voyeur
i felt
like a
voyeur,
watching
the stars
in their
room,
i stayed
awake
as long
as i could,
but come
morning,
they had
drawn
their
shades,
hiding
themselves
from my
curious eyes.

broken light
that early
morning
dawn was
breaking,
but still
felt well
enough
to take
a walk
with me.

The Tyranny of Dawn
Please let me sleep
I beg the early rays of the sun
just five more minutes
to close my eyes
but dawn answers back
trumpets blaring
Wake up sleepyhead, wake!
I bring you a bright new day
and so, as if against my will
first one eye
and then the other
are pried open by soft morning light
Sighing, I grudgingly accept defeat
watching dew glistening
like diamonds on seas of green
early birds looking for earlier worms
wondering if worker bees
are happy being so busy
I think...

In the morning
In the morning
Across the land far and wide
Shines the great god in the skies
His wrath in distant storm clouds
Rumbles and flashes
Undisguised
Pain and anguish
Of the night
Into the air burns
The vanished rainbow
Of my dreams delight
Across the land far and wide
Shines the great god in the skies
His wrath in distant storm clouds
Rumbles and flashes
Undisguised
Pain and anguish
Of the night
Into the air burns
The vanished rainbow
Of my dreams delight

By the Salish Sea
Vancouver Island in the morning
across the Salish Sea
in the haze of summer's dawning
as I'm drinking tea
contemplating what's before me -
a ship goes sailing by,
gulls are screeching more and more the
unanswered question why
the noise, do they see something
that I cannot see
perhaps an eagle, still there's nothing
visible to me
except the water lap lap lapping
gently on the shore
something somewhere must have happened
always there us more
going on in what's surrounding
than anyone...

Morning Light
extraordinary light is pouring
from the morning sky
onto the ocean ever more in
waves as photons fly
through the space that's in between
the distant Sun and Earth
flowing in an endless stream
to create the birth
of consciousness in all the beings
everywhere around
by the shore including me in
this place in which we're found
coalescing thoughts and feelings
at the start of a new day
in morning light with its appealing
shimmering on the bay
transcendental, mesmerizing
touched by the...

On Waking
You must have known
I was sleeping naked
The spare key,
I guess it wasn't hard to find
I thought it was a dream
but I opened my eyes
to that feeling
And that gentle bounce
guiding me deeper
And I thought,
such a wise girl
to treat me to that
Wake me right
sneaking in at night
Firing off the day
that perfect way
I was sleeping naked
The spare key,
I guess it wasn't hard to find
I thought it was a dream
but I opened my eyes
to that feeling
And that gentle bounce
guiding me deeper
And I thought,
such a wise girl
to treat me to that
Wake me right
sneaking in at night
Firing off the day

Heretofore First Blush
26/30
Heretofore First Blush
I was pleasantly surprised
to hear a rapid-fire clicks
in succession of one
another, at 3am,
this morning
I know that’s the sounds
of happy Hummingbirds
What I didn’t know
is they are up flitting
about that early!!
The Finches, Sparrows
Cardinals, Doves, Quails,
and Turtledoves
all rise around 5:30am
The predators are up
at dawn –
save for the Owls
Who hoot until
their bedtime
at 6am
I am up and down at all hours...

beautiful early morning
i wanted
to fly,
climb, an
afterthought
of pleasure,
stages of
my life,
sort these
light
and dark
moments,
let me
hang
headfirst out
every window,
let me
sing enough
beside you
just before
i fell
to sleep
again.

Some Days
Some days just suck
and won't let me off of bed,
pulling my comforter up, tucking feet in tight,
my down alternative filled castle walls
protecting me from the world
Some days I'm sick of coffee,
that morning shot of instant positivity,
thinking bah humbug,
the world needs to deal with me
and not the other way around
Some days I just want to cry,
if only I knew why,
crying for homeless people,
or maybe everybody being mean
oh, that poor flattened squirrel on the road
Some days just suck
if only I...

and i sat
waiting,
hoping,
one
more day,
from darkness
to trade
with
that bright
sun,
to trade
stories,
to laugh
at each
other's jokes,
to see
how long
i can wait.
