quiet

stone,
they hold
their secrets
under ice.

I Was 18 and Stoned, Okay?
What do the stars mean?
Absolute realization of one's aliveness.
The wind is a cool silver stream
She could stand still and live the pinnacle of happiness.
But up ahead, he is the ocean,
Can she, just once, dive off the moon
and jump into him,
his entirety
which surely would welcome her
with ecstasy, not obstacles?
Alive, alive, alive
The silver wind blows
The midnight mountain is a treadmill
They walk without concern
A rustle in the trees
Piqued curiosity meets opportunity

Cloak for the Summit
A soft canopy of cumulus clouds
lazily skimming past the summit,
leaving behind trails of light pecks,
gently caressing the mountain's crest.
An embrace in a cloak of fog
to shield it from the sunlight,
and sprinkles of drizzle
to soothe its thirsty soil.

Autumn Fog and October Mist
And When the sun shines
The morning dew glitters
While the fog is thick
The waking bird twitters
When the dawn awakes
And the light scatters
On every inch of earth
The drizzling dew spatters
Then, rise from every spot
The earthly living rumors
Sounds of every pitch
Scents of morning flowers
And the floating perfumes
Waltz high in the firmament
And the bees in honey quest
A faith, heavenly permanent

Taking a tablet
Taking a tablet for misinformation
Morning routine first thing take a tablet
Settles the acid in the stomach of my soul
Later on after a hard workout
Soak in Epsom salts
To heal my wounds
After dinner tension headache is
Two Excedrin do the trick
Soothes tired muscles
After we watch tv and she falls asleep
Pick up my tablet of misinformation
Go down many rabbit holes
Pulling on threads that just unwind
Facts set out like a puzzle
As a thread ends another begins
See some...

In The Dead Of October
In the deep blue yonder
Where the dusty pathways meander
The mist is thick
In the dead of October
****
The lark hovers in the sky
A pair of happy butterflies
There's dancing and singing
A moment of heaven is passing by
****
The blue mountain's majestic height
The pastures down, sleeping quite
Shepherds and silent flocks
A divine harmony, under God's light
****
In October, yellow flowers grow
A clear autumn day, sun's aglow
Spring has left some shine,
To keep some more...

Big Top Steam
A Big East Top Steam Whistle
The steam whistle goes off to sleep
No more coal left now we haul parcels and people places and then some
Want the steam whistle to echo through the valley
All I hear is a ghost whispering to me when I’m awake
So Kov bought it for scrap tryin to spin a buck
All he hears walking along great steel is
Ghostly voices coming from a steam engine from time before
They say here comes the Scrap Man
The butcher will tear us apart for profit
He says to them as long as I’m...

Mornings like these
My heart longs for peace
Craving solitude with every beat
I felt the breeze cling to me
The fire burned
Warming my hands
The warm coffee on my tongue
Mornings like these
Where I hear the trees
I sometimes remember my dreams
Craving solitude with every beat
I felt the breeze cling to me
The fire burned
Warming my hands
The warm coffee on my tongue
Mornings like these
Where I hear the trees
I sometimes remember my dreams

Wine in the mountains
The bittersweet taste on my tongue
I continue on
Drinking my glass
As I bask
In the sunlight
The sun hits the mountain tips
A whole new kind of bliss
While my heart belongs to the sea
This is also quite pretty
I walked
And saw the evergreen trees
And aspen leaves
Yellow and green
What a dream
I continue on
Drinking my glass
As I bask
In the sunlight
The sun hits the mountain tips
A whole new kind of bliss
While my heart belongs to the sea
This is also quite pretty
I walked
And saw the evergreen trees
And aspen leaves
Yellow and green
What a dream

When It Moves
It is
One of thee worst
Fears
One can imagine
The Shock
The Terror
The Fear
When the Ground
Moves
Under our feet
Not stopping
Until everything
We've ever known
Has Gone
One of thee worst
Fears
One can imagine
The Shock
The Terror
The Fear
When the Ground
Moves
Under our feet
Not stopping
Until everything
We've ever known
Has Gone

Mountains
Mountain tops with tips of white
Starlight lights the nights
The trees touch the sky
The sounds of rivers flowing
A warm fire
It’s not my favorite
But I enjoy the view
The hot tub in the mountains
The birds I’ve only seen photos of
The moment of peace
With surprisingly no heat
Except from the hot tub water
All so serene
And green
The air is clean
My escape
Much different from the cape
I shall like to paint
The mountains tipped in white
Like God’s way of resting his hands on the mountains ...

The Island
On a dark desert seaway
Salt winds
In my hair
Not knowing where I'm going
Just travelling there
Up a head in the distance
Apearing in the air
An island
Of shimmering light
I never knew was there
My legs grew heavy
And my eyes grew tired
I was thinking to myself
I had to stop for the night
And there she stood on the water
When i heard the whispering vail
I was thinking to myself
This could be madness
Or this could be real
Then she lit up a...
