frantic summer pace
fireweed bloom, but slowly!
snow quickly follows

we laid there naked
sweating in breathless wonder
as the sun dried us
no longer kids just playing
now young lovers exploring

silly kid dreaming
a beauty like you my queen
watching you sleeping

Bear paw reaches out
thru the air chainsaws buzzing
bees wake swarming mad

jim, the lizard king
people are strangers, he said
at hyacinth house
la woman started my fire
love morrison till the end

hello i love you
find some peace frog, moonlight drive
on your crystal ship
with your riders on a storm
she always loves me two times

...sorry you've gone away.......

old shower shaver
could not stand to see that face
mirror shaving now

what's a lifetime mean
the mayfly hatching, I'm awed
so easily he flies

dream our life away
dreams do come true, we are proof
what more could I dream?
your here, laying in my arms
I dream with you all day long

We are the sowers of seeds
These little buds we choose to share
Need careful thought, love, and care
Not meant to be just strewn about to dry
Someone’s life lessons splayed out to just die
So whoever plants these in hopes of growth
have already done so, go forth and sow

That blue dream lifted from my hand
light as a feather but hard as rain
Leaving me alone as I jumped in chase
Missing again my baby blue dreams

golden portal through a crimson sky
shows promise of a gilded morrow
sailors long tales swear it so

fear binds
cripples minds
leaves you blind

Nothing to discuss
my words are never enough
I, you, us means love

snows early frosting
mountain tops now frozen white
termination dust

aqua moon swaray
ancient riverbeds aglow
spawning summer love

before this is gone
loving that one final time
in a warm embrace
a simple goodbye won 't do
whisper, caio babe, in a kiss

shadows disappear
like dreams end as bells strike twelve
when lights allowed in

My dogs are barking shut them up
That dog don't hunt stupid animal
Can't teach an old dog new tricks
He's a dog and she's a female version
We use dog in a derogatory way
put him on a leash if you walk today
best of friends is what they say
loyal to the core all day every day
who treats friends like dog crap anyway
But every dog has his day
Ever seen a Dogwood bloom, true beauty, I say

baby gummies play
running hiding from mother
sweet cubs find trouble

He signals you well
In hints of fireweed scents
snuck on mountain bound wings
making a out of the way trip
to let me know he has you

pristine reflections
not a ripple to distort
my imperfections

crawling from the weeds
fanged mouth ajar, eyes never blink
laid out, his evil deeds

When I think of you
Time flashes, light stops, I cease
Recalling nothing

smoking horizon
heat gusting this way
firestorms foretell
burning pain coming, raging
anticipation rising

your hot steamy breath
yesterday’s roast with gravy
betrays your mother
bear dog is fat and happy
stealings munchies from pappy

Black kites circle high
Tightening Slowly descending
Dark wings block the light

Love me to the moon and back
That is pretty far
But what of Pluto Saturn or even Mars
What of infinity or forever
Now you see the moon is not far
For Love to travel on a wishing star

Imagine,  if you will,
for a small split second,
my own despair
in watching your
own heartache coming
and patiently waiting
on it’s evident but
easily predictable
crashing of your
perfect little world,
helplessly watching

Praying mantis prey
As the swines consume the dead
The Jackyl's scale weighs

sweet, sour smells
under the covers, we breath
life's pungent secret
enticing, tasting the air
sampling our confections

Merle Haggard playin'
underage whiskey sippin'
kids skinny dippin'
rollin' **** while trespassin'
outlaw country kids kickin'

water has gone slack
silent air, calm clouds, just hanging
somewhere dolphins feed
