Violas sway
and hum
in the face
of brumal winds.

Dripping fire,
the oak's toes
are nibbled
by rimy teeth.

Cradle me in your arms
and sing me into peace
drifting into lyrics and flat B's
love never sounded so safe

Invited into Dreamland
with love stories serenaded
in tunes familiar
connected through time

Lost in times gone by
begging another with restless moans
soothed into slumber
by music that still makes me smile

Rest upon my heart O God
And teach me how to rest in yours

For us, life holds;
countless enigmas,
uncertainty of existence,
certain exceptions,
bulks of expectations,
improbable concoctions,
perfect nothingness,
imperfect pains,
high level dreams.
But,
don't you think!
Brevity of human life,
ephemeral stay in this world,
is more simple and lucid.
Simplicity and Lucidity,
is all that life can give.

I clung to hope,
              but it was to tight
                             to loosen.

I swung silently in despair.

vanity is makeup-like, an airtight mask
eroding, alas, the skin underneath
