whispers

worry not
o’er promises
to vanish in the light
let kisses fall
as proof
that you were here
as gentle stirs
the morning
beyond the reach
of why –
might reason
be as slow
to disappear

let not your tongue
these secrets bear
as refuge
for the flight
where silence tells
our story
now again
let –
and I (a souvenir)
held within your heart
as whispers
guard the places
I have been

. . .

undenied

of paths
I’ll not remember this
how far
beyond your arms
beyond the safe –
somewhere
still we are

will years
become
the wearing down
into eternity –
a late night
in the kitchen
silently

rehearsed
again
the coming back
forgotten now to go
love is still
– I wonder
how I know

. . .

the almost lines of future lives ~

remember

once
in still
another wrote
his name
upon my soul
a lovely shade –
no different
than my own
cursive drew
across and through
back and forth
(remember)
the stiches were so small
I never knew

the almost lines
of future lives
the need
where grief would tarry
for never would
my story
love deny
dots and dips
and slashes –
longing curlicues’
are weaved
into the rhythm
of a sigh

. . .

a place of silent fame ~

with gratitude
my soul becomes
remembrance of a name –
the taking in
til I am filled –
a place
of silent
fame

to resurrect
these mysteries –
much more than I can say
a truth denied
the words as yet
shall ring
some other day

. . .

memories
are sewn to me
petals on my sleeve
a song –
a music
sweeter than the night
proof when morning finds me
drifting back
from dreams –
nestled in a sweet
embrace of light

comeagain names
already known
maple
rose
and sparrow –
called to us
reunion of the saints

. . .

comingnow
 in the glow
of silver shadows
wings are barely seen

rescued by illusion
of the night

held us close
to promises
 dare we know the truth
never meant for word
never heard
a leaving
leave

dreams
are gone to waking us
before our will
is done
 secrets tempt
the pillow
with goodnight

theyknowmethere

of solitude
no worse for grace
alone is not so very
as stars to swear
allegiance to the soul
gathered breath into the wake
of one more everafter
I shall live
in heavens I have known

find me near
the water’s edge
beneath a pink umbrella
swept along with dreams
the wait becomes
past the turn in churning
one more tender take
spring is fell
and love is just begun

. . .

intention of flame ~

sweeterthis

let me
remember
the heart of revealing
wrapped in surrender
alive in your eyes
grant me
a moment
when all is forsaken –
but the smell of your skin
the song of your sigh

give me
forever –
no more for this passing
of evermore come
the intention of flame
prayers for delay
the morning forgotten
would silence give room
the sound
of my name

show me
to know you
the same as was then –
another we lingered
tho lifetimes ago
fill me
with storybook tales
of tomorrow –
trade for my breathing
your own –
nice and slow

let me
grant me
fill me for keeping
something this sweet –
for another shall end
life before living
leave me to wonder
give me
receive me –
take me again

. . .

so easy ~

butone

in the space
where forever
took more
than a life –
hello seemed so easy
let go

a memory parsed
into measures of grey
hymns to a page
without word
were one to remember
a moment so sweet
as pulled
from the books
where history made

places to touch
now and then
even so –
like a spot
in the wood
surrendered to sound
– leaves speak a language
their own

knew us somehow
as a face
without name
eyes without cause
to recall
why we came

or silence beheld
in the space
of goodbye –
forever took more
than hello

. . .

poem

tempted by a whisper
the singing of my soul –
a voice I scarce remember
now abides

as stirring to
a poet heart –
shadows of belief
slept beneath my pillow
long the night

fluttering
against my sleep
eager to my rise
silent ancient rhythms
flood my still

. . .

shades of cedar ~

trust

were there storms before
we lasted –
and now the signs are gone
scars remain
but not with thought to loss
or changes due
their coming back
stories writ by time
sweetened now by tenderness
and truth

forgiven are the choices
were come the sake of love
would not I know
I’d make the same again
flush against the feeling
blossomed by the bliss
wishing long on stars
still hang the sky

lace is streamed
from evergreen
robins crowd the yard
where morning bread
was scattered from the porch
silhouette of winter shapes
the fences falling down
I sit awhile
wrapped in solitude

a quilted patch
called living
no pattern but of love
tiny hands once stitched
and cursed and made
destinies to warm me
more I’ve yet to see –
coffee cold
but still it makes me sing

where we were
we are the same –
as silence keeps the dawn
showers fall
and there the seeds
redeemed
quietly the sunlight stirs
life in shades of cedar –
witness to the waking
pulls the love
around
