The Corners of The Night

Fearful came this midnight
like the past the sun has set
secret things that darkness brings
has swift into it crept
Not the moonlit meadow
nor the sky with stars to light
streaks of love are trailing
to the corners of the night
Serenades in truth invade
with daylight all but gone
are we who we say we are
and to ourselves be known
Searching deep in falling shadows
sad ol song seems now replayed
and this descent, desire repent
as memories burn to fade
Yet daylight finds it's dawning
just as dreams are taking flight
fearful came though hope inflames
the corners of the night

Kingdoms Come Collide

Final trumpet calling
as the kingdoms come collide
through the gnashing darkness
moon and stars have realigned
In the midnight gardens
shades do mourn and souls project
through a dawn where light is gone
and hearts and hopes neglect
Night to filter in begin
and truths become the known
pass from here to where unclear
ourselves but not alone
Hidden stars and constellations
correlation of reflection
looking through that shaded hue
words heard in life's inflection
Still they hide where dreams invite
to echo world's divide
final trumpet calling
as the kingdoms come collide

Echoed Hush

Fire and space are interlaced
embraced in echoed hush
Time does fly for most
yet I have tasted of it's rush
For in these pools relaxed bejeweled
paints sparkle grains of time
a sacred place divine in grace
to find embrace entwine
Crystaled gems reminding swim
sing songs you siren sway
resounding rush in echoed hush
to thrust this heartened play
Still to dive romance contrive
as pleasures quick are spilt
to the edge of never
ever after's call revealed
Awash with love's expressions
trickling hot and interlaced
echoed hush, lay waste of rush
to taste of fire and space

Cindered Soul

Drench me in your falling rain
come soothe my cindered soul
yours to keep until we sleep
complete, you make me whole
Lavished breath of life entice
give hope to each of mine
not a day in passing
could I last without your shine
Pour me in your being
seeing me for what I am
burn me up it's true you do
in lieu your heart's command
Bound to you a thousand hues
your fire does make me whole
drench me in your falling rain
come soothe my cindered soul

Sultry Night, Invoke Ignite

Passion caught 'hind fiery thought
flash hot then fade to gray
wrapped in shadows of the past
to cast en-trance convey
Heart's recall for after-all
the rain remembers well
sultry night, invoke ignite
it too like passion fell
Just a moment on the ear
as words like silk did slide
here once more to love implore
to burn and dance and glide
Darkness of the night invite
your flame on shadows cast
flashing hot with passions caught
too hot to burn too fast
Forged in shades of passion
flash hot then fade to gray
remaining caught in fiery thought
to cast en-trance convey

Shadowed Night

Shadowed night your truths invite
the dreams of fading day
sun to rise and hopes surmise
another dawn to play
Rolling clouds and lifting shrouds
through skies afire with chance
nothing grays til blues replace
by grace and not by chance
Shadowed night reverse your plight
invite your thoughts to share
skies imbued with brighter hues
where dreams they seem to dare
Off in heaven's glory
storied lines remind and play
shadowed night your truths invite
the dreams of fading day

Chaos To The Eye

Chaos to the eye imply
the heart to oversee
always ever-present
so it goes eternally
Balance found as words resound
each strike this papered pen
til these lines submit resign
or burn to fade, descend
Wrapped in passion's passing
flashing quick from heart to page
going through the motions
and emotions are uncaged
Fearful eye to wonder why
the chaos has to be
watchful still in wanton thrill
the heart to oversee
