Roaming the Dark Side

Dreams fill two light hearted fools heads

navigating between heaven & earth

our stories woven, golden threads

adventures waiting, tales giving birth

Celestial body, silver stars  dance

wooing hearts, romance in the air

casting spells, Truedessa in a trance

constellations twinkling,  solar flares

Blanket of darkness, no place to hide

mystic powers, soft ballad distance cry

glistening moonbeams, ready to ride

Aquila lights the misty evening sky

Pewter wings soaring night hawk

Truedessa caught in a giant claw

Captain Pat's smile melts to a frown

drawing his sword, clenching jaw

Calling upon the powers, crystal skull

shooting stars, fiery arrows in flight

soft sighs, drifting in a momentary lull

declaring an oath,  we fight this night

Hawk clever disguise landing on the moon

cosmic dust gleaming in his dark eyes

mystical powers, playing bizarre tunes

Captain Pat hears her haunting cries

Cat hisses summoning  ancient powers

heaven roaring - mighty lion arises

diamond collar - sudden meteor showers

mythical realm alive..full of surprises

Captain & cat riding the mighty beast

off to the moon,  facing that martian loon

stealing Truedessa, this madness must cease

soon this creature will be singing a new tune

Roaming the dark side avoiding craters

Leo the Lion stalking vast stars

seeking that little green traitor

sending  his probing ways back to mars

Captain & cat fighting this evil creature

flinging moon rocks, from here to there

 wild scene for an alien movie feature

out of nowhere a fire ball from the air

Truedessa calling upon the universe

powers of the sun, align with the moon

she softly sings in harmony poetic verse

casting a magical spell,  martian swoons

Encapsulating the alien in his spacecraft

navigation set,  flying him into a black hole

Truedessa smiling with glee, Captain laughs

cat  hissing lets flee,  it's time for us to roll...

Sliding down yellow moonbeams waiting ship

safe once again, exhausted they sleep

in the sunrise they will continue their trip

seeking the bora bora shores in waters deep

as the moon and sun continues to shine

to the Bora Bora Shore seeking that treasure

Vortexes Hum Phoenix Sings

green valley, tumbleweeds, salmon colored rocks

chiseled masterpieces created by  gods

mysterious  pathways , gatekeepers watch

protecting ancient secrets, appointed jobs

panoramic vista,  traveling dusty trails

giant sandstones , towering  mythical buttes

blowing  soft whisper, haunting tales

within canyon walls dreams take root

before my eyes visions take formation

drifting puffy clouds,  blue dramatic sky

casting  ghostly shadows on the desert floor

spectacular view,  eerie winds heave a sigh

storytellers chant, drums beat,  spirits soar

under a blazing sun the gods walked this land

thunder rattled, powerful warriors danced

leaving  earthly imprints in burnt rust sand

magical moment heaven & earth entranced

natural phenomenon splendor in the sky

 supernatural occurrence new sunrise

breaking horizon clouds form wings

 orange rays, fiery tail, teardrops, silent cries

vortexes hum.. majestic phoenix sings

gracing dwellers below rare picturesque sight

ancestors channeling power, blessing the land

overhead the mighty bird takes flight

time stands still, hourglass of sand

Carving Eyes So We May See...

planted in a vast fertile field

roots take hold & hope is grown

how many bright  faces will it yield

in autumn's mist, dreams are sown

vines twisting around weaving a path

will it be enough to feed the masses

lost & hungry will we feel the wrath

minds poisoned by mysterious gases

cut of a knife soft flesh, hard shell

carving eyes, so the world may see

candlelight love a place to dwell

opening our hearts holds the key

tossing  pumpkin seeds food for thought

fall breeze may new dreams be caught
