There’s mystery in your history Too much attraction to resist reaction Gracious but dangerously flirtatious Your scent is my torment — We talk, then in a laugh you mock Something I said, my face turns brick red The dawn’s light is the ending night Much sharing, it’s about caring — The stars dance, I saw … More When I Look Into Your Eyes
The wind in the trees In the blush of a flower The sun on my face You have a healing power — Not broken, out to sea I washed up on the beach You helped heal this drifter Not even realizing what you teach — I saw you in the sky Clouds spelling your name … More You Are Always With Me
Penetrating winds engulf the soul Stripped bare to my essence No hiding, completely visible I am humble in your presence — Your eyes ask to lower my mask Trying, I cannot answer your question Words wedged deep, speechless Inside, my heart holds a confession — Seasons segue into memories We become a potent blend Each … More Humble
Maybe it’s me, or perhaps it’s she Through the snow and interference Every night at the stoke of one Her ghostly image makes an appearance — She has a lonesome, disembodied tone Climbing down from my dream The sand still coating my blurry eyes At six she disappears back into the stream — She arrives … More Test Pattern Girl

A retreat to recalibrate Getting to know me The stillness is my song Even my shadow is carefree Do not fear aloneness Embrace it openly Reconcile the musty past History is your eternity This respite is a turnabout Along an unwritten journey Breathing in the spectral day Threading together each memory I’ve wandered and lived … More Homebody
Every moment belongs to you To soar or to disappear from view Each grain of sand is your time Every step an opportunity to climb The clock hands travel in a loop Singular, not part of any group Time etches memories on your face No other matter could fill your space The star in your … More Your Moment
No day is like today, one of a kind It arrives full of color and aspiration A runway for dreams to catch the wind Take flight, admire this creation — Gears of the universe turn like clockwork The main spring ticks with no warranty Would anyone notice grinding to a halt? Tomorrow’s reality has no … More A Day Like No Other
Retirement is a whole ‘nother universe. Roughly two months in, it feels I’ve undertaken a journey with no idea where I am headed. That is not an awful thing, just not how I envision this part of my life. My decision to retire was made during a tumultuous year, where the landscape changed around me. … More Retirement: 60 Days In
Burnt orange sunsets Faint smell of familiarity lingers A hint of electricity airborne Strolling, linked by our fingers — Breathe in and savor her scent She laughs, and my frown lines remain Plenty of grey and freckles Gradually time becomes a binding chain — No matter, life burns inside out Feeling are sharper and sweeter … More Older Love
