Hope While the Dragon’s Awake

Spirit of th’ Earth
let us invocate

grace Her with gentle strokes
for purring comfort in Her song

inspiring floodwaters to don
their rainbow mists
into songs of encouragement

not for the morrow
when This Moment will do
to be ours to dream

Farewell for Now (from the Time Capsule)

last light to sail upon thy orbs
shall be my face—
a smile
masking my heart’s melancholy
on your journey
beyond the peaks of dark stars—
a smile
forever a memory
in thy spirit’s lifeline—
until the flesh of my own ghost
adds substance to your dream
and our smiles embrace

Speaks The Tree

once again
my thoughts traipse through my 6B quill
about time
about life
about the door exiting the future
about anything

then my eyes
feel the sleeping timber
imagine the hues captur’d in the grey
until I contrive purpose

and now hearing the silvery migration
I am gratify’d

Terra anemic

                                                      cities take a drag
                                                      trees mark’d eminent domain
                                                      rain nowhere to grow
