A Path of Meekness
“humble—reverent spirits who suffer
for possessing soft and generous hearts
walk simple paths of mercy and grace…”


The Poor in Spirit
“God patiently teaches me
the forgotten blessings of attitudes
in authentic—broken souls like us…”

I’m a Stranger in a Strange Land
“the days are getting shorter now
as dark storms spin a cunning entrance
gathering fears below my autumn realm…”


A Fish Out of Water
"shivering apparitions of early morning mists
softly settle on their deep—quiescent waters..."



What’s in a Name?
"dark waters haunt me—
with my Scottish name—Douglas
meaning dark river..."




Billions and Billions
"how many of your beloved stars do you know—
who stare through the cold molasses of night..."

Evanescence
"you linger in dreams
immersed in a placid teal sea
protected in the chest of my heart..."


Starfish Wishes
"merciless breakers of rolling rage
born beneath lost—lonely rainbows
churn deep colors into hoary froths..."
