I am awed by your presence,
By the things that you do--
I am awed by your absence,
Left with the sense of you.

Listen to the night while your other senses rest . . .
A Strain (Tanka)
Starlit symphony,
Crystal clear orchestration
Of life after dark--
Wood nymphs breathe . . . more

Indulge
My heart a beat
Quicker than the others,
Your eyes, their widened state of awe,
Your grace appears along the ghostly path,
An ethereal truth of you
Lasting beyond your life--
My soul begs . . . more

Yearning
Whither wand'rest I
Save by the heaving sea
I dream of salt
And roaring surf
And there I long to be

Midnight Awareness
Nothing pierced my sleep
Yet my eyes glide open
To greet your sweet smile

Bouncing along with desert wind buffeting you, it's hard to know by the heat shimmers whether the road will veer from a mountain's path. Considering the road length and the splash of gas left in . . . more

Watercolor Morning
In the light of dawn
Glorious Earth reappears
Weak at first, then bold

The adobe stills
As musicians leave to rest;
Guttering candles
Shadow walls and instruments
Left to listen to murmurs

Suffused cumulus
Precipitates the first drop
To flip a crisp leaf

When late becomes early . . .
When the moon sails by . . .
When stillness prevails . . .
In the nighttime sky
A crash in the underbrush
Sketched lightly by snow
A red fox in downward throes
Pounces . . . more

Distant thunder rolls,
Shadows roam along the rocks—
Raindrops splatter one

First Light
Peachy smears sky nature's stage
Behind brittle autumn crisps
Of naked, nervous shapes—
Gilded, glittered cameos framed
By liquid sheets of transformed beach
For virgin eyes . . . more

Beside the Beach Chalet
A sheet of deep black
Ripped by fierce winds to display
Fiery storm clouds
Dance in throes and slowly die
As night claims the fitful day

My heart is full,
My head is stuffed.
I am glutted
By all things good;
You dazzle my eyes,
Squeeze my hands,
Scent my dreams,
Honey my tongue,
Lilt in my ears;
You course my soul
That I cannot . . . more

Dedicated to the efforts of the Tournament of Roses
The new year awoke
To a pan flute giving birth
To a rose-strewn way--
Crystalline--golden sun rays
Touch life's celebration

Of a day yet dawned,
Black as sin,
With promise only in my mind
For yesterday’s rays
To return and
Light my path again . . .
Still black with no hint
Of today’s picture’s lines-- . . . more

Here in my sweeping conifer bowl,
Rolling with a will for home,
I spy
Wind brushed wisps of gold tinged clouds
Playing with a lined transparent moon, full
Against a pool of deep cyan--
The real ecosystem . . . more

Draw me not
From the cocoon of my life
And make of me an omelet.
Rather,
Let my colors unfold
Glossy and wet,
And when I dry have me fly
Through the ether
Whole,
And flit as nature wills . . . . . . more
