Say Words

Today
tomorrow
dont shut
down words

Love
withers
and dies
in silence
its only enemy

Say words -
a little drop of
hope
for loves garden
is communication



Blue Light

I saw you
in the blue light
All I missed
filtered through

I drove away
on a highway
Like leather
in the rain

O minus
drenched in meaning



Silver Goldfish Pond

I stepped on the goldfish
all in shiny ice
yet they swam away from
my little girl shoe

My brothers circled
in lazy bold bike time
waiting for Mom
to stop charming the local grocer
with her smile
and true ways

We all went home then
brothers ahead
diving and circling
for the two girls of their hearts



Across the Bridge

My heart waits
while the sun goes down
One by one the party people
have their fun
across the bridge

Still I wait while the lamps go out
I cannot cross this bridge without you
You finally appear in the shadowy night
with no light to guide the way

I go alone
as best I can
with hand on rail
feeling my way
into my life

Alone
