birds, home, learn me, life, love, nature, rivers, stars, truth

as the last
constellation
brushed into light
planets not yet given
to name
as weeds tangled over
barbs of our past
I want you
to love me
that way

as a three quarter moon
oceans obey
souls coming back
for a kiss
as the memory of sparrows
sailing to home –
I need you
to love me
like this

like a wild
tameless river
carving canyons
to the sea
with reckless abandon –
love me

. . .

dream, life, love, moments, only this, poet, soul, stars, surrender, time

moments fold
on one another
years succumb to getting on
– love remains
the only truth we know
when looking back
is nothing
but a waste of time
we hold
a flash of blue
before a crimson glow
as evening met
with darkness –
arms to reach around
a poem not yet
written
to my soul

. . .

desire, destiny, love, sometime, stars, waiting

i have waited
for the season
you might reach for me
this way
when the snow has melted
and every fate
resigned
would that you remember
marigold and blush
of kisses sure
to bind your soul
with mine

i have waited
near the shadows –
pressed my heart
against the stars
casting out my prayers
to destiny
tempted to retreating
cotton wrapped around
touch
wherever touch
is sworn
to be

. . .

let me stay ~

grace, life, love, passion, starring in your dreams, stars, stay

were I the place
to lay you down –
a valley lush with lace
as quietly a moment
became a cry for grace –
stars for watching over
let me linger
let me stay
tangled in your wilderness
a captive to your pleas
breath without
remembrance –
a fragile destiny

were I the place
to lay you down

. . .

wayward constellations ~

graces, home, light, love, promise, remembered us home, stars, truth

had you asked
I might have told –
might have willed my lips
to speak
to whisper of a future
not so far along were we
promise met
with something more –
a universe to save
pressed you to my heart
til I unwillingly
forgave
wayward
constellations
taking comfort with the stars
carved our names
as ancient flames
entrusted
to the dark

beneath a sky of ancients ~

closer now to heaven than the stars, courage, destiny, fate, home, love, memory, stars

come to me
to the fringe of dusk
when all I’ve known
is the way
to you –
where ne’er regret
is welcomed –
the velvet of his brow
his penchant
to distract
from all that matters
now

come to me
lay with me –
beneath a sky of ancients
lovers undecided
every one
breathe in me your story
grant my heart
the map –
faded lines
let these fingers bleed

come to me
a memory
come to me afraid
as proof of my good fortune
you might be
near as dawn approaches
with but a sigh
between
the shadow where you waited
come to me

. . .

stars we counted on ~

birth of eternity, knowing, light, love, lovers, silence, stars, still

we were lanterns
caught in webs –
sparkled
with the dew
a righteous moon
made jealous
by the dawn
flames where wishes
landed –
near to places
once we lay
silence
falling stars
we counted on

we were sparks
within the heavens –
seeking love
we would
become

. . .

this day ~

this day
of all others
this shift in the light
a sweet celebration
aligned with the night
I’m not much for promise
tears aren’t my style –
but as dark
became morning
I drifted a while
to far away summers
and sweet sunny days
when someone spoke softly
and someone remains
blessed by the memory
of a kiss
and a prayer –
of wishes made whole
by the stars

. . .

unsubstantial ~

always on my way, courage, days, distance, home, journey, life, love, miles, pilgrimage, stars, truth, witness, worth

what longing
might I best defend
as distance
unsubstantial
winding roads
lines across between
rivers
here I left my tears
forests I surrendered
a mile or two
beyond this best I know
time has folded over
the map that is my heart
til nothing
short of silence
feels the same
garnered by permission
to go
as once I came
before the dawn
an ageless earth –
endless virgin seas
countless intersections
stars to see me home
memories
to grace the days
between

. . .

fault of tides ~

how I wish
I were immune
to the rising fault of tides
to the shift that
breaks my rhythm
sets my heart adrift
to the strangeness
born of midnight
a voice inside my head
books I’ve long forgotten
lay open on my bed
that I would
this dream remember
like the first
I held of you
when tides were low
moonlight fell
against the pines –
as life I didn’t know
I didn’t know –
a part of me
mistaken for another
left behind
