. . .
embers glow
reminders
of the place
where yesterday
a fire burned
passions roared
bidding us to stay
I wish I had
another –
yet another waits
me still
beyond the rise
of blue
into the wake
of always
will
. . .

last
the chance of rain
was rising
somewhere east
the dark storm cloud
held the hope
of cold and something
part for us –
the taking of
the stir
of chill
beneath the fire –
the breath of warmth
before the wind
drops of faith
beyond the window
folding close –
not near enough
. . .

another time
when ashes fell
oceans blue
with splendor
left upon the shores
a wintergreen
messages
were never meant
this faraway to travel
promise rose
above
the smallest dream
graces come
and graces mine
within the still
of sorrow
are counted down
and back o’er ways
I came
further than
remembered me –
songs I used to wear
blossoms born
of longing –
sweeter
flame
. . .

in the still
that holds your memory
once beginning
of this fate
were candles burned
much longer
than the world
could wait
let silence warm
your tender heart
let children
wear your name
eternities
have passed for me
– tho none
I’ve held
the same

left me here
the signs of age –
a road already known
the ways
of some
an ancient storm
retold
and I
for one
could never guess
the wisdom
did he carry
would lift us up
some heaven
here
below
scattered ‘bout
these weary days
this plea
for something more
than e’er a place
of rhyme
could keep us fed
learned into
this passion
wherein your name
is writ –
folded fast
each page
upon my bed
sapphire tears
are hiden
by a questioning of light
of fear absolved
by love
I couldn’t say
of where I’d be
when morning found
me watching
for a sign
when worlds beyond
our knowing –
fall away
. . .

a place
beyond the golden shade
where once
my love was come
sprouted every april
with the sun
garnered me
a letting go
I never could be sure
of memories
left somewhere
I don’t know
while dreaming there
with all the rest
names I dare not say
are folded
soft to verses –
heaven tucked away
in cedar shifts
with last year’s plans
someone else
I knew
would find this way
so different
for our passing
through
fated by the willing
of one
this heart to hold
a rhyme
for every reason
I’ve become
eternities are wasted
in the waning now
for more –
than this
of us
a memory of home
. . .

fallen once
the maple chords
of memory beginning
would find
and wrap around us
sweet delight
tenderly
the sacred word
when all we knew
was story –
falling stars
beyond the reach
of night
. . .

of ways
that we are
seems as if
we were meant
for the flaw in our asking
– of longing unspent
so close
to the reaching
was the promise of more
than shadows permitting
this side of the door
moments
tho faded
find meaning in verse
in the same way we started
– as a dance
unrehearsed
exact
from my keeping
some measure of blame
where destines chasing
as willed –
we became
. . .

within
this morning after dream
of sparrows chirping sweet
the lessons
of ten thousand lords
are dust beneath
their feet
as poems
penned
a universe –
to whisper rarely heard
winds have blown
their memories
of mystery
to word
of telling
none so precious
as their longing lullabies
journeys writ
by dapple quill –
across my fragile
skies
. . .

of ways
I have not many
but to be
as I was meant
– some solace
to the fallen
I repent
the blessing
come of letting
– the bliss
of leaning in
to places unforgotten
I ascend
to wonder
where
and what might be
– for this
will I return
as colors into maple
rivers burn
remember me
to shadows –
sweetest breath
within the cold
of breaking –
there the beauty
– taking hold
as nothing more
for only this –
such truth
as love revealed
a sigh
within the silence
holds me still
. . .
