Every Autumn Ends in Winter

To-Be Am Then Time permeates me relentlessly in a stream rushing, babbling, trickling as the case may be   I inhale you You inhale me We exhale us To Be, Am, Then flow through and out a stream of us tobeamthen   Autumn is for sowing seed for growth that follows winter not every winter ends in spring but every autumn ends in winter   … Continue reading Every Autumn Ends in Winter

The Telescope

I peered through a telescope, to infinity it seemed, but nothing behind the eye to see, no focusing that way; Day by day I peered, each day the distance shrank, but now behind the eye, a lengthening distance grew; A length of twine unwound, stretched to furthest end, I began to roll it up, seeking the distant end. I turned the telescope, to look behind … Continue reading The Telescope

Your Breath Revive Me

Myth. Time is a myth. There is no time. When I’m with you Time stands still. Time with you is timeless. But how to communicate The absence of time, The fact of us? I. You. We. One. You are my life, My forever, My sun. I am your moon. You hold me in your orbit. You are my Center. My Universe. My Infinity. You are … Continue reading Your Breath Revive Me

When Breath Was a Whisper

In the middle of the beginning of the days of my youth I found you In the moments of the hours of my days when time didn’t matter You took me In the space between the time when caught breath was a whisper I came alive Just a sigh Just a cry Just a why Is all I have of you Nothing mattered then for … Continue reading When Breath Was a Whisper

Grains

Golden fields stretch far, Rolling hills studded with rocky ledge; My fingers brush the fibrous Beards of breezy strands Tapping at my legs; Behind me the reaper Harvests ripened grains. I move apace, steady on For looming edge. Continue reading Grains

Each A Vignette Of Life

In the forest, I walked with my head down, It was easier so, ‘neath my burden; My boots were muddied and scuffed; An eyelet rode free on frayed lace. The winding path was hard-packed From years of heavy, burdened travel; Pebbles and stones ground-in and smoothed By soles, and the wind and the rain. The soil varied in color, Brown, black, and gray, and tan; Grass … Continue reading Each A Vignette Of Life

Every Breath of Life

Chronos upon his pedestal, Cherub by his side, Points a crooked finger, Tells me in my pride, “No life ends unlived, No death is unbidden, Every breath of life, Open to review, not hidden.” Continue reading Every Breath of Life

Splash Me Across The Sky

Splash me across the sky, Throw me upon the universe, Let me shine upon your face As the light of a trillion stars, Your past, your present, your future. Scatter me upon the ground and kneel, Kneel and plow your fingers into my grains, Feel my billions of years of Earth. I blow my wind upon your skin, Fill your sails, Billowing white clouds Waft … Continue reading Splash Me Across The Sky
