bruised sunlight

Beating today,
Ready but defenseless on our own road
Using the shade as often as a
Infant needs to be held
Shy little moments of the music of winter
Evoking many quick movements
Dunking the cookie in hot chocolate top
Shifting the hours into a back burner
Unlucky before but all better now
Not a single minute feels like the last one
Let me just get one more day of vacation or
Introduce me to borrowed time and found money
Getting the most out of our final week of the month
Having a good event stretch into a life
That I wouldn’t trade for the world

to frame life

taking a page

on the occasion of my publishing confirmation

from the page of a long lost friend

realizing the efforts of a beginning and end

and making all this come about through will power

my time is now my own

effort meeting the written word

like a young butterfly taking flight

it is far from over

from the takeoff to the landing

every moment a piece of golden experience

rough and ready

ready for the night and dawn
on an occasion of this season of our lives
unless it was not meant to be
getting a needless “one more” speech
having the grasp of this moment in history
after the day has made different people of us
now that it is the meaning behind our discontent
do commence the final long walk up that hill
reading into every little aspect tonight
equal to our joining together like a christmas storm meeting sun
answer to this moving weather
doing this in our blood and in our soul
your hand in mine as we jump

chasing sunsets

currents in a constant hurry
having an appointment on the distant horizon
after hours view of this last glow
shooting across the top of a world dome
interior of the forest is right here
named after the color of a bright light
giving a shimmer from so far off
still showing signs of the early parts of winter
up on the top of a golden five points is
nameless angel that has glad eyes
showing up sliding on ice
every word you say seems covered with brown sugar
taking my time with everything this time
so looking forward to seeing you

mysterious luck

moving out the window on a

yellow beam of morning light

stamping the day with a few new

tempting creations made last night

eager to glance down the street while

readying the connections to the

increasing activity every house has

on its sounding board floor or

under the same roof as all the little ghosts

sliding in and out of other peoples rooms

like water that flows to the lowest point

unusual occurrences that rarely get

caught in mid act but will change your mind

keeping your time

green pine tree

Gifts that are in your mind and
Really never delivered are
Every bit as common as the air we breathe
Each day filled with romantic gestures
Needless thanks and grateful small words
Placing a candle in a lamp on a table
Inside the tree is a bright red ribbon
Nothing can remove the smile in my mind
Ending the night in the glow between branches
Talking care of something that cares for you
Right when you need to be cheered up
Effortlessly climbing into
Exit signs of a broad evening sky

voices recorded

Volume of sound that can
Only be heard in the quietest of nights
in this case it was only as if
Closing the door and when reopened it
Evoked a whole new place to exist
So different it even felt alien
Reminded of the last day before relocating
Ears that feel like they do not work because
Country sounds that have all faded to nothing
Only be heard in the darkest of midnight
Riddles in the things you do not hear
Doing little tricks on your mind all the time
Equally spooked by silence and sudden noise
Daring to be the first one

The defining moment of a
Open sky day
Forbidden to speak and surrounded by snow
Ready for wherever the road as I know it goes
The less he spoke to be the one he saw 
The less he spoke about his new place for a goodnight kiss
Dark clouds stop knitting together the best of the atmosphere here to be out and about in the sky
Red reflections in a warm draft of the day Wispy water rolling along the upward aquamarine
Easing to get it for you
And improve Our understanding of the second results in a free kick for an challenge to the succulents Eager to fix my eagerness to be out of the question.
Has the day
Been the same for you?

the quickest place

The day was amazed and spread all around
Happy and heavy like a well fed dog
Even the sun took its time
Quietly reclining across the sky
Up-stream from the frolicking clouds of spice
Into my collected flavor of fire on Friday
Common mood that makes the whole experience better
Killing time with a blade of good music
Eventually clearing up the fog in my brain
Shifting the gears in a dynamic fashion
There are only so many perfect moments in a person’s
Place in this life and one of mine is when I found you
Like a movie sunset shining on us as we embrace
At last we can get the brief wink of a time zoom
Culminated in a shared month or twenty
Excited to see you Every single time
