Other Mornings
Misty mornings where I walk Horsetails grow in profusion As to myself, out loud, I talk Seeking escape from confusion Primitive the plants which grow Primitive also this modern man With more misty dawns to know At least that is my current plan
Cheap Bead on a Necklace of Stars
When will we say enough is more than enough Will it be before our world, life cries, “time out” Will we be told, exit the stage, leave all our stuff Never convinced we knew what our play’s about Where have we gone wrong in the deeps of time Perhaps, a wrong person took a rock […]
Reflections From the Reaper’s Scythe
Life, of late, runs rampant, oh so fraught Drama, danger, fire, medical emergency Reflected flickers, moments briefly caught Shine on the Reaper’s scythe for all to see Death and life are natural, have no doubt Whisper in our ears, if we will only listen Often, we don’t hear them, so they shout Look, here, hope […]

Serial Friday ~ Arcadian Journey
Chapter Fourteen Charoo proved an awful place, cool, green and brown with a pale blue sky. She missed the reds and blues, Arcadia’s lovely turquoise sky. Eni adjusted the scarf over the lower half of her face. She’d done it first to mask the odd smells that greeted her when she left the ship. […]
In Between
