We lie on the bed
Perhaps a foot apart
I see you turn
Onto your side
Signaling you are now
A stand of redbud
Ready for harvest
I mush myself against you
Collect sticks
For our basket

Waking
I wait
To see her
Sleepy eyes
Opening,
Like morning light
Veiled in fog;
And then
Her lips slowly
Bloom in smile,
As a rose
Waking to the dawn.
To see her
Sleepy eyes
Opening,
Like morning light
Veiled in fog;
And then
Her lips slowly
Bloom in smile,
As a rose
Waking to the dawn.

Peace
My love,
It is more than enough
For your soft breath
To waft so near my face,
While sound you sleep,
Secure in my embrace.
It is more than enough

While sound you sleep,

I think, therefore I’m damned
life exists more in
one’s head than
outside it is most
likely raining
and grey and so
depressing that one
has thoughts that are
best left unsaid

being completely toast
better to stay in bed than
to get up in the morning when there’s no butter in the fridge.
I don’t buy that, she says

Spur of the moment
Word spill
Fresh water
Grows a good garden
And I love fresh vegetables
I'm tired
That's all I got
Fresh water
Grows a good garden
And I love fresh vegetables
I'm tired
That's all I got

Winter
The room, once white,
now fading gold;
The day, once young,
is growing old.

Not Mermaids
Today
I was awoken
Not by
The sounds
Of silence
But by the sounds
Of sirens
And seagulls
Like a screaming choir
In a frantic
Chaotic
Harmony

Lightning Strikes
and I fall
in[to] grace
like a head
touching pillow
simultaneously
clouds breaking
into rain
this storm too
shall pass
in[to] grace
like a head
touching pillow
simultaneously
clouds breaking
into rain
this storm too
shall pass

She sleeps beautifully
She sleeps beautifully.
Quietly from her lips,
A lilac breeze:
Humble as the sea-sound
within the forest trees;
Her breasts softly fall and rise:
Exquisite serenity.
And while the dawn awaits her eyes,
She sleeps beautifully.
