Frost on the Gate at Dawn

Right before the onset of light

From the morning thrust deep into the freeze of winter

Upon the gate is a frost

So delicate yet deep and full

That the gate locks in it’s down position

While the snow gathers around

To cradle the depth of cold

On the morning

Where the ices goes

Where the Road Turns in Shadow

Around the pine

Takes a toll on the road

Where the road turns to shadow

In the pines beyond the waters edge

Where the grass grows

And the leaves change their colors

Bright and spledid into the autumn night

Beyond the road lies

The hope of yesterday and the

Bright future of tomorrow

Take me where the road

Turns into the shadows dark

When the Horizon Learns to Breathe

Upon the horizon

I lean my life

To know the presence

Of what can turn

In a moment

From the one

To the many

When the horizon set in it’s way

Unleashes the sun

For the last light of the day

When the horizon learns to breathe

We learn to live with it

To go through the moments

And let go

Of what is holding us back

Threads of a Forgotten Sky

Woven together in weaves of grey

The clouds takeover the day

From one small nudge

To the highest stratosphere

And above

The threads that weave a forgotten sky

As the clouds lay low and catch your eye

Take heed in time

The sky will open again

And return

From way back when

The Silence Beneath the Waves

Right under the curl

Is the peaceful zest of the ocean

Lulling me into the full

Relaxation of water and furl

I hold my breathe deep

With a golden twirl

The silence beneath the waves

Is what keeps me going on

Conversations with the Unborn

A conversation that never took place

Under the wisdom trees of shade

That night and all of it’s light

Cast into the evening

Without a sight

The conversations with the unborn

Will bring warnings and news

Of the light on this world

Dimming in all of it’s

Hues

Beneath the Cedar’s Shade

Under the shade of the cedar tree

Growing grass light

In the summertime

As the sun gets caught in the leaves

That cast the shadow

Where I sit

Feeling the heat of the day

But the cool of the trees protection

From the world at large

My mind rests

Beneath the Cedar’s Shade

The Weight of a Whisper

Can words press on the weight

Of time and place

So hold the timbre of holding

The whisper in the ears of

Wildness

How we can learn from each other

In the full summer bloom

Late into the fall

The weight of a whisper

Can have a toll

On us all

Angels in the Silence

Beyond the sound

When all volume is turned down

The angels in the silence

Have mercy on those

Whose ears await the calling day

For the moments of tender

Sweet

And true love

Are upon us from above

So take heed to these angels

And give us the way

Forward

Cathedrals of Silence

The footsteps upon the granite

Tell me that the silence is only

In stillness

Stillness results in reflection

The only way of detection

To purge the soul

Of it’s own dirt

The Cathedrals of silence

Go calling for us to return

To come back and embrace

Stillness in a holy

Place
