The Shepherd's Hour
The Shepherd's Hour
The moon is red on misty horizon
Within a dancing fog, and the plains
In vapor dozing, the frog complains
Among the reeds, where chill has arisen
***
Water flowers have closed their petals
In distance far, poplars show profile
Straight and tight their ghosts unseen awhile
And between the bush, glowworms shuttle
**
The owls now awake, noiseless take flight
Rowing the black air with heavy wings
The zenith full, a fainting glow blinks
White, Venus emerges, it is Night *

Winds blow
Wings aglow,
In the night they glance, so free,
Winds ablow,
Stars above that softly glow,
Butterflies in twilight's trance,
Bats in flight, in starry chance,
Wings aglow.
In the night they glance, so free,
Winds ablow,
Stars above that softly glow,
Butterflies in twilight's trance,
Bats in flight, in starry chance,
Wings aglow.

Journey to the Stars
There are no more holes
to bury secrets.
Standing in the chasm between
body and spirit, I am unbroken.
Taking back my time, my being,
my every last piece that once was dismantled,
walking into a new life
here, or into another dimension
replete with love:
this is the measure of life.
Emerging in starlight as
dust to earth
heat to fire
breath to air
weightless to water.
My journey to the stars
may be long…
But it is healing.
to bury secrets.
Standing in the chasm between
body and spirit, I am unbroken.
Taking back my time, my being,
my every last piece that once was dismantled,
walking into a new life
here, or into another dimension
replete with love:
this is the measure of life.
Emerging in starlight as
dust to earth
heat to fire
breath to air
weightless to water.
My journey to the stars
may be long…
But it is healing.

Cosmic Hush
In the realm of splendid voids,
where silence dances and shadows play,
there exists a place beyond the stars
where nothingness blooms in shades of gray.
Superb nothing at all times
when clocks cease their tireless chime
and the universe holds its breath
as if waiting for a secret rhyme.
No suns to rise, no moons to wane,
only echoes of forgotten dreams,
in this cosmic hush we find solace
as reality unravels at the seams.
The wind whispers tales of absence
and the rivers flow with empty grace.
Mountains...
where silence dances and shadows play,

No suns to rise, no moons to wane,
only echoes of forgotten dreams,
in this cosmic hush we find solace
as reality unravels at the seams.
The wind whispers tales of absence
and the rivers flow with empty grace.

Stars Eclipse the Moon
smothering the dawn...never
layed=back resistance to relieve tension
I prefer a hands-off approach
present, without impeding the wind
manners matter when dealing with molecules
on a molecular level, the earth is grieving
Its growing pains are recognized
as the universe stretches bending time to accommodate growth
within and without
sentinels of peace keep track
it is purported the Earth is billions of years old
humans laid track alongside the dinosaurs
giants have come and they have gone
so says time ...

The Ballad of the Crab
Old Hercules was brave and strong,
a credit to his dad.
He made the world a safer place
which made his dad’s wife mad.
Back up a step, that’s not quite true.
For Hera had some proof
that Zeus can’t keep it in his pants
and took her for a goof.
Babe Herc, he was a demi-god
birthed of Alcmene’s line.
Instead of getting mad at Zeus
Queen Hera hurled all her abuse
at stopping Herc’s divine.
She tried to kill him at every turn,
and never got her wish,
but that’s not the tale I want to tell
I want...

Garden of Stars
In the twilight of memories,
where the real and the imaginary intertwine,
there is a secret garden, hidden among the stars,
a refuge of dreams and hopes.
On the banks of the river of eternity
flowers made of light and longing grow.
Its petals sparkle like constellations,
and its roots go back in time.
Every flower holds a story,
a love that transcends mortality.
The winds whisper ancient secrets
and the stars weave threads of destiny.
In the center of the garden there is a mirror

Star Wars
The stars are aligned with my soul,
Mars as my fingernails,
Read this brail,
We seek and tell the truth,
Venus like a belt, this loop,
Is seldomly moved,
Neptunes a lace, placed inside the loops of my shoes like snakes when they move,
My heart,
Races hard,
Mars is my guard, come marvel and march with me,
Walk quickly to saturn,
Eclipsed to the masses this glyph,
Like a lantern burning pictures to ashes,
Risk is all i have,
My eyes on venus,
Rise like creases in jeans im neat what it seems,
We speak wit a meaning,...

An Amatory Experience
The gleam in your eyes was like the light of a star.
Your matchless beauty becharmed my heart.
We had moments filled with laughter as never before.
Gianna, you made me show my best qualities.
In the silence of the night, two young hearts beat fast.
We felt as if time had frozen when we kissed.
Our ardent love appeared to be endless like eternity.
We couldn’t imagine living without each other.
We had an amatory experience a long time ago.
You didn’t accept the engagement ring I offered you.
Regrettably, our youthful years were...

With that marble white skin
Plump lips
Almond eyes
Child of God
Playing with light
Come on dear
Let us catch fireflies
Let us dig the stars

Child of God

Come on dear

No thimble...
In a sewingroom
ten agile fingers
moving around
the fabric parts.
pins and needles hidden
sting the fingers
and pierce the skin
under the weight of work.
where's the thimble
that's been bought past times
for the disjointed fingers,
so complex fingers?...
where are all
the thousands of thimbles
that one's been taking home
for the last centuries on?
ten agile fingers
moving around
the fabric parts.
pins and needles hidden
sting the fingers
and pierce the skin
under the weight of work.

where are all
the thousands of thimbles
