Bereft of this tactile and tacit touching
There is only swirling.
And oh, clouds......see the furor and unfurled, whirling,
the flashing eyes and tears and wails
Failed, and failed and failed......
Where is Peace? Where is my Joy? Where is my Heart, reaching and reached, even now?
Where is the Calm amidst the Tumult?
Surely, the voice that calmed the Seas
Still Lives
And all that Death would bring
Amidst the Toil and Trudging,
Defiantly Lives,
Loving.
That man moves to the Stars
And cannot allow
Joy
Is a tragedy we have
Outgrown
Outlived
Ousted and
Made
Redundant and
Irrelevant.
The Caress that is of then and Now
that brushes tears gently
Rough squeezes Arm and
Misunderstood Silence
Notwithstanding, Bereft of Bridge,
Will
Still Sing.

Waves
And in the ebb and flow of moments, then and now,
There is kindness, remembered.
The stormed sky bursts lightning white and scorched,
Emitting yester-love, renewed and promising,
And all the rain that follows - the sweat and tears of years, trailing, comet-like -
The sighs of spring.
My love, I can but know of thy breath upon my throat, seeking,
All the sigh of Heaven's Air that blows across my skin in longing,
Feeling its being, moving with its moving, my hands stretching across the sky,
Alive - flexed pulse of digit dial and flourish scroll revealed,
Oh, rumble mumble of my Desire.
Thou art my Seeking.
Pour down upon my breasts thy Light and Dark, thy wet and Fire,
Thy Adoration and thy Completion,
Till I am Moan Made and Thine Only,
Lasting and Last,
Bested and Best,
Circled.

Oar Parcel
I had been in this dark so long, swirling about me like skirts,
Wings furled, hair curled, cringing and unswung
Furtive and fleeting under distant glimmers and smiles
Remembered.
Swathed so, I had almost forgotten myself amidst the
Moaning.
Sheet blizzards encased the sound and fury,
Until,
Bleating wildly
Life erupted in
Flame and Frost
Reimagined, and
I ,
Pierced by a shaft of fierce Glow
Awakened to a
Smoking husk of
Aged Self,
Side stepped and
Violet voiced,
Triumphantly live -
Defiantly Floating.
