The Beach.....

I walk the dark empty beach tonight
my only companion the misty moon

why have you left me?
why does my heart hurt?

I feel the cold cold sand beneath my feet.......

You came first and I followed
added with dreams.....
no matter the reason
sisters are we

A Woven Wall...Of Roses and Buttercups

you and I have come to the end, my love
who would know, who would have guessed
we once laughing and so in love together

holding hands when we talk late at night
into darkness.Stealing secret kisses by
moonlight, our friend. How could you have
let this be, how__my heart___it withers

after so long walking side by side.....

now our hands never touch
your arms no longer hold me
your sweet lips never meet mine.

I look deep into your misty gray eyes
you now just turn away hiding
all the yesterdays that you would not show

I can no longer see you for the walls between us
all built with love, such loving care
for someone else. Will there be some one in your
arms
woven so high, I am in the darkness

rings of roses and buttercup's and daisy's fall
to the earth light pink petals lie at your feet
for all to see, to know, there are not for me

woven so high, I am in the darkness
I am in the darkness now alone with my my aching thoughts

And so I walk blind, just a mere shadow
in a story so long ago

Star Dust

night tides of stardust
ebb and swirl___
sparkling messengers
some born of the sky
some sway with the earth's rhythm, the sea
listen, chimes ring out
she approaches,chime,the hour is near
she brings the eve time
with great swooping dark wings
the beating of those powerful wings
match the beating of my soul
her wings open and covers all in dreams

One White...Among The Red

She picked flowers today
cut fresh from her garden
tulips...one white among the red

Springs last bounty quickened her heart
one white, the others blood red
stems placed in water...tulips in a jar

Tulips to dress her simple table at springs wane
one white as pure as she...pale and translucent
like the snow to come, one white among the red

Haiku...Simple Beauty

morn's early songbirds moons crescent wains angelic chorus lights sky

Gone To Soon.......

thunder crashing all around
chimes in the wind___
soldiers in the black night
freedom flashing so bright

they the brave, the free
all came when we called
fighting for others rights___

some will live, some will die
they gave the ultimate....
their blood ruins in rivers
deep within my heart....so deep

dust storms pours rain down
on lifeless body parts
bear, tears for those deaf and blind

oh listen,oh listen___ one more time
look one more time as you pass....
they, too dead for dreaming

blood of love and memories
runs rivers of red___
like tulips in the spring
they are gone....gone all to soon
