Along Your Merry Way
In the deepest darkest depths of night When all your thoughts shriek danger, fright When evil looms within your sight Dawn will come When wicked winter winds into your marrow bite When storm-dark clouds bring sleet and snow and ice And every day you live feels black as night Spring will come When every urge […]
Catching Up
To any who have wondered where I’ve been of late online (I hope there will be one or two) perhaps the following verse will explain. I have been working on other writings, though still trying to edit them into my best form. I’ve also spent some time painting digitally, while I wait for a surgically […]
Light, A Distant Vista
Responsible, preoccupied, needs, daily duties, urges to create Atlas beneath my half sky inventing my truth in beauty before I’m late Days fast-paced, so full of shoulds and musts to meet and answer When so few seek either truth or beauty; they don’t pay the financier Is shielding the candle flame from darkness worth the […]

Ponder Rosa – My not so secret thoughts
My thoughts and deepest sympathies go out to the victims and families and the bombing at the Boston Marathon and all of those killed or injured in our recent wars, mass shootings, terrorist attacks and any other human-made disasters, murders, mayhem and the insanity that grows in the world daily.
