Sagebrush will whisper
when a trout sparkles rainbow,
jumps up to the sky.

My Window

A dream is moonlight dancing on
a steady breeze of secrets
always grinning.

Words formed in my mind,
spoken filled a vision of
a quiet whispered dream.

Night breeze of dream
voices float through the window,
whisper all night long.

A.m.

moon beams turned to streaks of
morning during dawn there
came a shower
hiding sunshine
early.

Mist 9 of 29 Memories

Red at my window in rain.
Concealed in a veil of gray mist.
Cracked smiles I see floating in pain.

Escape

Chill factor zero,
hot acid hell.
A nude in my room burns a
hole through my plan for
a quick, easy flight.

Beige

Troopers click their teeth at
the lady hides her necklace
from a threatening storm of
scathing, grinning dogs.

Coffee @ Motel Window

747 light
moving
cross the sky.
Silent,
frantic dancing of a
plastic cup on Interstate.
Chasing metal monsters in the night.

Sun

over ears of a coyote who's
running through sage.
mouse in arroyo is
watching for rain.
sky hawk strafes
lizard now
basking

in sun.
