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

A Poem ... She Watches

She Watches

Blue sky
Yellow leaves
Waves of amber
Golden sheaves

Flying Vees
Heading south
Escaping winter's
Hungry mouth

Time flows
Endless stream
Every moment
A waking dream

She watches
From above
Memories drift
Unending love.

A Poem ... Silent Sound

Silent Sound

Laughed and talked
Loved and cried
Moments flow
Life's sure tide

Instances etched
Precious jewels
Sunny days
For giddy fools

Dark skies
Pregnant rain
Wind accents
Lingering pain

Barren trees
Frozen ground
Memories stir
Silent sound

A Poem ... In My Heart

In My Heart

Fields of flowers 
Sheaves of grain 
Blackened clouds 
Pending rain 

Birds float
Hanging there
Immobile sculptures
Without a care

Memories float 
Gentle kiss 
Summer nights 
Tender bliss 

God weaves 
Human art 
Ever etched 
In my heart.
