There is wisdom
In the choosing
Delicate frame
Tender name
There is kindness
In the holding
Generous room
Bright bloom
Together with another
Who cannot remain
With love

There is wisdom
In the choosing
Delicate frame
Tender name
There is kindness
In the holding
Generous room
Bright bloom
Together with another
Who cannot remain
With love

There is a one I love
Who wanders far and free
Who pens adventures down
Her immortality
Her footsteps tread but lightly
Amidst nature's crown
Pause for meditating
Moments looking down
Her way is followed freely
By many searching ways
Weather turns and still she swills
A whisky end of day
If nature is a mother
She is a daughter true
Our itchy feet are longing
To tread behind in twos

I don’t blame you for giving me freedom.

Treasure from the deep
String of pearls
From siren's keep
Having a feeling
No one would want
To try them on
Come, unadorned
Beauty lies within
Rest on warm sand
With me

How does one know
What is real
Unless faced
With possibility
Of losing you?


Time stands still
On the frontier
Of our goodwill
Rest in place
Heart is warm
Yet bones are chill
Listen for longer
Song of whipoorwill
If none have ears
Is love a bitter pill?
Sun peeps too soon
Rest in me until
Wattle bloom in June
Gone too soon

I am sent out
To look for love
In remote places
Just as you
Following your voice
Leads me on
Paths turn away
How do I send
Love to you
Now?

If I dared
Come to you
A longer look
Plucked courage
To hold closer
Would it hurt
Me or you?
I feel your pain
With love

I long to hear
All the stories
Over and over
To infinity
Traced in silver
Gold filagree
Time is new
On every hearing
Making meaning
Being with you
Long enough
For words repeated
Story songs
Needle touches groove
And sings memories
Your face never fades
