Empty Sky My witness is the empty sky,Devoid of any truth or lie.Raindrops tumble from clouds of gray…It all ends in tears anyway. Winter wallows with brutal coldAs cherished memories unfold.No matter what they do or say…It all ends in tears anyway. Behold as Christmas comes againWith scent of spruce and cinnamon.But time is cruel,Continue reading “Empty Sky”

Bewilderment
Bewilderment Summer beckons, delights of JuneMy eyes are the size of the moonGentle breeze caresses the bayAnd I won’t let it fade away. Pour the champagne, the night is youngThe taste of passion on my tongueThe weeping willows bend and swayAnd I won’t let it fade away. My wings flutter like mockingbirdBewildered by your adContinue reading “Bewilderment”
Beneath the Harvest Moon
Beneath the Harvest Moon Autumn fires burn in golden sunOctober hues have come undone.As catbird sings his mournful tune,I wait beneath the harvest moon. Whisked on the wind, leaves are falling.Feel the chill of winter calling.Love comes not a moment too soon,I wait beneath the harvest moon. Your lips taste of cabernet wine,Sending chills runningContinue reading “Beneath the Harvest Moon”
Rogue Specters
Rogue Specters Upon dark clouds did hope depart,An iceberg dagger to the heart.Dim shadows lit by fading light…Rogue specters in the autumn night. Ten thousand spirits strayed, adrift,Cast out by societal rift.Bound by vision to make things right…Rogue specters in the autumn night. They mount their saddles, carry onTo promises of blooming dawn.Sailing on sunbeams,Continue reading “Rogue Specters”
Vertigo
Vertigo My head is spinning round and round,My feet unsteady on the ground.I’m caught up in this undertow,I’ve got a touch of vertigo. I try to still these waves of changeAnd close my eyes to rearrange.I sense your warmth as cold winds blow,I’ve got a touch of vertigo. In fields of gold, your lips meetContinue reading “Vertigo”
Hummingbird
Hummingbird I dreamt I was a hummingbirdPursuing melodies unheard.Borne on the wind, so wild and free…In search of my true destiny. My silken wings carry me farBeyond the moon and shining stars,Above the weeping willow trees…In search of my true destiny. Cool waters beckon me to land,Reflections cast upon the strand.I looked, but all IContinue reading “Hummingbird”
Misty Eyes
Misty Eyes Little voices call out so sweet,Pitter patter of tiny feet.Smiles that light my indigo skiesAs tears of love sting misty eyes. Finger painted hands, work of art,Silly giggles that steal my heart.Moments cherished with each sunrise,As tears of love sting misty eyes. I sing their favorite nursery rhyme.Too soon, I’m running out ofContinue reading “Misty Eyes”
My Christmas Spirit
My Christmas Spirit Tender hearts swell with gratitude,The season casts its festive mood.Twilight twirls in fresh fallen snowAs Christmas lights twinkle and glow. Cardinals cavort in branches bare,Winter sun fades in crimson flair.Your spirit calls when cold winds blowAs Christmas lights twinkle and glow. Memories of you warm my soul,Your absence left a gaping hole.TearsContinue reading “My Christmas Spirit”

You shower me with faithful love,The greatest gift from God above.Blooming in yourContinue reading “Presence”
Stark Beauty Beckons
Stark Beauty Beckons Cast off your blindfolds with open eyes,The golden dawn morphs in blue skies.Emerald grass with dewdrops pearled…Stark beauty beckons in this world. Behold the jewel colors of fall,Noble maple stands bare and tall.On the ground, its crimson leaves whirled…Stark beauty beckons in this world. Blue jays frolic in pure white snow,Deer cavortContinue reading “Stark Beauty Beckons”
