I walked in
lacking expectation.
But there you were,
finally,
looking in my direction.
I needed to see into
your clouded window,
recognize who sits
on your dusty throne.
When our eyes met,

stole it from a mysterious place
pink and hidden
and dropped it into a sterile plastic jar

I press the memory of you
against my creased brow,
leaving a shadow stain
that will not fade.
I spread the essence of you
across my skin
recalling simplicity
of desire and flight.

Transience
A rose, a candle, and
A single smile
Are all alike
They're just for awhile
But just for awhile

They mean so much more
Like a single tear

The knowledge I found in your eyes old woman
stripped me of my mortal flesh
laying me bare to the heavy winds
scented with the blood of my ancestors
who were lost in the madness of generations
I cried . . . more

I'd turn to the left, I'd turn to the right
I'd get insults about my voice, or my height.
The problems keep coming; there is no end
Seeing so many, not knowing who's a friend.

I asked the dawn: "Where is the dewdrop that wet my lips last night and was suddenly gone before the sunrise?"
The dawn smiled: 'It's in the lightness of breezes and fragrance of flowers." . . . more

Sharp cigarette smoke,
Crammed tables and chairs,
Shrill sounds of an untuned piano,
Raucous jokes and then Uncontrollable laughter, -
Raw desires unruly . . . more

When life is your muse
You are inspired every day
When life is an odyssey
You learn everyday
You pen down your fears
On a gloomy day
And paint a lovely picture
Spreading colors . . . more

You're beautiful, pure light
You're luminous, so strong
Inside and out
You carry me
Endlessly
You're tall
And dark
And yet the brightest soul I've seen
Your smile

It's in the love and laughter
Of playing children
Flowers, pets
In hugs and smiles
The sun that sets
All free and widespread
Heaven bound
In parks and . . . more

Gentle stranger
There is only One you can always be sure of
But I bid you stop awhile
And let me give you what I can
I make no promise
But that I will try to know you

And with it brings a sweet kiss
Of bright remembrance.
Rainstorm do your all
To nourish parched environs
With your moisture rare.

Lonely croaking pleas . . . more
