A Poem ... Cottage

Cottage

Grey skies
Golden trees
Winter’s breath
Haunted breeze

Lonely hill
Stands aloof
Rock solid
Living proof

Winter cottage
Empty nest
Ancient soul
Eternal rest

Lovers meet
Higher plain
Souls dance
Together again

A Poem ... Stands Alone


Stands Alone

Weathered barn
Standing fast
Years upon years
Built to last


Fields golden
Waving health
Harvest bounty
Untold wealth

Dark clouds
Burst above
Thirsty earth
Drinks the love

Happy man
Stands alone
Life’s lessons
Still unknown

A Poem ... Fog of a Dream

Fog of a Dream

Wisp'd away
Fog of a dream
Life journeys
Meandering stream

Familiar port
Angel song
Floats away
Gone too long

Yearning heart
Fills the space
Slowing now
Marathon pace

Lover's touch
Spans eternity
Resting now
on you and me.

A Poem ... Second Birth

Second Birth

sunlight streams
through wooded glade
vivid dreams
in leafy shade

sacred space
devoid of sound
God’s face
looks around

love knows
every chart
warmth flows
to frozen heart

hope lives
in the earth
daylight gives
a second birth

A Poem ... My Trial


My Trial

Smiling cherub 
Lovely child 
Tangled hair 
Eyes blue wild 

Friend to all 
Playground queen 
Laughter bubbles
Jokes unseen 

Untold wealth
In her smile
She’s my daughter
And my trial
