26 thru 34 of 34

Ascension too fast
Lungs explode before tongues meld
alive once again

Fine pointillism
clarity from a distance
planets at the edge

Shout hallelujah
frenzied oxygenation
salt water on lips

Accelerating
behind us time looms ahead
wrapped implicitly

Love again refrains
adrift on sunny sandbars
palm fruits, dates, acai

We are young again
stellate beings thrice reborn
twice kissed we are alone

Two swimmers azure
water beaded sky blues hope
refracted visions

Before words we were
nothing, pointed subtlety
essentially stars

Will never lose me
mouthed indistinguishably
there underwater

My Christmas tree stays up until the spirit of the season leaves me. There are years my tree doesn’t come down.

My Purple Friend

How wonderful that
should anything stain,
‘twould be a berry

18 thru 25 of 34

Suddenly without
love’s denouement sings sadly
still ache crescendos

Massive cores collapse
passages to yesterday
bridges to Other

Melody solo
lost, searching harmonically
hearts rapt atonal

When stars burn cooler
life has opportunity
everywhere blue worlds

Shall never find me
resounds off wet chamber walls
where echos loiter

The scent of Goddess
permeates all creation
sweet salinity

A flickering flame
somewhere a flue, air to breathe
pinpoint light quite dim

Life is atmosphere
creatures born to see the light
watercolorists

peace, love, light, and the promise of rejoicing

10 thru 17 of 34

Circular water
too near the edge of the falls
the promise to drown

Godspeed is lightspeed
we see until we are blind
not invisible

Holding fast they plunge
in momentary freefall
defying the crush

We are dark matter
more of us than meets the eye
feel our gravity

Two plummet headfirst
upturned soles to God’s heaven
the tickle of love

Ripped seams in space-time
blessed beings emerge headfirst
the dead prefer breach

Plumes of graceful froth
envelop twin beating hearts
up until the sere

Nothing left to burn
suns die everyday out here
to leave voids of love

4 thru 9 of 34

Silence glistens here
Chilled pools beckon promising
Reflection under

We are born of stars
So proud until we pulsar
When fusion ceases

Among all two find
A sense of having been there
Empathetic eyes

Eons erase hope
What once would light forever
Turns to gamma ray

Shall never lose me
Shouts beyond the din recede
To vast empty stretch

Pridefully suns sear
Hot too fast, too self-consumed
No cheeks yet to burn

cc: CC '23 peace and light to all

1 thru 3 of 34

Stars are formed in clouds
of gas and dust, nebulae
nuclear at core

The eddies mist cold
lavender melts under snow
bleeds purple on white

Stars provide enough
energy brightly for years
the exact lifetime

The Climb

I’m really going to 
make this one rhyme,
sort through words’
dirt and grime
for the sheer sake of
poetic petty crime,
in meter, en pointe
with a squirt of lemon, a
bit o’ lime

hey
did you know
in my prime
I was a mime?

before that
an enzyme

let’s catch up,
maybe next time…

Imperative Elide

My tone implied the detail
she needn’t know

Whysterical

I wish I was 
a wisp of wisteria
winding to entwine

once wound we would
while away the day

I twine clockwise,
…you?
