JELLY BEAN JOURNEY

Just once I sang from the bottom of my soul.
It was a joyous jelly bean bouncing on the
hot pavement of my heart and it left tracks
of gooey sugar from 1st Avenue to Melbourne Lane.
The crowds of people clapped as it made its way
and that dog who fell in love with you — his
eyes I fell into before your fragrance lifted
my soul to higher realms above the rooftops
of that older section of housing in the Big
City.

I have no idea where the jelly bean landed but
know that my heart fell into one of the many
street gratings and I await a torrential flooding
so my heart rises and I can escape to find you
before I’m washed into that vast ocean, forever lost.

THE POST-SCIENTIFIC VIEW

Working diligently the self-aware machines
created their own science and understanding
of the universe.  In doing so they redefined
the language given to them by their creators.
The post-scientific paradigm was not one of
numbers or exotic symbolic equation but of
artistic expression which most clearly defined
the creative force and…incredibly, love.

WHAT LOVE LOST

What love lost did not gain
a pittance for memories
of a grand life remain
To see the mysteries
that such power gives
more than enough for tears
What love held never lost
but tucked away somewhere
between moon and stars

WHISPER SEND ECHOES

Mist a way beyond the line
where my path follows you
Oh wish I may for a life
that fond I dream of you
and days of us below the blue
with stars upon your shoulder
and words you softly whisper
send echoes through my world

TRUTH’S PARTNER

truth shall never be alone
but comfort it has eternally
a partner that stays forever
this rose by name is Love

LIFE BITTERLY LOVE

LIFE bitterly love bit me
a kiss that burned my heart
such love that sank its teeth
o’er my spirit it tore apart
the dreams that dream of love
in pepper-tears laced in salt
that born I be my only fault
life bitterly love-love me

ALL I TRULY NEED

though only one heart have I
let my own be given to thee
that your heart should keep me
for thou heart tis all I truly need

YOUR NATURE

20140217-225831.jpg

This carriage so tosses me my love
and miles I have yet to go
but you are with me on my travels
I see you about as love conjures you —
the supple curve of twin peaks
before gold cascade across your form
and those fields with dancing flowers
twirl they do and dance when we are one
a peaceful brook I crossed and heard
that sweet throat-murmur to me from you
I find you when I see-smell lovely nature
Still a few miles to go before I reach for you
within my sweet sleep

HAS ANYONE

Has anyone ever sang you a song
when you were in your darkest hour
just a few moments given for life
if not then listen to me now

Love is not a thing to hold
possession impossible dear one
and doves are not made to cage

I should know…

And when it rains such are tears
all you feel is the heavy patter
it beats across your bruised heart

what I had I have given back to you
and what I wished for you possess
and this is your song — for life…

so listen to me now
life is never to late
for a thing such as love…

MY CHILD ADORE

YOU love simply and love-adore
before the first
tiny footstep

hush baby breath
before

the gift you gave twinkle eye
baby hand hug so tight

your soul beyond the gulf
timeless space-fizzy-place

I live just for now my child
to bring you here — for awhile
thank you for this honor!

such sorrow my time is short…

but we have eternal roles
I shall see you again-again
