take me by the hand —
that is how I know for sure
that I still exist

Like spring fireflies
Some can sweetly waltz
Even the rose stillness

Reynaldo Casison

Our love waltzes
And mingles with the salsa ballerinas
Sighs of moonlit waves

Reynaldo Casison

Midnight moon golden
Upon the Spring pine tree
Majestic Like a Christmas tree

Reynaldo Casison

Brow pressed against wet tile,
sweet drumming feet
keep time in the hallway.
I project my voice up and out
of my steam retreat
“I asked for 5 minutes!”
I can’t recall showers
before they were born.

stop me — stop what we're
doing just so I can get
on my knees to plead
                                      (don't)

teach me how to look
at you like I know exact-
ly what we'll do next

Golden nectar flows,
sacred honey, vats of sun,
blessed in barrels deep.

Echoed praise dance halls
in quietness, we wait for grace,
mead poured like pure sunshine.

Brewed like prayer in cup,
ancient hands the humble craft,
joy steeped in amber rain.

honey stillness
Our loves maples sighs
Caresses the Spring moon

Reynaldo Casison

Starry night
Even the stars still dream
Of Irises Sunflowers and van gogh
