Night Alone
A bed mourns
The loss of shape
Empty shadow of you in the moon’s oblique light

The Murder of Love
There is a murder
In the theft of love
Dreams, scents and memories
All fall victim

Unwanted Company
Anger is a fidgety partner
Jealousy a sticky companion
Loneliness an enduring mistress

Slow
Slow
Slow food
Slow passing
Slow love
Time is slowed
Time is consumed
Time is digested and time is expelled

My Wound
In this garden
I tend my wound
Prune my memories
Water my loves
And travel countless miles
Beneath a careless sun

Main Street on Moorestown
Gas-lit and lost in
Time
A Ghost horse
Hitched to the watering post
Neighing
Belching
Anxious to gallop
I sip my espresso
And dream

Ellipse
Wind to skeleton
Travel to stillness
Stream to pond
Path to trail
Sea to wind
Root to leaf
Leaf to light
And it passes
Moon, planet, star, soul

Daughters (Anabella and Brittany)
She is my light
Both wave and particle
Though a rainbow betrays
Her myriad colors
No prism exists to
Penetrate her sun
Clouds part
As she awakens
Dawn

Anabella In The Morning
An embrace
Simple and earnest
Innocent and new
The smell of dreams in her hair
Hair black as crow
A sunny day beckons
Mourning dove coos
Life begins anew

Anabella Snowflake
Born in January's soft snow
Drifting and dancing
Against the sky
Alone in her beauty
Unique
One of a kind
Falling amongst others
Laughing
Mad hair
Eyes black as truth
And settles on our life
