April
spring flutters in
flowers bloom flamboyant
the robins
will not be denied
there is no end to the wide open blue
in April
with you
with you

Flamingo
dearest darkness
you are not the lack
of shining day
of shining light
such soft sanctuary
look
how the gods flamingo
with clouds
electric
oh music
we are all
lovers
this life
this poetry of souls
calling us
from destiny’s distant shore

Capri
for the dance
of life
solarized souls
as hummingbirds
touch lightly
touch deep
oh
just to breathe
to just breathe

Spring

Red Roses in the Snow
torn hem
Victorian dress
lace
crystal
leather bound
scent
surrey
hasting past
frozen lake
winter’s breath
melancholy
embers
clandestine
touch
this love
there were
roses
red roses
in the snow

February
so quiet are you
so patient
serene fields with creeks suspended
ready now your house
for nature’s blessed creatures
soon stir
our slumbering earth
awakes

artist -Eugène Grasset
Grace
should the moon find me
under this winter sky
remembering the mercy
of you in this life
a grace granted
so soon denied
come gentle night
close my eyes
come to me lover
close my eyes
jk
artist -Marc Chagall
