Tonight I heard the voice of God
Angelic voices from within
Tonight I took a gentle hand
And was forgiven
Of my sin
Tonight I left behind
The burdens of my bodied world
To one of familiar harmony
Of peace and times of old
No more restraints
Nor existing pain
I am the stars and sky
I am your breath
As you are mine
Forever shall I fly
For life is but a stepping stone
It is our love that binds
And we shall meet
To hold one near
In the great Divine.

Flavorless
Eat your plate of hopelessness
Drink your glass of whine
Feed upon unflavored guilt
With loneliness you dine
Hug the empty pillow
Love the emptiness
Get your ducks all in a row
With worry and unrest
Do not allow a happy thought
Or dream an undreamt dream
Stagnate in your darkened world
Scream a silent scream
Feast upon a tasteless life
Let no flavor in
Days will pass and quickly so
And soon your life will end
Drink your glass of whine
Feed upon unflavored guilt
With loneliness you dine
Hug the empty pillow
Love the emptiness
Get your ducks all in a row
With worry and unrest
Do not allow a happy thought
Or dream an undreamt dream
Stagnate in your darkened world
Scream a silent scream
Feast upon a tasteless life
Let no flavor in
Days will pass and quickly so
And soon your life will end

Moonlight Opera
The moon lights up the water
Casting reflections
Shadows tiptoe
A water dance ballet
To the accompaniment
Of an orchestra of wind and trees
A choir of woodland creatures
Sing in harmony
A grand performance
An opera for the stars
Casting reflections
Shadows tiptoe
A water dance ballet
To the accompaniment

A choir of woodland creatures
Sing in harmony

RAINBOW
Follow a ribbon of colorful sky
In search of a pot of gold
Open your eyes and you may see
The treasure, the gift is
Nature’s beauty
In search of a pot of gold
Open your eyes and you may see
The treasure, the gift is
Nature’s beauty

THE WEB
Spider's silk woven among the trees
Ever so delicate
Yet, intricate in design
This creation's artist
A venomous vixen
Waits for her prey
Oblivious to the beauty
She has bestowed
Ever so delicate
Yet, intricate in design
This creation's artist
A venomous vixen
Waits for her prey
Oblivious to the beauty
She has bestowed

ODE TO BEATRICE
Beatrice planted
With phase of moon
Be damned her
crooked spine
Her harvest
Plenty
Her salvage
Sweet
She greeted
And shared
With all
She'd meet
Beatrice parted
when Moon was full
Before it
Was her time
No one mourned
Though her deeds
Were grand
Was always
Present
With helping hand
With phase of moon
Be damned her
crooked spine
Her harvest
Plenty
Her salvage
Sweet
She greeted
And shared
With all
She'd meet
Beatrice parted
when Moon was full
Before it
Was her time
No one mourned
Though her deeds
Were grand
Was always
Present
With helping hand
A LAST DAY
He sat upon
A wood park bench
And watched some
Children play
His boy inside
Still denied
His age
Though hair
Was grey
The years
They pass so quickly
You're young and then
You're old
Memories fade
New ones made
And stories
Left untold
And in
The lonely distance
He heard
A small child sing
With tear
In eye
He breathed
A sigh
And touched
His wedding ring
He heard
A child laughing
Squealing
With delight
It made him grin
And he touched
His chin
And laughed
With all
His might
Laughter
Like a sonnet
Soothed
Mortal soul
This day
He closed
His eyes
Said goodbye
And gently
Passed away
