26 thru 34 of 34

Ascension too fast
Lungs explode before tongues meld
alive once again

Fine pointillism
clarity from a distance
planets at the edge

Shout hallelujah
frenzied oxygenation
salt water on lips

Accelerating
behind us time looms ahead
wrapped implicitly

Love again refrains
adrift on sunny sandbars
palm fruits, dates, acai

We are young again
stellate beings thrice reborn
twice kissed we are alone

Two swimmers azure
water beaded sky blues hope
refracted visions

Before words we were
nothing, pointed subtlety
essentially stars

Will never lose me
mouthed indistinguishably
there underwater

No Grinch Eye

My Christmas tree stays up until the spirit of the season leaves me. There are years my tree doesn’t come down.

My Purple Friend

How wonderful that
should anything stain,
‘twould be a berry
