A Secret Sculptor

A secret sculptor
Dwells within the sea
Far beyond the foaming waves,
Who nightly fashions
Finely forms of stone and wood,
Salvaged from their salty graves
To place upon the sea washed sand...
A gift for mourning strollers by the sea

 Leave a modest mark upon the stone
That Time will on its own erase,
For what you mark
Upon the name of man
Is but a passer's footsteps
Made upon a changing sand.

A Path Of Sand


A Path Of Sand

The restless sea sends its claws
Against the bounding land,
Forging a battlefield
Deep in grains of fallen sand.
A billion years
The war has raged
To pave a path of sand for me
Between the silent stone and surging sea ...
Where I will soon forever be.

Cosmic Gifts


Cosmic Gifts

I will be the one you see
Distant down
The sea swept shore
Alone amid the wonders there;
The cosmic gifts
The stars have shed
On their burning journeys
Down the inexplicable pathway
  Of Time.

Dreaming Of Colors


Dreaming Of Colors

There is a toll that's paid
For dreaming of colors
In a world of gray;
A world
That breaks the pottery
And hardens the clay.

Pastness


Pastness


                                                                                                Click to enlarge



Moments flow by
Like molecules of water
Rivering to the sea...
Is there a great sea of moments past
Where time that was remains,
A vast pool of pastness
Beyond the reach of memory,
Beyond the reach of knowing...
Where dreams that died
Still drift upon the mourning tides?

Winter Shades


Winter Shades

My Spring thoughts
Came in the late days of Summer,
And now Winter shades
Even the golden rays of Autumn.
