Here and there across the ground

underfoot old and new white and brown.

  Was it sudden? Was it pain?

Flutter and fly they pass without a thought.

Colors on the wind all are transfixed.

Beauty in this death to lessen the hurt.

A balance that's made in the sky and the dirt.

Words I write so blissfully

And sing alone for none to see.

At times a silent artist

But my star can shine the farthest.

I sit and listen to the rain

As it gently patters on my windowpane.

I pluck a solemn wind from the sky

And it grants my wish

Sadness is her world

But there it is not always so.

It's a mirror reflection

In your eyes.

She dances to her flute

In the rain bare of foot.

The base of

Not everybody. Not 

me or those redwoods up north

in the heat wide and strong

and tall. My only death was a dog.

I give you this gift and then take it back. This gift is my hair. Three strands. I sew them like dark string. I touch your mouth to my mouth. I heard you are going away and I don’t mind. I heard S. moved to my future home

1.
Arrows. I know you as arrows. I know you as arrows know the air.

2.
Bluebells baskets of berries big open spaces
bees and tiny blossoms in your mother's backyard.

Come Back from San Francisco on the car radio
calling from California to say: I

In the fierce wind of Winter

or the light rain of Spring

Violence and Hatred from Sinners

"lord be with you we sing".

Golden rays of sunshine

beam down on those who love.

Blessed are those who are
