crystal showers
heal my mouth
wash away the taste of fruit
give me dreams of
strange desire
fresh
and new
like lily buds

Dwell in Possibility
“When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe than ours,
a friend to man, to whom thou sayst,
‘Beauty is truth, truth beauty,’– that is all Ye know on earth,
and all ye need to know.”
– John Keats “Ode to a Grecian Urn”

Moondance
stars
flower from the glowing moons
that dance to rhythmic beams of white
In a glimmer, they embrace
the pulsing beat of space
and time

Tokyo Drift
slowly moving
through each other,
dreaming of eternity

“Tokyo Drift” by Chris Fink:
With Shades of Heaven in her Eyes
drapes drawn
in peach and white
caress my lips
and shield my eyes
from grisly hell
and growing gloom
til all the world’s
a flowery room

The Life of Flowers
“But flowers distill’d,
though they with winter meet,
Leese but their show;
this substance still lives sweet.
–William Shakespeare
“But he who dares not grasp the thorn
Should never crave the rose.” – Anne Bronte
” A weed is but an unloved flower” –Ella Wheeler Wilcox
“The violets in the mountains have broken the rocks” -Tennessee Williams
Of Lust and War
In the orchids
lies a warrior
gleaming like a ruby torch
come to me
in violent whispers
I will satisfy your thirst
– Angie

The Wilted Muse
silver seeds of inspiration
drowning in a sea of grey
the keenest eye
is blind to lights
that swim
across its face
and back
