Give Shapes To Music

Standard

*
my favorite occupation
has been that of
listening to silence

to give shapes
to music singing
with my hands

on top of the colors
that lay already there
to tiptoe in-love

slowing down
my responses
to evade darkness

into the beauty held
inside as the harmony
viable all around

Words

Standard

may my smile
be forever loving
as I play in life

new roles and adjust
words as a tight dress

may wind clothe me
forever changing
just that loving smile

let that one survive

as the steps behind the stage
before the curtains rise fretful
yet filled with anticipation are
these morning poems coming
to me out of silence – eager

Poetry From The California Notebooks

Standard

*
the sun rests
on my hair on a
winter afternoon

hours fleeting
rushing into the
calm evening

not daring to
go inside subtracting
myself from grace

I keep my head down
bowed as I write between
letters my emotions

Places From The California Notebooks 2015

Standard

*

poems come
as I walk

movement inspires
just as mental stillness

more that gut
wrenching rejection

poems come
as I walk and I do

not stop ever
pad out and up as

a mirror to my face
I write looking inside

I well know the path
outside trampled on

it so very often
it may look crazy

it may look maniac
it’s poetry flowing

breath keeping me
(alive)

California Notebooks, 2015

Standard

*

I recon I could be
creative as the sun
everyday making

enchantments new
shadows new patterns
filling up infinite palettes

it moves slowly
waltzing around
we a revolving object

apparent stillness
for a never
ceasing creativity
