Rocking the Galaxies...


















Sometimes the mind wanders
to those special places inside
in a world of silence she ponders
soaring with him, enjoying the ride

every story written has a beginning
time changes, there are no minutes
for the dragon's song has no ending
infinite boundaries, sky has no limits

fiery beast moves to a steady rhythm
heaven sighs with deep metal riffs
together they venture on a mission
soaring eastern skies, hovering cliffs

traveling through new dimensions
shifting melodies, vibrations of light
jolts of energy awaken their senses
flames ignite,  burning through night

crossing the astral plane of existence
roaring dragon sings haunting songs
conquering g- forces little resistance
amidst the vast cosmos he belongs

visions appear within crystal eyes
dreams unfold "dragon of the stars"
adventure awaits in distant skies
rocking the galaxy, seductive guitars

within a warm secret cavern they land
discovering magical treasures inside
two minds slowly begin to understand
the wondrous joy in a sapphire tide

under a heart shaped
   strawberry  moon
      ripe with perception 
         night tastes sweet & juicy
           savoring the flavor

within the patches of silence

  harvesting dreams

Discovering Bouyancy

photo by Toni Frissell
drowning
sea of desire
pockets of air bubbles
haunting dreams a mariner's song
drifting
~
inhale
floating weightless
cool deep waters of night
dreams of you rise to the surface
exhale
~
your words
lift me higher
whispering endearments
buoyancy keeps my dreams alive
i breathe

In the Highland Heather Grows

In a vast field wild heather grows
peacefully resting dreams reborn
roots dug deep healing water flows
in a vast field wild heather grows
your song and light forever glows
tears of sorrow hearts gently mourn
in a vast field wild heather grows
peacefully resting dreams reborn

wishing you peace in your new journey
my dreaming friend..you are not gone
just transformed.

Who is that Masked Bandit

















Lazy spring day
relaxing under a tree
nature bursting with life
birds flying from limb to limb
a butterfly seduces a wildflower
in the light of day..
overhead  a maya blue sky
soft puffy clouds drift by
from a giant maple
helicopters spin
twirling around until
they crash to the ground
sturdy tree rattles as if
to speak..I look
above through
thick  branches
what is up there
I feel his eyes on me
and then I see him
clinging to the tree
are you friend or foe
he teases me as he stretches
green leaves curtain his face
we play hide and seek
an amusing little game
I need a better view 
binoculars in hand
focusing upward
haha..
I see you now relaxing
back in the nook of the tree
you tilt your head a bit
to the right and I catch
a glimpse of your masked face
are you contemplating
your adventures tonight
under the cloak of darkness
what will be your loot
tell me friend what do you
see from your lookout point
do you wish to share a
secret  - are you as curious
about me as I am about you
we share a magical moment
one lazy spring day..

Fly Me Towards the Tiger Moon



















fly  me towards the tiger moon
I asked the hawk  high  overhead
awakening  dreams  with  a  tune 

sleeping  within  my  warm  cocoon 
feather  pillow, an  earthly  bed 
fly  me towards the tiger moon

near  waters of the  blue  lagoon
resting against the tiger's head
awakening  dreams  with  a  tune 

within  his  golden  orbs I  swoon
on wings of a hawk sorrow fled
fly me towards the tiger moon

heavenly skies, songs  softly  croon 
mystical  realm passion burns  red 
awakening  dreams  with  a  tune 

night quickly  fades, day  arrives  soon 
bated breath I  hang  from  a thread
fly me towards the tiger moon
awakening  dreams  with  a  tune

Little Dragonfly - Seeking Light

artwork by Ulrike Bolenz


Within the dragon she hears a song
to thee the flowering blossoms belong
she a poetess, releasing her inner beast
for within his sultry words she did feast
dancing in the shadows of  his dark silhouette
the love she felt she could never forget
with claw and fire they did cling
misty evenings, nightingales would  sing
  in a magical world they took flight
soaring together towards beams of light
she loved him with a true heart
he had another, her wings were torn apart
for in the moment she thought he cared
carrying treasures the joy they shared
 she flutters about, making her way
stars and moon fade into another day
through darken skies
her heart silently cries
