Your eyes hold a promise
of a thousand vignettes;
a sewn art of narratives
and sunshine metaphors.

The soft wind in your hair
is unborn poetry
carrying a hefty cloud
of sonnets and cinquains
figuratively crafted
with a wreath of sweetbay magnolia.

Your heart is brevity;
a tapestry of haikus and senryu,
decoupage of ballads
in a sea of poetic musings.

You are made of rhythmic quatrains;
an endless ocean of poetry.
And i'm an anthophile
with lungs made from flowers


forever drowning in your smile.

I find “the morning”
to be subjective- despite
what the birds may say.
Late nights means hopefully late mornings. The heat brings open windows and loud birds. They would like me to know it’s time to start the day. I would like them to know I hope there is an outdoor cat nearby.
She will always wear,
threadbare gloves
with jagged tears
gloves her mother
made for her
Unravel with the passing years-
draping back a yard of thread,
the only tether to her past
Just a small poetic monologue.  I thought the idea of some old and dusty piece of clothing representing a lost childhood was an image many of us could relate to.

northern light

stretched all the way;
dawn to dawn day to day.

You take aim
and paint.
You or me

You then me

But never
You and me?

The more we walk together
The less we know one another

evil can follow you into the night
appear in your dreams;

ultimately impotent, weak
and very limited in its scope

much like the ghost train (you ride)
down at the local fair.
