (in)significant
In its course
No comparison, immeasurable
There are no boundary lines
It does not break nor bend
There is no pre-emptive design
There is no end
You have no answers
There is no end

The Elusive Lady
The Moon became quietly jealous
One night when I surveyed Venus.
The usual glory reserved for her
Went to the dancer with Perseus.
At first, she passed for a star
Sparkling high above a church roof
But as she moved down further -
Her ample speed gave proof.
Outgoing clouds didn't shroud
The evening sky of cerulean blue.
Enchanted, I stayed around
To observe her quick rendezvous.
Fair Venus shined like a jewel -
Like one worthy to be set in a ring.
Because she was so beautiful -
She...
