still_of_mine

come
o holiness
unravel
all my mysteries
and nurse this tiny flame
within your light

swarm within
this cavern so –
take to yours this life
passages divine
ten thousand old

carve to name
and sit the sun
still within my stillness
o sweet immortal grace
bestow to mine

eternities
as surely come
reveal yourself again
if e’er I might
become the same
as these

as candle flame
to lure the wing
let my knees be bled
to speak in tongues
the ancient ones
now tell

o Bethlehem
o northern bright
o stranger I have been
seize for me
the morning –
where heaven dares
unfold

these ~

stolen

of these
and no more
I would swear
my allegiance –
and let not another tear fall
would pass unafraid
to the edge of the knife
with courage to suffer
for all

restless to wander
the last one arrived
to places I already know
held as a child
whispered a lover
of somewhere I passed
a long time ago

were doubt
and regret –
of sorrows to sew
shared of a vision unseen
written to secrets
will live in my stead
and curse not
the hours between

my heart
keeps apart –
moments so dear
forever decided
as stars without shame
fell not the distance
of years into light –
or splintered by thought
into flame

. . .

fire to the nest ~

again

will come as breath
forgotten –
permission to believe
a strangeness to the light
already formed

as silences
remember us –
lifetimes since the first
as fates to fade again –
the waiting weights

when lightning splits
the dark apart
and sets fire to the nest –
will stormclouds chase the night
as longing unconfessed

to understand
as never could –
words can barely touch –
the essence of a moment
lost in time

within the dawn
will surely be –
colors once we knew
returning every time
we close our eyes

moments ~

stirring

sit to quiet
the morning sun –
here to cool the shade
stay without e’er a need
for words

watch across
the lazy field
as wings to breakfast
fall –
spiraling provision
to the light

rest
before the day returns
be as one with me –
the redtail hawk
and raven –
the ancient evergreen

smile
and I will feel it –
by the telling
in your hand
wrapped in mine
awaiting time to slow

mark the way
and I shall find us
waiting here this night –
sharing then
the gifts of love

beneath
a patient moon

. . .

gather me ~

recall to me
the winters past
of times –
and truth and reason
of moments more defined
and less restrained

by what was said
and who would grieve
our questions of redemption
when wondered of a time
when all was love

restore these fields
of innocence –
a lazy Thursday morn –
and nowhere soon to go
that cannot wait

gather me
to all you have –
a destiny forthcoming –
a place no longer
shadowed by the stars

of graces
we’ve forsaken
in the want for something less
would progress
take the place of times
we loved

fragile consolation
to all we might have known
when passed this way
again –

another time

give to me
the memory
of years unfated now
tho dreams can only take me
where I go

longing wears
a purple dress
the shade of which I love
and worries not for sins
already paid

without ~

was ever one
a time to see
beyond our mortal sight –
to know
without our knowing
of dark within our light

of stars denied
our wishes –
some mystical retrace
eternities
reminding us –
of moments without place

of gone ahead
and ways to come –
with miles the path til then –
would garner more
than ever fate –
in lives
to love again

was ever there
a loss of self –
another trust to earn –
prayers to lay the night
beyond our reach

was certain come
a place we were
would seal as one divine
knowledge of forevermore –
a time beyond
our time

as only now
of all I have –
of hearts – one soul
made true
wherein I am –
of all I am
as once before I knew

to places
you are part of
every one – in every way
to dreams
where others sleep alone
I wandered yesterday

to lexington in autumn
endless fields
of winter grain
where friends around me gathered –
seeking refuge from the rain

ribbons kept to letters
nights I read them
one by one
– and listened
as the sirens wailed
into the dying sun

you were there
and I was fearless –
every story bound to mine
with no worry for tomorrow
– or a longing
undefined

of faraway confessions
I’ve forsaken death for love –
was a moment
you were with me –
do you remember where
that was

in the still
that is my gratitude
the wildest orchid blush
and trees –
ten thousand years
are just begun

music without words
to need
or tears to grieve
for longing
robins bathe in pools
of aubergine

ribbons twist
against the blue –
reminders of another
and graces come
to ease the pains
between

love would ne’er
aspire to more
love when none was asking
heaven seeks her own
to love as this

gardens grow without
a thought
of sunlight on the morrow
drinks of rain
without the thought
of none

discovery ~

forgiven now
the long night waited
of morning come
as proof of grace –
where shadows passed
from one – another
eternity at last
with place

who shall come
would know my story
of mysteries I’ve left behind
touch returned
as blossomed mercies
written now
your truth to mine

years have passed
as verse unpracticed
kept to lines
I scarce can read –
silken thread
untied
unraveled
more than want –
such tender need

favored cup
my hands remember
other nights we passed
the same –
lives to crossing
maps unfolded –
destiny at last
a name

. . .

gone blue ~

as thought to a moment
lotus gone blue
spinning my soul out of sight
love clings to wonder
the hand without hold
as warmth swept aside
when lonely
is come

as rush to the willows
the breezes of May
have carried
to spirit the secrets we saved
eastern to rise
as a once faithful star
come softly to nights
where I lay

were not for the one
to know of me now –
ages and graces undone
pull me beside
as stories retold
and I’ll fold to tears
every time

garner me truth
I can’t say I’ll know
tho once held the name
of another I knew
places somewhere –
they whisper of me –
as lotus too long
letting go
