  • Tanta

    Tanta
    Live as you long,
    keep yourself strong,
    damp desire,
    from a hardened heart,
    new beginnings,
    fresh start,
    living in wonder,
    riding through the thunder,
  • Oregon

    Oregon
    All the worldliness and all the right,
    all the presence and all the might,
    symbols in Siberian snow,
    still such a long way to go,
    desalination and vegetation,
    healing and reparation,
    walking the Chile coast,
    with a little help from friendly ghosts,
    on the waltzers they chant his name,
    the dervish,
    I feel your pain,

  • Capricious

    Capricious
    Orbiting,
    harmony from afar,
    distant like a star,
    twinkling,
    tired from overthinking,
    competition,
    drifting apart,
    mapping,
    watching the weather,
    satellite states,
    closely held together,
    hungry for another taste of hope,
    I have nothing to exchange,
    please pass me the remote,

  • Blackberries

    Blackberries
    Bound with thorns,
    growing,
    wrapped,
    intertwined,
    care,
    without the courtesy,
    prickly leaves,
    desire to please,
    berries carried by the birds,
    full of vitamin C,
    and part of you and me,



  • Function

    Function
    A brush stroke,
    invisible ink,
    time to reflect,
    time to think,
    away with the breeze,
    swishing trees,
  • Aquarium

    Aquarium
    With a smile, 
    I drifted through the aquarium glass,
    into a world of gentle bubbling tranquil movements,
    symphonies of peculiarities,
    shapes in a background of blue,
    harmony with you,
  • Equations

    Equations
    Endless, 
    would require,
    sentiment,
    compliments,
    sincerity and the serene,
    complexion,
    dynamics and your reflection,
    mesmerise,
    compounded with desire,
  • Vivid

    Vivid
    Here with you,
    stood,
    standing,
    not from a distance,
    not from afar,
    close,
    firm,
    forgiving with understanding,
    unraveling the unknown,
    cautious with belief,
    resolute in belonging,
    
    
  • Aconites

    Aconites
    Untold yet understood,
    delicate misgivings,
    gravity,
    discontent,
    pushed together,
    flung apart,
    molten core,
    soothed with years of platitudes,
    voices babble in distant lands,
    from there,
    to here,
    a feeling that the seasons bring,


  • Admiration

    Admiration
    Spring,
    and the warmth it may bring,
    Summer afternoon air hums your name,
    cast into the breeze,
    wishing to please,
    earthly admiration,
    leaves crinkle,
    shrivel and fall,
    afternoons shorten,
    dramatic skies,
    long shadows,
    looking at stars on a winter eve,
    floating in peaceful bliss,
    softened by the glow,
    crunching in the snow,
