a haze 
hovers over the island
two rivers divided
pouring out to the sea.
a blaze
smoke signals sent skyward
a vanishing whisper
resonates from the watcher.
fate
of soft lips and closed eyelids
twin echoes collided
too close to remember
the face
all alight with a glimmer
a sensitive shiver
the gleam of a lover.
fade
out of touch with the inner
cast out the swimmer
carries onward through the water.
the hurt inside
has an end in sight.
the heart untethered 
drifts over the water.

Silvering

My skin changes with the season 
paled and softened, 
Gently weakened

Child I did not protect you
There was a shadow in the shelter of my wing 
Tried to build you up While everything was crumbling..

My dreams change with the seasons 
The dreams of yesterday 
Fluttering away
To a warmer place.

Child 
Can you forgive me 
You were there tumbling 
But my hands were tied 
By grief
Wish I could 
Wipe the tear away
 Wipe the hurt away 

But you've gone away 
Now there is nothing
All I created 
All I have given 
All I am feeling 
It is nothing

Child

Soft, in the eye 
away
beyond

the last star had fallen
into the fade

But still
an inner world enlaced 
a still-beating heart in the hand

branches woven into a crown
anointed and then eclipsed

beyond all that
I soften my gaze

roots have woven into the ground
buried with a flightless wish

beyond it all
I soften my gaze

But 
Still with the inner world enlaced
A still-beating heart
In the hand

Dryad's Dream

sun falls asleep and i wait for the moon to take her shape.
under the starlight i feel the love come through again.. remember , when i close my eyes.

Starfall

A hole opens up in the sky ; an angelic alien language pours through .
