GOD-EYE

THAT tear i wish to be

so pure a true drop-see

an innocent expression

so true conjured from me

made piece sad apple bite

my heels burn in stiletto

but my dress falls neatly

a walk from here to there

but ageless stares see

each frame-flash desire

numb-we my-soul-be always

i wish a rain to dance in

just me and cloud-thunder

that only an eye-God see

What I am inside always

OCEAN AND FOREST

In my dream i rode a wave
not one made of ocean
but that of heavenly
love — that quenches me
and i touched the skin
not of human but so much more
she had daises in her hair
and a smile of sunlight too
we decided to run down there
where the road forks in two
and ran toward the woods
where the love-green hide

the trees from the forest
what do you see in life
that before you is a dream
but greater is the forest

Love is an ocean and sun
and passion that green forest
flowers flotsam and candy
jetsam between love and life

Oh I wish for that beach!
where life can dig toes-sand
and umbrella laughter song
a salty wind caressing us!

BABY EYE

baby eye — so sad and quiet
you sit there in a bundle
and i can hear your breathing
and what heart beats there
a honey-soul to be loved
or one that conquerors

I sat beneath a tree
when i carried you there
and prayed to God
let this one be great
and move hearts —
a ladybug kissed me

I fell into a sleep
and watched your words
and that pen wrote
beautiful poetry too
tears of both sides
that coin always spinning

baby eye — so sad and quiet
your feet pink and tiny too
and those angel-lips pouty
what words will you write
another language angelic script
the first word — coo

so beautiful like the wind
so true like summer colors
a kiss from you is heaven
so i sit here beneath the tree
and kiss the heavens in bliss
its your true colors and words

MY EYES

my eyes — my Creator!
what have i seen —
that Glory within reach
those humble broken hopes
that golden binding Promise
my eyes, what have i seen
no word, expression-be
i see that horizon and over
across the rainbow of love
that Promise not just for-eye

TENDER FORGIVENESS

i tripped across
your ruby shoe
my clumsiness
begged forgiveness

and into that lush
bed of hopeful flowers

i tripped again
your blossom cherries
into heaven that purpose
faith is that forgiveness

and into that paradise
hand-in-hand we walked

WHAT HEARTS DO

there is no other feeling

like stone-cold loneliness

a bundled-grasp of fingers

around that tender beatings

what bruised hearts do

more than pumping blood —

attempting a release

that grasp of desolation

upon life’s countryside

NEVER SLEEPS FEAR

When now-fear comes
my fear-now becomes
that shadow form[less]
before a sunrise
do flowers at night
sleep before dawn
fear always sleepless
but love a lullaby
it sleep-rocks a heart

ODE TO TRUE LOVE

How do I live tomorrow
when today you gave me
a death bed reprise

you said I was gone
but my heart beats
it beats for you

today I gave you
I gave you my heart
I could count the seconds

but this night comes
and I’m sure you
you have a path

to burn our love
So I have no choice

daddy told me about you
said blues come
and sad days pass

so I’m moving along
I’m a girl who knows
lonely tears falling

and I never went wrong
and my arms are not
meant for the kind

like you who burns
dreams and fields

the birds are singing
and what are they saying
they’re saying girl

The angels cried

when you were born
and the Earth received
received a one like you
The heavens they cried

Girl there’s no one
No one…no one like you
Nothing compares to you

So I walk a lonely road
gravel and moss trees
but I still dream of you
and nothing compares to you

THE STARS KNOW

AND when you read
the note card
what feelings
speak to you
is it the love
or maybe the ink
did he speak to you
in a voice
that you knew
was it a true night
and did your space
twirl around girl
or was it your shoes
high heels tipsy
or a dream you wished
and only made true
listen to me now
would you rather
be alone or ravished
by false beliefs
Or is it true —
love isn’t so clear
Girl make a decision
let your heart show you
truth — follow the stars
look up they will show you

DOMESTIC FEAR

I was the perfect
appliance for you
fitting so nicely
between your stove
and kitchen sink

I saved you time
and cooked dreams
a perfect buddy
I wiped your tears
when your apron
hugged too tight

I reminded you
of a promise
your tears soaked
into the stonework
and my song
killed the moment
when I sang it…

I am a dream
in your brain
a domestic fear
you have to run
a perfect dream
so special dear
you run from me

I promise dear
a warranty too
our secret washes
and cycles heat
leave no stains
just lemmon bright

I save you time
a special moment
when life holds you
and role models die
but sweetheart hear
that you are perfect

you are a dream
more than he knows
you’re fucking special
so fucking special
you are a dream girl
and i love you so much
