Above all these titles



And
Beyond Heaven
is my joy
here on Earth

 Her feet the continents
 her heart  
   the twirling arms of stars

Super fidelity LP

Everything is to music
as Love is to Life
Listening quietly
to the sound of
words and not their
meaning 
to the sound of Love
and all the beautiful silence
between songs knowing with this
Love the music will never end
 .

In all the silence of forgotten things

In a sense we plant
our love each night
in soil and water
patient with our fears
In all the silence of
forgotten things

Soul first

I want
to swim in a river near
your smile
to find together the secret
passageway to the soft ruins

I want to crumble with you
into the universe

Disappearing Ink


Just day dreaming here
about the feelings
filling the pages
of my heart
As all the words disappear
in front of me
It's hard to read
when you're in love.

.


.

While I was falling

As I was thought
I could never be emptiness

the wind
momentarily
floats a leaf
as it falls I turn
and look up at the sky

As the heavens speak to the sky


Your Love
moves in me
like a shining stream
of silver stars
Speaking silently to my heart
as the heavens speak
to the sky

The baby oranges are almost
teenagers already!
This is a typical lovely florida
summer sky. The tree is in
the front yard and I'm going to
remove some of the dead wood
because it's hurricane season!
This is a picture from my
reclining cloud chair in the back yard

Lonely day



And so
I've saved my heart from rejection

and placed it in my chest
as though it were pressed between
 two pages of a book



 

* while putting in the song which took about a half hour because everything kept going wrong, I lost the text that accompanied what I wrote up top. It was about going back and reading a diary and thinking about changes.

Heres a nice mellow old song by King Crimson I got from youtube :


Two Take On Destiny

We breathe until we were one
together one each as the other
dancing faster than our shadows

as the sun dances
inside its own shadow
her gold heart bare
to the eyes of death

Her glitter thrown glows wide
rising high from the top of the sea
soft to touch and freely given
fertilizing glass winds filling into
corners

And Into Heaven
with wooden spools
a film shot between lives
lifts sailors once forgotten
above water as they fly
far from the sea.

The Light From Her Voice

What could dissolve me
of my beliefs so thoroughly
as a rain so fresh it glitters
eternally on my heart?

So moist
ethereal and radiant
a Lotus blooms in the sky!

The Sun with our heart


We
s t r e t c h
across heaven
painting the sky with our light
 a wondrous display
sprinkling hope through the night

And
carrying her planets
 shines the Sun with our heart
 bringing ever so gently
each day a new start

The Tale Of The Red Hippopotamus

What tales be told of the tails we hold,
held if only so briefly in the halls of our hearts


as thoughts wander
as the chimpanzees play
as passing strangers on their way

Ever unheard the supernatural giraffe's
gaffe? or been the acquaintance
to the tongueless cobra that whistled by
the light of day or been able to claim like me
you've actually seen the rare cry of the
red hippopotamus that you wished had
never gotten away
