for we in joint gratitude
sing our joy for all eternity

autumn breezes meld my soul
to snow filled white tears

multi colored hues shine bright

The Apprentice

he was a scoundrel
the sorcerer's apprentice
magic was his gift

White Moon

as the sun rises
behind the white moon
black birds fill the air

sweet song birds to sing
fly over the sea
in and out of mists.

The Dark Moon

the dark moon haunts me
empty sheets grow cold
midnight calls your name

The Moon Calls My Heart

the porcelain moon
rises with the stars
calling my heart home

Island Adventure

here in the heart of the island
our adventure begins
cool sand follows our steps
as we greet the undergrowth

shadows loom close now
as we near the path unknown
cool is our journey as we walk this path
I know not the way but we struggle on

this island holds secrets profound
In the distance I hear the softness
of falling water
water, life giving water

it is here I will wait and
hope for rescue amid palms and vines
ever waiting for a sign of life
among the tall grass


sand digs deep my path
shade in the distance
wet leaves crushed beneath

Tiger Cat

the tree
planted long ago
beneath soil and roots she lies
sweet Queenie my cat

Night Of Passion

oh lover pause not
we lie together this night
our bodies are one

to night passions calls
we weave our souls together
as moonbeams shine down

This Day She Is Wed

in preparation
flowers are cut,vase is filled
this day she is wed.

Melting With In

she clasped the knife close
blending into black shadows
and waited for him

now the time had come
years and years of pain and fear
will melt away with him

Mighty Oak

the oak
last leaves to fall
a majesty of bright orange
bows about it's roots

come spring, the first buds

Night Vision

is it a dream
that silent flash
behind our eyes
lingering still
with the morning light
a bit of darkness from
our souls

dreams, masters of
nights sweet call
fill our hearts and
minds, a double blind

nightmares roll by
dark clouds
that rain down their fear
as dead leaves fall

night walks it's beat
vivid images turned real
magic horses up and down
merry go round ever
spinning it's web

but we are free
once morn's light
creeps to fill
the dark places

what was that, we might ask
as a black shape flits
across our vision
just a dream, a fragment
of night and time

Masquerade

in this world of joy and sorrow
heavy grows our masks in this masquerade
this paper life, this empty grace,this sting of death
for what left now this bit of soul grown null and void

too late too late the sands have drifted away
we are left naked cold and alone
harsh winter winds hold tight wrapping
our bodies in raw,rigid darkness,frozen in time

Which Way My Heart

which way my heart goes
moving through time and sorrow
each step my soul weeps

Mystic Ocean

layered clouds of mist
ride the silver lit ocean
pinwheel colors rise

mystic fall shadows
moonbeams light the changing stars
magic fills the void

Goldenberrys Garden

as the moon rises
Goldenberry's garden grows
fancy silver gilt

along the river
she picks pale blooms in the night
like moonbeams they shine

when her baskets full
she drops one sparkling bloom
for the river God

and sings a sweet song
as the river water swells
her laughter fills all
