Spring Thaw
The stream
undulating
in moonlight, twists and turns
melding crystal curves and dark soft
shoulders. |

|
Still, Magic
Thirty
years of fitting
our bodies together
and still, they sing songs in
the key
of love. |
Sunset
Sunday's
sun settles down
in thickening branches
and a dangling web holds a leaf
sparkling. |
|
|
Heading Home
Searching
to see inside
the next seconds of fog,
beyond the compass glow into
the night.
|
|
|
Cool Colors
Hundreds
of leaves swirling
the palettes of autumn,
scarlet and crimson and yellow
entwined.

Love is Patient
Waiting
for my shadow
at moonrise, I hear you . . .
knowing you're far beyond the stars
waiting.

Columbia
Seven
heroes who touched
the sky and dared to dream,
saw earth from afar...then left us
too soon. |
|
|
|
|
Long ago. . .
Your eyes
as you held me
in the space of a song
took my breath away...and I fell
in love.

Midnight
Thunder
between the peaks
with the wind sounding gongs
...
wild as the trees bent by the storm's
fury. |

Lost Soul
Stark nights
and eerie lights,
lost in shadows she lurks,
with nothing left to see or hold. . .
soulless.

Summer Heat
Red light,
green light, red light . .
.
She waves thanks with her
cane
as the old dog by her side
sits,
waiting.

Reunion
Our dance
last night was magic...
how your touch still
lingers
after the ordinary day
begins.
|

Night
Chill
Silence
between deep sighs . . .
under ceiling shadows
the sliver of moon between us
growing.

Underground
His chest
against her breast,
trapped in the rush hour
crush...
ah, the light at the end of
the
tunnel.
|
|
|
|
|
Surf Sounds
Falling
up into stars
from a cradle of sand ...
nestled close beside you, I
taste
the night. |
|
|
|
Third Date
Oysters
on the half shell
slide, polishing our tongues;
icy-cool silken saltiness,
so wet.
