Misty Motion

Mists flowing through trees
Compelled by wind’s urging.
Rivulets descend the glass
Warping these trees I view.
Refraction’s coloration divine.
Sunlight glitters upon them,
Moments flickering through
Greyness, cloudy murk
Defines my land. White
Farmhouse upon the hill
Calls to me, wondering
Where I’ve journeyed, the
Familiar seeps into my
Bones. Salvation.

My Mind’s Vigor

Upon this odd hour
My mind flutters gracefully
Over bright flowers.

Seek love

Cower not, fearful of love.
Rejection’s burn isn’t so brutal
As to remain empty of love’s
Brilliant warmth.

Reflections

Into myself I dive
Collapsing my life
Into a single
Moment, everything
Becomes clear, but then
Fades beyond my grasp.

Light, Love

Like something
Jane Austen would’ve wrote,

Dancing around edges,
Flickering, flirting, motion,
Seducing me, drawing me
Closer than I should;

Then I would dare if I were
Rational. But that mind
Sleeps on the edge of
Where darkness meets
Light.

Playing with Fire

One must be cautious
If you choose to play with fire,
Is your heart the fuel?
