My Poetry and Prose Blogology




Mothers’ Day
“who taught us how to love
in a love-forgotten world
who spread their beauty
upon nature’s own beauty”


Becoming Infinity
“I linger in the light
squinting in silver curiosity
exploring the snarled calculus
of this mystifying universe…”


Clouds Cloak Fervent Suns
“clouds cloak fervent suns
helping us grow and stand firm
in soft rains of hope”


If I Could Unearth
“If I could unearth
lost paths in soft—forlorn hearts
I’d draw gracious maps”



Quiet Angels
“there's a perpetual sadness stirring
the pure hearts of our whispering waters…”

Rivers Don’t Flow Straight
“rivers don’t flow straight
shaped by curls of daunting earth
challenges spread life”






The Nth River
“the final flows of our weary sky-blue rivers
turbid from stretches of exasperated erosion
stirred up in colors of boundless branches
will gracefully empty into an endless ocean”
