Contemplation

Contemplation finds itself when moods have stormed away, and I can sit alone and grey upon a cold and cloudy day. I watch the sky slow-rotate round while I wait, lowly, on the ground. So calm when all my fire’s spent I feel the pulse where blood has went from heart to head and back […]

Watching…Working

High above the astral atoms of the vaulted, twinkling sky, dwelling in celestial star-shine, heaven’s Son the yes and why. Past the swirling of the eons, galaxies of spiral worlds to a blue and lonely planet, sparkled green in ocean swirls, bends the thought of heavenly wisdom, ever draws the Maker’s eye. – There walks […]

Darkly Autumn Comes

The boughs bend slightly low. Clustered treefall clothes the eves. The barking dog seems far away and someone close is burning leaves. A whisk of autumn apple air, a dash of brashness bold and spare, presumptuous crow lands in the field …and looks for corn. – – – Photo by Yuri Yuhara: https://www.pexels.com

Spockled

Spliced atop a ladder-pole taller than the tree haughty head with pointed ears looking down on me. Specked with speckles archipelago of freckles set on wobbly stilts. What planet did you leave for here? Why did you choose this weirdly sphere to be our favorite jungle deer?

Elephanti

When the elephant arrived,  stomping like a wrinkled pillar, did the other animals run blaying for the hills? Or did they turn around, in pique—or mild irritation— at such a noisy customer?

Stars Also

The umph of un-fomred umphisness lay upon the nill. a vapid vacuum all unfilled a dark and dreamless void. – Silent strains, then hint of sound– floating notes of thrill; sparks of dotted light from naught harmony and trill. – Gathered up from never-grown atoms, meaning, skill: an open sear of flamishness the flash of […]

Fall Fire

The sharpened breeze of coming night that blows (a bit) in frozen bite seems warmed (like life) beside the blaze of friendship, fire, and sparkling grace. So here I rest while colored leaves whirl down to die by living trees.
