Midsummer Night
A Cool breeze alluring you
to edge of the Ocean floor
As time comes closer to unveiling
clouds arouse by the sounds
of a violin stringing . . . more

I cannot
believe
that I am
here
without you.
For years
this house
has been
our home.
But
you are

And it's . . . more

When We First Met
Do you remember
the first time we met?
We stumbled
into each other
at the grocery store.
Stammering
our apologies
we introduced
ourselves.

Oh, for a heart that will look within
And not see this body degraded from sin.
My Lord has forgiven and forgotten my past
But the tell on my body will always last. . . . more

The house where I was born
Has been torn
Down now. The bricks and mortar
That gave us shelter
Are reduced to rubble and waste.
What the haste
Was or what the need
I do not know. They feed . . . more

My memories are
scattered pieces
blowing in the wind
some floating carelessly
others moving with purpose.
Some are solid and strong
taking root in my soul
like a tree
never swaying . . . more

MEMORIES
Memories.
They are all
that's left now.
And
Sometimes

I found myself buried in sand
head to toe;
Sand cuts, sand fleas
eating away at my body
as I suffocated in despair;
But you washed over me,
cleansing my wounds,
breathing . . . more

I know you are there
I know you are there,
On these steaming roads
And on the teasing hills,
Along the shore of hope.
Hand holding hand

Remembering it
Like it was yesterday
With the stiff necked father
And broken mother
And the lusty girl
From across the river
Sniffing around him
Like some damned cat
And mother saying not . . . more

Is this you in the wedding
Photograph? Yes. St Mark's church.
1951. Late June.
Your hair looks nice, and the dress
Looks fine. Not mine. It was the

Mother before . . . more

Maybe donate their pricelessness
Because they really reek of love forgotten
Once the very reason I exist
No smells remain, detergent hidden

Since he'd left, still that dullness
At dawn, the weak seep of light
Through the torn blinds, the brittle
Birdsong, and her spread out on
The bed, her arms . . . more

always green,
and how I played hide and seek
in the old barn,
the smell of fresh hay soft beneath me.
