Life love, way of the world
Precious package
Best we could do
the only thing
Mailed to the heartland
open it, feel full
Keep the postman employed.
Travel in circles carrying
The Message
cradled in arms of grace
Give it away, passion played
Let the anchorman headline.
Life love, it was life love all along.
Follow me to the water
Where fingertips pedal softly on translucent keys
Silent notes travel across ripples of blue
and fall away into stillness.
I see the rosebud, tender and tempting
Tight layers of smoothness and simplicity
vibrating with life
capturing imagination, then admiration
revealed in the mind’s eye, lids closed one moment more.

Cold, damp
Fever grows
Petals shiver, rained upon
uncertainty floats in, marine layer on the edge
moving quickly, hovering just above … and to the right.
Coat and flannel
lovie, blanket
Wake up, I am.
Get up, I am not.
Lingering in cloud, vision still dark, after a long night.

Like all the rest.
But I hear the music, and it’s been years.
Blue of sky, grumbling floor, wide expanse of bridge and blur
Warm to the touch, imagining the ride,
I open up
to light and air, and a bald eagle traveling.
We fly side by side, nose to nose. Like a run for the roses-
he on the outside, me on the in- only we mean to arrive together.
I look around, no one else is seeing.
I look again, white feather fan in the breeze, and I know.
Match his smile and sway, before he soars out of sight.
Later, as sky descends with the power of steel and metallic might-
a rainbow appears against the dark.
I look around, no one else is seeing.
I look again, sun breaks to the west, and I know.
Come in close, then let go, with outstretched arms and toes.
