Like bark on a tree
this face showed understanding and compassion
after years of weathered, wood-pecked patience

this feeling
bears no home in one thought
here in this heart it dwells
beating orchestral thunder
waiting its next tidal currents
bringing closer a stranger specter
paws impressed on deep forest moss
wandering easy with force and might
descending within a primal wilderness
jolting these foundations
in passion's yield

a holiday stamp glued
bound to envelope's travels
addressed in soul's ink

In this book of timeless love
you scribble each day's kindness
soaking up the sweat and tears
knotted words like silken threads

this page of clay where sunrise trembles
which follows night of ink-point embers
composed within this fevered slumber
and stays to pen this heart to velum

It's going to go on,
for years.
T-cell hurricanes
eye these vital days
graft vs. host no more

no more crying (for now)
time stopped before a cure
when flowers, trees, rainbow birds
visited past autumn's hour
to gaze upon an empty feeder

a stolen picture of youth
pinned upon a naked wall
a serious face looking back
as though to say, "If I,
in morning wake, it's a good day!"

A billion Blue Jays
away, where did they all go?
where did they come from
with fidget dance, round wing glide
crested legions turn with tide

sweet fragrance —
blossom your rosettes
with open petals
so that sense may
wonder inebriated love
