Sing me long! Sing me high! Joyous seas! Burning tide! Leave me rolling – Leave me free! Waves of light, rapturous seas! The joyful coming, the joyful going - Racing light and secret black - Always leaving and arriving - Reflection shows you what you lack - Highest light of crescent waning -… Continue reading “Long and High – the Night Song” – Poetry

A light sits in the labyrinth Of delicate shape and simple mind, Flickering in its endless dance, The gem of eternity fair. Its walls are high, The sky a steel gray - Twist. Turn. Forward. Back. Corners. Curves. A place to rest. A place to hide. A place of joy precedes a place of… Continue reading “A Labyrinth Of Mind” – Poetry
Hail and fire, winds and dust Tremble before You Depths of oceans, peaks of mountains Submit to You Lions and doves, dragons and men Bow before You Day and evening, evening and day Ruled by You.

The challenge drew me to the past, To ugly thoughts revealed at last. I passed through an… Continue reading “Just Like Me” – Poetry
Stand atop a mountain Death and peril far below And feel the inner calling Of the fire and the snow.

In fear I tremble – dark of night - The racing terrors holding sway - Disturbed by images bold and bright - Cowering, praying for light of day. A friend I have, far off in space - A palace of moon beams and feathers abounds. Mind frozen still – words hastily vanish - Emptiness. Panic… Continue reading “Dear Friend” – Poetry
Reclined upon a tapestried throne Silence. Contemplation. A tangled web goes ‘round and ‘round Visions of restlessness plague me! As the Weaver Of Destiny Tallies the ties I have lost. A weaver skilled is she Wisdom burning in her myriad eyes The strands so different, yet the same. Why mourn the sacrifice? Where is the… Continue reading “Combing the Locks” – Poetry
