Vulnerable
21 July 2021

When you hear a cry for help.
When you hold a loving heart.
When you question your firm belief.
When you help one ride the street.
When you take the pain of others.
When you accept a lie to cover.
When you are hungry and still share.
When your partner makes you dare.
When a child holds tight your hand.
When you eat sand right grand.
When you trust an enemy right.
When you forgive the one who fights.
When you see poet stars of blue.
When poetry stars see you.
When you love without condition.
When you live love song’s rendition.
When you share your home and table.
Vulnerable, to be able.

Mature
19 July 2021

Maturity, nostrils of sweated horse,
Cloistered tight grain silo.
Owlets from oaken corse,
Wandering, none ready to **.

Where you are known
19 July 2021

Nothing hidden, secrets hanging clear,
A pool of aqua green waters.
The eagle circles a moonlight sky,
Waiting.

Can It Be
18 July 2021

Now I know impossible possible.
Space and time crossable.
Love transcends reality.
What cannot, should not, could not be,
Has come from you to me
You are that infinity.

Perhaps Forever
Haiku

Perhaps forever,
Some loves never will die.
Today some still try.

Pictures
17 July 2021

Precious moments hold eternal,
Notes in my love bold journal.
So many ways remember you,
Kept our dreams, our lives two true.
When a second quickly lost,
Pictures precious never tossed.
This morning spent some time with you,
Closely held each day renewed.
Photos where we traveled light,
Image faint in dimming light.
Image shows my hungry plight,
Holding you so ever tight.
Time now darling moves right slow,
Loved today our picture show.

Sitting Alone
14 July 2021

Sitting alone, early morning.
Early sun, my deck,  stroking each leaf.
Warm tea still waiting, it’s own zen moment.
Unstirred.
My chair rocks starting unwakefullness.
Distance thunder holds an oil by Manet.

I, sit alone, early morning.
