SUMMER POEMS |  | |
Summer March
trees full
summer regale dance,
fireworks, baseball
happy hours,
closing down bars
oh sweet Saturday nights
last calls heralded,
walks under trees
past cement
parking garage
fumes, birds
blinking lights
amber, red
cars turn
pass, drive
faded tail lights
slowly gone out-ta sight
down Main Streets
everywhere in summer March
Summer Storm #1:
Wind twists tree tops circular
batches of water
heaved across open spaces
clouds and lightning merge
in roar
and fire out about.
Titans, gods, messengers and angels
run for cover
from blasts
that close your eyes
and bring premature darkness
to one of longest days of year.
Later full moon
will shine down on
fuller tree tops
that now enlarge themselves
spaciously moment by moment
right before the observant eye.
Summer Dusk in France:
Castillon de Saves Chateau
dusk settles in just short of nine bells
pastel violet sky fills itself
with pale shades
dance in ancient glass with
post impressionistic colors
neither here nor there
like mind set afloat
in nonchalance,
slow draft settles
in across floors
like day began.
perpetual motion
hardly noticeable....
like it should be.
Summer Rock Poem:
When no one watches,
all rocks
in the world
turn into jewels
when they kiss their
mother earth.
Late Summer French Winds:
Late summer French winds,
blew across mellow countryside
fierce lightening bolted up dark sky
thick wild jagged blasts
intense explosions.
French winds,
blew fast skies
faster and faster across frazzled countryside
black rain black night
intense watering.
French breeze,
soft and delicate wakens
morning, one day closer to autumn
French winds, won't let us forget they
still return by their choice, whenever.
Vernal Love Poem #1:
In quiet pause
in between raindrops,
white dogwoods dance dainty steps,
bounty of tree lilac bouquet
define territories,
magnolia blossoms lay in deep green grass,
quartz rocks glisten on perfect day of grey
today in quiet pause
in between heartbeats
white birch spring loose in warm wind.
Rock walls painted with glacier strokes
millenniums ago
at this very moment tell their
set in motion story from long ago.
Vernal Love Poem #2:
vernal harmony, free-loose in every leaf,
of every tree and bush; all
given into itself
metamorphic
spontaneous
new taste,
command-less, mindless beauty,
without mirrors, cosmetics,
shrinks or
words,
no afterthoughts, consequences,
responsibilities, awards
parades, or holidays,
not even a hello,
thank-you or
good bye.

SPRING POEMS |  | |
Weather Thoughts, June 11 Spring 2004:
Missed eclipse
but living Spring every day.
Spectacular weather! Gorgeous hot,
intense thunder & lightening. Pretty deep
skies, cloudless, no humidity. Wild roses
all out this week and worth drive
from anywhere. 'Been venturing out
driving country dirt roads and to top
it off it's first nights of the return
of summer fire flies!
Uninvited Late Spring Storm #1.
dark, uninvited, late spring storm
bends limbs
uproots trees starved for water
floods fields,
thundering voices won't give in to pass by,
arguments and cracked lightning
welds direct strikes
from sky to earth
splits apart black seams of night
halts human electricity in its tracks,
scares us into
who we are,
might be,
or
don't
want to be.
Uninvited Late Spring Poem #2.
through night creeks roar past windows
deep in woods of our consciousness,
intersect caldrons of energy,
humidity races away,
dew uplifts itself
un-veils sorrow streaming in upward flight,
creeks rush
bird songs return,
crickets and leap frogs call out
time waits
for lovers to accept
and acknowledge seams of night,
to walk again in honey suckle,
give each other smiles
and make love in fresh morning
of clear open spaces,
in break
between next big storm. |
QUNINTET OF NATURE POEMS |  | |
QUINTET OF NATURE POEMS #1.
Stuck in cold
chatham of
disbelief,
thrice used tea bag
drained like memory
gone.
Quiet and primitive
at fingertips,
bonfire
may move
spirits out of
doldrums,
sensual recharge,
as nothing makes sense
at tries to make sense out of
nada.
QUINTET OF NATURE POEMS #2.
sparks
scatter
upward
burst
into gravity
chorus of hiss
harmony blaze
rose pattern-less
avant ensemble
spontaneous
rhythm-less
beats
and heated
embellished
conductor-less
destiny of no
destiny.
QUINTET OF NATURE POEMS #3.
woods come
alive
with silence,
stars want to be
so free
to make
some melody,
trade south for north,
or maybe
east for west,
hypnotize flames
go meet full
harvest moon happiness,
flames suck
life out of
civilization.
QUINTET OF NATURE POEMS #4.
moon
sneaks
thru forest trees,
climbs
along leafless limbs
dances
across yard
into garden
passed for gone,
but alive they
become
to hold night
shine.
QUINTET OF NATURE POEMS #5.
no dramatics here,
just life
dripped out of itself
for pleasure of one,
devils ride dragons
and angels ride vipers
into dark cold night,
naked limbs
burst with red hot massage,
fire challenges coyotes
and shooting stars
'try to get closer
to this universe of one'
while all unknowns
come forth under
cover of darkness,
halt you in your tracks
of reason.
