The Lady of the Mountain

All cloaked in blues and mists,

And greens and grasses...

She feels the caress of your heart's leaping,

The joy innate which her blossoming beauty bestows....

And the cool refreshments of 'ahhhhs' sighed in her midst.

But to be fully imparted with her sweet pulsations,

You must bend now, along with her breezes...

As each blade of grass dances in shimmering seas,

With ecastatic summer's fragranced breeze...

And exhale along with her,

And evenutally lay alongside, in repose...

As the bridal veil of blanketing winter covers the warm blush,

Of the Lady of the Mountains...

Like some fluffy seed

I have been blown from my self rooted station,

To be transported

By the wind of His will...

A refraction of light

This rainbow of night

That surrounds your particular moon

Ice crystals in skies

You gaze with your eyes

At paled promises reflecting your gloom

Angel feathers fall now to earth

Dusting the waiting with new grace now seen

Each manifests in a crystalline flake

Each unique like the situation it covers

When all my friends

Like rainbow shells

Assemble on that sparkling shore...

full of hope on that fresh cement sidewalk homeward bound
stopping briefly at the local corner store
its the spring of 1969 and i can buy
chips for a quarter and chocolate for a dime
wax tubes filled with sugary pink water
giggling friends and exciting dreams
they are real aren't they? the childhood dreams of our hearts
friendships bloom innocent untainted by reality of status
and have or have not realities
landmarks such as schools, shops, hospitals and homes are new, shiny painted
hardworking families immigrant freshness
the world is your oyster
go find the pearl!!!!!!

PEACE ON EARTH
HEAVEN'S BIRTH

BRINGS DELIGHT

TO YOUR WINTER'S NIGHT

Yellow leaves blowing in backflips

'Crossing the dark pavement gray,

Some deliriouis circus of sunshine

'Neath fall's pale and fading soleil...

So long to the drama of youth
I long for the deep ochre days...
Of Autumn's display in rich hues
Robe of splendour on earth now there lays....

Something that was once pure starlight in your past

Has turned into the dark matter of your pain

A giant black hole of deep gravitational pull...

Let it go...

Your soul in this whirlwind

Sometimes reels with emotion

The upheavals of the world

All around you, near and far...

There is a Lover,

Unseen to your eye...

His presence is always,

And ever nearby..

AND THE DARK AND THE BLUE ICE AND THE ICICLES HANG

CROSS THE WORLD, GIVING NEW LIFE,

THE CHRISTMAS BELLS RANG...

MAKES THE NIGHT LIGHT SO ENDURING

MAKES THE HOPE RISE WITHIN OUR BREAST

PRECIOUS SEASON OF JOY GIVING

SOULS ABUNDANCE, SOULS AT REST...

For those yearning for Jesus....

So catch me a whisper

In beauty of pale light

Crisp sunlight of changing

From summer to fall
