Taking turns talking
Round tables
Regardless of
Where or with whom
My mind turns to you
Peel back layers
Time together immortal
All the words spoken
All the words unspoken
I shake it off
As love's loss
Love’s loss

When words are few
When words are few
Each worth a thousand
Times more
A short verse
Font on white page
Reveals a heart full
In your presence
Depth of silence
Means the world
Imaginary friend
What would one say
To knowing
The sweet cavalcade
Dancing in dreamtime
Where rainbow glitter
Unicorns and faeries
Parade then sleep tenderly
Among the daisies
Where folk from far away
Mingle peacefully
Sharing all their wares
Speaking freely
One another's tongue
The place where I
Hold you in my arms
Down my street
A patchwork of concrete
Black cat sidles along
Gutters eyeing passersby
A calico skips across
In front of me
Brazen on the beat
Darkness crawls
Too far between
Street light skirts
Even after all these years
Smiling at young woman
A creepy sense inside
For our safety
Cliff face laced with mist
Sandstone eyes watch over
Blanket of eucalypts
Butting up against
Blaring highway
Gateway to freedom
All along coastline
State of road and roofs
Never matter
When ocean views evoke
Breathless wonder
One day
I will stand alone
Surrounded by earthen
Treasures unknown
Consider the ways
A seed is sown
A nod, a smile
An act of kindness
Urban wilderness
More extraordinary
By chance encounters
Of my own kind
Lost and found
Bathe in your words
Thrill tickles gills
Until swept out
On riptide of longing
All at sea
Unknowing
A fair unknown
I have a special smile
Reserved for the few
Those who know me well
Know I'm thinking 'bout you
No matter how
Far away
Long since
Storm breaks
A heart waits
I’d rather
I'd rather be in love
In a ghetto
Than alone
In an ivory tower
Yearning years
Persistent yearning
Year after year
Suddenly released
Catapulted
Stomach unravels
Tenacity and grit
Bracing for landing
Into oceans deep
Where I longed to be
Floating, not drowning
Ebbing with the tide
Doused in freedom
Heartache suppression
Released tonight
Count the stars of heaven
