Silence sings chorus
Trailing in waves
Over mountain ranges
Always known
Since fair eyes met
A soul awakening
Who you are to me
Some things never change
Fair eyes

Leopard spots
Golden den of orchids
Wavering on windy
Spring day
Appeals to senses
Grow in certain place
Of community
Treasure trove
Of species mingle
In their shade
Who grows around me?
Companion planting
Colourful variety
Though foot and paw
Tooth and claw evade
Safety in numbers
Gnosco
No one else can tell
Contentment is knowing that
Your love is enough
Swoon
Long awaited smiling moon
Through dark nights
I have missed you
Surely my love is gazing
Upon you while wondering
When this phase ends
Before another one pulls
At my heart threads
All the tender places
Ache and burn
Stern hands bring no ease
While night flits lightly
Across her face in golden
Flames licking at window
I feel closer to her
Looking at moon, alone
Singing song from childhood
Words revive from
Somewhere out there
Self-love spree
There's something wrong
My brain is numb
My back is out
The words don't come
My teeth on edge
Stuck in my head
I feel referred pain
Down my leg
Shut-down meltdown
Walk all 'bout town
Spending eating giving spree
How to live life
Just.for.me.
Blissful ignorance
Now I know enough
For crazy ruminating
Over you daily
Soothe goodbyes
I sold my cello for cash
To ask a woman
To rub me down
From top to toe
My aching bones
It was lonely
In the big city
She talked long
Questioned me
As her hands worked
Along my arms
To my fingertips
A tremelo
Harmonic high
In her voice
Nerves sang to me
I dampened the sound
With my thoughts
Brave enough only
To dip my toes
In the Pacific
All my talk
Of ocean swimming
Covered in oil
A slick, skipping
Up sand dunes
Watching boys
Kick balls around
I kicked a return
They applauded
Yes, always a backstop
Left, right, out
Fielding questions
Of life, loss, love
All of the above
My hall grieves
Emptiness of dominant
Killer curves, gone
Instead halls are hallowed
By eager eyes waiting
For Ben and Jerry's
To arrive on the doorstep
Piano chords rise
Arpeggios to the sky
If I had it back
Could I play for you
Afterall that's gone
Between us?
Bare in mind
Burst into a new day - as is always
though stomach of lead
Soothing balm of acceptance
clears the head
Long nights cooling extremities
warmed by friction of two feet
Long embrace, tightly wound
whispering pillow talk aloud
Dreams of doll houses, life sized
landlord of childhood fantasies
Glimpse of morning breaking
shakes shadows to the ground
If I topped every peak
wore a floppy hat each week
Acquired mansion by the sea
planted vineyards, pressed for thee
Still, by dawn's clear revelry
no face will hold such clarity
As one who loved and let me be
when I had not a thread to weave
Long missed
We play, rest, rise
Woven skein unwinding
Houses apart, river abreast
Taking tea on balcony
Always a mystery of two minds
No sensation for downcast eyes
Cascading words lost and find
Fruitless picking out motivations
The bottom of pot, cooled
Renewed, steeped brew simmering heat
Rose between two cheeks
A blush sweet from scorching sun
Below 42 degrees
Blistering sleet
Homebody, I nest alone
Full grown tenderlings
Binding fallen threads
Of existence into thermal weave
So that you, like father
Can protect and heal wind kissed skin
As salty drops slide winsomly
A welcome sting. Long missed love
At least
At least a welcome distraction
From turbulent hot air rising
Cool, clearness of blue
Hiding under icicle-tips
Like eyes peering into
Shared hope of memory
Cut short too soon
At most an emotional roller-coaster
Sneak into the line-up
Hiding in plain sight
Smiling Cheshire-like
Secure fastenings
Allowing arms raised
To the sky
Riding the highs
Stomach drops on falling
Imagining hand to hold
At last pleasant thoughts
Rouse me each morning
Volumes of novellas
Unfolding
