SONG OF SILENCE
Silence is the best song
Forever, I have heard.
The screaming buses on the roads
Weeping all day,
The uncompromising siren
Of the wayside . . . more

Colored valentines,
Friendly thoughts

Today I'm blue thinking of you
Because you're far away
So I search the sky and heaven on high
And then begin to pray
May your nights be delights . . . more

See the bright petals!
Peace accompanies their truth--
Sweet, fragrant flowers.

When the moon sails by . . .
When stillness prevails . . .
In the nighttime sky
A crash in the underbrush
Sketched lightly by snow
A red fox in downward throes
Pounces . . . more

Little girl
At play with pots and cups today;
A cook who puts her plates away—
Joy awhirl!
Little boy
At bat with eyes that strain to catch
The flight of white across the patch—
Swings . . . more

Close your eyes and see
Your friends as they used to be
Before life claimed them--
Drove them away from your side,
As it drove you far from them.
Listen to laughter,
The high pitched squeals . . . more

I am traveling in the wind of time
With a wing of hope,
That rises and sets
Again and again,
With unfailing regularity
Attaining nothing.

When you meet,
what do I treat,
a co-traveler has found,
in a lonely street.
When you smile,
eyes try to file,
these all moments,
and your style.
When you shy,
I begin to fly,
in the world of . . . more

An inviting time
Of gentle breezes
Beside a canal,
Feet dangling over
An ancient stone wall,
Hungry, eager ducks
Rasping their demand
For the bread you drop
Past your sun-warmed knees . . . more

Here in my lonely room
Where fingers tap out thoughts
I dream of an active place
Where deeds replace thoughts
Where mouths issue melodies
Where eyes tell me tales
Where legs jump for joy
At the . . . more

Resurrection , by Amy George
I don't remember
when you grew wings...
when they flared out
from your back
above the stab wounds
now only scars.
I just remember your . . . more

It doesn't matter who you are
Rocketman or superstar
When you've been hit by cupid's aim
Your soul's ablaze with passion's flame
Of love, desire, in swirling gyres
Of taste . . . more

When my lover sleeps
I dream of ocean mist
The tangy scent of moonlit moisture
Seeps through the breeze
Remnants of overcast oils
Still slick where we lay . . . more

boxer puppy
frolicks in winter grass.
Jelly-beaning practice today
assures perfection, and treats tomorrow.
Pleading eyes, and wrinkled forehead
melting all resistance . . . more

My heart beating
A sweet tattoo in time
As your presence expands my soul's

Crisp breeze of spring
Passes my place
By the river
And sings to me
Of life that is--
As heaven knows--
On water flows
It rustles plants
Whistles fine tunes
Brings to my eyes . . . more

How lovely you are
with your crooks and turns,
reaching high
into the bluest sky,
A perch for the
songbird's sweet serenade,
nature's loveliest playground.
Your age is showing; . . . more
