they watched the sky’s children

over flashing threads of white

ravaged under frisky trees

ardor burned like anthracite



warlock thunder shook the ground

giggling rain did her ballet

one exquisite touch

they rose above the fray



they watched the sky’s children

over flashing threads of white

they exploded into stars

and travelled jealous night

will christmas come again

green on the door

kitchen with laughter

things as before



her long silver chain

draped fierce and tall

things forever alter

loss kisses all



the windows were open

sugar breeze so wild

sunlight drenched the hills

she looked at him

and smiled

she had a gorgeous wicked

her walk a vertical snake

she owned any king

ate their hearts like

melting cake

-

the planet was her palace

in silk and moroccan lace

she left wakes of desire

with devastating grace

-

he saw her one day

skin like diamond cream

her eyes caught his like fire

now she owned

his dream

ice
Softly cold the air
this pewter heavy way

bold the angel sword
pink dreams to deftly slay

drink this haven now
a painted a sky to fall

banished all to wither
in blue shadows crawl

oceans in these eyes
lost forever heart

frozen here in rock
forgotten mosaic art
Porter Dec 2014
air is heavy shallow
questions gone at last

the willows I remember
all this wicked past

now comes the golden
time of dust and breeze

meadowlark and pumpkin
fire on the trees

all things young do vanish
stores of guilt and pride

but some things wilt to color
i think of things that died

her
we stole some moments once
we turned our black to grey

we shared a certain thing
but we never had to say

blink and the moments fly
we love a world apart

but we built these tiny memories
and they still paint my heart
Porter Dec 2014
glimmer glimmer softly
piercing shadows in the sky

distant light that scratches
at the anchor holds me by

things that bind don't loosen
no shining path for me

only love i have to show
is setting glimmer free
