The stream (all workshops)
There are those who sit
at the edge of the dance,
watching the whirl
of the living
Hub and spoke
Spoken wheel
The dance lingers
in their hearts
Years beyond
the fiddlers last draw.
Lords of the air
keeping the peace
when in the right hands
dread war may cease
Lords of the air
masters of war
wreaking untold damage
an end we deplore
Lords of the air
beauty unfurled
sleek, fast and deadly
when set on the world
Lords of the air
dangerous foes
you'll pray for your life
before one of those
Lords of the air
generations of peace
destructive yet docile
if warfare should cease.
I found comfort with this ring,
Peace as I hear my soul sings;
An eternity of song for you and I,
Every time I feel you nearby.
Nothing compares to how much,
I get electrified by a single touch;
Even when you are not around,
You are in this ring to I am bound.
This ring is my profession of our love,
This ring is my protection from above,
I commit to you again as a year’s past;
Vow to you and God, assured to last.
… with this ring.
She could hardly see
her palms
in outspreading mountain fog,
while she was breaking her echos
through rocky hills
of a laugh
with a louder one.
He remembers of her,
she was running all over the sea surface
like a little witch
laughing and calling him:
''Look at me!''
and he was glad to see her happy
beneath the half moon light.
A Virgin Island vacation that never ceases
in the memory of a poor country girl
a life of luxury sailing the seven seas
In grand dining rooms she feasted
adorned a natural style of hair curls
a virgin island vacation that never ceases
Here are islands that many would never see:
and experience worth more than pearls
a life of luxury sailing the seven seas
The rocking ship roar at high speeds
toward the next island turn
a virgin island vacation that never ceases
Untouched Beauty
Thistledown pearlescent skin
a concubine with nature’s grin
taught a desperate heart to sin
and relish its desire
innocence began to flee
faster than the honeybee
while this fool on bended knee
tasted liquid fire
When in melancholy
the heart explodes
like a volcano
such words emanate
with love intermingled with sorrow
who knows of a tomorrow
life simply
ebbs
away
day after day
till comes another
happier day
It is evening, the night is here
and we are all inside. A dog
barks.
Dolores' dress is
too dirty she says
though
I see no dirt on it.
It is stained in blood,
see it signor?
here and here she point
by running her hand along
the hemline.
I see no blood
as I search
the white pleated dress.
Seriously Dolores? Blood?
Si Senor Jim from the men
on the road, they have filled
the road with their blood.
We ride the earth around the sun,
A journey we all share
As winter comes I think about,
the end of another year.
A new beginning beckons,
Look forward tho' you fear.
Spring is like a flower which,
Blooms to bring another year.
In the fullness of this journey
That brings us all so near,
Summer is the apex.
Applaud another year.
Autumn is the season
When dreams become as one.
Rise up and let us dance,
In the last rays of the sun.
quickening we pace
an antidote sought
the shelter shell
a mask replaced
forgotten city
diamond dusted
broken like the cage
untrusted
the old quick wounds
defenses tame
taste thirsty fears
ghost seasons cold
embolden
enfolding
rise
like walls
a mist across the
distances falls
wall away ruin tryst
forgotten heart
enclave
enslave
the knocking in the
dead fall din
the darkness morning
like a fist
