Unseen Worlds
On trade winds of time they travel by light
Their voices float on sound-lit beams
They fly just past our muted sight
On prism blessed transparent wings
A voice as soft as a fledgling dove
Breath as sweet as an angels love.
If sought with mortal eyes
They are masters of disguise
And forever will they elude
For only with the heart and soul
May the fairy world be viewed.
Once you've seen the fairy realm
You'll never disbelieve
The stories told in ancient times
Of kingdoms once perceived.
Be faithful to the mighty oak

Earthly Reflections
We've over farmed the Sacred Earth.
Sold her beauty to the highest bidder.
Traded Her future for what?
We've almost left her barren.
The sucking sound of greed,
Consuming her very soul.
But its only a matter of time,
Until she will again be whole
We've over farmed the money tree too.
The value of exchange once a sacred bit of bread.
Or warmth to heal the family.
Or the wool from which to spin our thread.
Life sustaining items of meaning.
Have been perverted into,
Something meaningless.
Home is where the heart is.
Not for speculation.

Synchronicity
The synchronicity of life
The follies of our youth
The wisdom of the ages
In sentiment and in truth
The wars of culture clashes
The sting of rituals
Has taken the bliss of innocence
Leaving a canyon of pitfalls.
Watch them wander as they run
Searching life for love, for fun,
And searching the darkness
For the light, for the sun,
Leaving their hearts all undone
Take me with you as you fly.
Past the mountains to the sky.
In that moment I shall die.

A Sister's Promise
My brother full of fire
Living life with wild desire
Why do I seem to be so often
The object of your Ire?
I'm not stupid and I'm not crazy
I'm not cruel and I'm not lazy
I'm confused, its all so hazy
Moving through the fog this way.
He is screaming at me now
But it's not at me, I know some how
He's screaming at those who hurt him
Those who beat him and deserted him
Those who abused and defiled him
I just want to heal his pain
I will not allow our Kinship to be slain
Over words misunderstood or said in vain.
But all I can do is cry

Pele's Song
Pele's soul made of fire
Flowing lava ever higher.
To the shores of desire.
Fire meets the water
on the shore of life.
The Sea becomes the husband
of this Earthly wife.
With this union
Comes new birth
Of new islands
On this Earth.
For mankind an earthly dwelling
From Her inner core is swelling.
Into life and land above.
Goddess of creation
A cosmic kissed sensation.
Of terra firma Mother Love.

Revelations
Revelations
The conversations in my mind
They have a brave new life
Of hope and dreams of happiness
Releasing schemes and common means
And letting go of strife
Love for God has become
My single grand obsession.
And in His Light I see my life
Unfold in great progression.
There can not be one tiny doubt
Of this spiritual progression.
I will not cave for I am brave
Rejecting all regression.
My thought evolves from human kind
To a spiritual succession.
No need to find myself tied up

Lost at Sea
My sisters ashes were scattered at sea today
I cry an ocean of tears
In my sadness there is no comfort
I am lost
Alone with only my own tears for company
No one cares in the end
Her best friend too fearful to stand up for her
To frightened to see the tubes and respirator
I think that my life has been a ruse
High ideals that make me the loser
All just head in the clouds ideals
And like the clouds they appear to have form
But on closer inspection they disappear
My life has been written in disappearing ink
No one will remember
No one will even care
I am numb
I am none
A big zero in the life number
Someday I will be adrift on sea foam green like my sister

Forest Magic
I've stood here for a thousand years
the wind my breath, the rain my tears
My skin is bark, the leaves my hair,
From here I can see everywhere.
My wings they span the universe
The Cosmic tide of ebb and flow
Like graceful birds in joyful flight
And crystal dreams of purest snow.
The Fox tickles his way
around my roots,
'The food is all down here', he says
'You cannot see, you are too tall!
Your leaves don't touch the ground 'til Fall!
Everything worthwhile escapes your notice...'
But the Eagle,
nesting there high on my brow
can tease the wind with his feathers somehow...

Time Travelers of Darkness
Outside the court house there is a photo
A picture of three only it isn't three
Outside there wakens one in the canyon
Who sees the sun in the light of your eyes
Standing in your tower you return
century after century
Time traveler from the depths of terror
Your legacy is yours alone
And when they walk to the road and see
There can't be another so beautiful
But the planned and the deemed are free
And the smirks on the faces of the wise
Will give their hollow hearts away every time
Don't tell too much or else you will be walking
Back down that devils canyon into the abyss
And that long road to nowhere is a road well traveled
For the souls of darkness of the father of the son

Laramidia
There is a great divide
Of the states both blue and red
The dinosaurs in days of old
Our books do say are dead.
In the land of Laramidia.
What's that you say
They're still alive this very day?
And still can't find their merry way?
In the land of Laramidia?
These Jurassic bores
And political whores
Blind to societies atrocities
Have so much fun in store.
So sad for us
Who gave our trust
In the land of Laramidia.
They see the world
