In your heart you hold
an ocean of mystery
and it takes but a moment
to plunge into the currents.

Photo Prompt
Our initials are carved with
Passionate intent and
Are etchings
Into the wood
That now lays
down.
Passionate etchings of
Memories and it is there
That I find you, but
I find the best of you
Beyond my dreams.
It is there, beyond dreams,
that you
Always be
Deeply who you are.

each tender whisper
When each tender whisper leaves
your lips and lingers in the air like a star
you brighten the evening.

Found Myself
I found myself in another reverie,
craving the sensation of you while
my mind was lost in the moment.

Vigil of Understanding
In the night air, these are flecks
of light in the glow of the moon
surrounded by a vigil of stars.
I wonder if I will understand
everything I need.
I find a part of my face
in reflection, and
I find my silhouetted figure
upon the ground in a shadow
and these are a few answers
in reflections and shadows.

Collecting Fireflies
Every night I searched and
and collected in my heart
these passions for you
that illuminated, like
collecting fireflies
in a crystal lantern
on a summer’s night.

Our Star
Our resplendent star danced
away from the cosmic, nebular womb
to the songs of brother and sister stars.

Under the Canopy
Under the canopy,
beneath a myriad of clouds
let us whisper
about the meaning of the earth.

Shaded Haiku
Shaded, the cool earth,
shorn grass blades near tall flowers,

Key Lime
When whispers couldn’t count,
Dream for a while:
Brimming bottles of rosa vino
We could have drank on
The Beirut
Glasses filled by heaven,
These clouds are able.
It’s your incense, my candles,
The Oriental rug, and your
Smooth leather sandals
As you dance and shrug.
Every day takes more,
I take all I can stand
I bled on the concrete and I wish I felt.
I know the sunrise and sunset comes
In the frozen land, but it’s here I melt.
Your spot an inch below your ear,
My favorite song for you,
Our funny faces
We know in the dark
Sitting on a bench in the park.
I sit and sip on key lime soda,
So, I wait for the dawn
To reach my home. The quiet lights in the sky
They sing late this song as I lay me down in the
frosty lawn.
Poem from the book Beneath the Dreaming Tree

^CoRe^
^CoRe^
At the core of my heart
there is no gravity,
everything is free to fly.
At the core of my heart
there is no time,
all is a version of now.
At the core of my heart
there are no more flames to burn another,
now there is phosphoresce aurora borealis.
At the core of my heart
there are moments of silence,
harmonized by music, a capella and conversation.
At the core of my heart
there is the flavor of the stars
in all that I savor.
At the core of my heart
there is the aroma of clouds
in all that passes.
El centro
En el centro
de mi corazón
no hay
gravedad,
todo es libre
para volar.
En el centro
de mi corazón
no hay tiempo,
todo es una
versión de ahora.
En el centro
de mi corazón
no hay más
llamas para quemar a otra,
ahora hay una
aurora boreal fosforescente.
En el centro
de mi corazón
hay momentos
de silencio,
armonizada por
la música y la conversación.
En el centro
de mi corazón
hay el sabor
de las estrellas
en todo lo que
saboreo.
En el centro
de mi corazón
hay el aroma
de las nubes
en todo lo que
pasa.
