nearusnow

the fields
blown whiter now
than first with winter squall
I wonder how they miss us here –
do they miss us
most of all

when evergreen
their branches brush
against an endless night
do they know
how hard the coming back
to a place within the light

an ancient star
once wished upon
when held beneath a worried chill
I wonder how it is
I knew –
how I would miss you
still

. . .

grotto

in the swell
of a moment
forever one light
was the cool
morning mist
to my face
a lifetime
surrendered
as ages to stone
arms
like a breath
pulled around
here I am
held as forever
loosened to rhyme
so sweet now the dew
neath my feet
stars falling soft
as the last time
I wished
was the first
to remind me
of love

. . .

stillandnot

rebel wind
of beauty bursting
dusty scars
defy the day
slipped beyond
the need for wisdom
quiet took not time
to pray

for better harvests
soaking rains
nights to faith we laid
naked as the ring
beneath the bark

celebrate
the empty fields
disgruntled grace of thunder
of briar
sans the memory of bite
of teardrops tapped
along the roof
rusted tin and rainbow –
visions saved
for grieving
another morning
storm

. . .

warmer ~

fadingthe butterflies
are drifting –
as are stolen winter wings
were fated by a snowflake
left to die

northern
their progression
higher mountains
richer wines
tho journeyed now
to blossoms not quite bloomed

will doom the flame
from flaring –
the moth to circling
round about
in seasons
without home

who shall say
of these to loss
we might have saved them when
before we gave of lives
we didn’t know

gathered
as a blue bouquet
in treetops of the clouds
swimming out
beyond the evening fog

folded
 to a hurried prayer
spoke before the sun
left to grieve
our souls –
another dawn

. . .

gypsy to yellow ~

I walked down the bed
was yesterday’s rising –
the creek sits in stillness
ten feet below
and waits for redemption
a sky filled with shudders –
tears bringing heaven
to save us again
falling the sorrows
stained in the passing –
burning my feet
with the pangs of goodbye

thirst keeps me begging
dreamed of an ocean
and seas without ceasing
I go there each night
as the paper is peeling
and windows sweat demons
crickets come in
by the way of the floor
nightbirds are crying
faith to willows
don’t fall (I will catch you)
before the moon rise

slow now the dancer
of gypsy to yellow –
as petals are folded
in prayer to the day –
deliver us whole
from the heat of your passing
drown us in loving
tears to our pain

Author’s Note: Yesterday, Nashville was the hottest place in the United
States, breaking a previous record from 1952. It was 109. When I left out
for lunch (even though I parked in the shade), my car was reading a temp
of 122. The earth cracks beneath the stare of the sun.
