The white Rose


copper coloured pots
and the chime of bells
a vast blue ground.
and lots of grass

the warmth of an ocean
the kiss of the nights
sweet drinks.
two loaves of bread.
and iced tea...
indulgent chocolate
lollipopped glory...
green and red..
and charming winds.


dickens and wilde
and a Christmas carol
and sheets of paper
saying "i love you".

weak spots and strong..
and whispered songs..
and a generous heart
that loves to share

the blanket of dreams and you and me
a word.not one.
go on and on..

the eye of the needle under the brown arch
white shirts.two.one long gone..

vague figures on the écran
Gable and fantasies and Scarlett hues
not tennis..but two sports shoes..

mighty winds of authority..
a one and a two..
an addled computer
going boink!boink!boink!

phone calls and giggles
Recharged Questions !
"I am serious about her!"
shared loves and lives.
a deep green pail
and herbal essences..

baked garlic and cheese
olives and those scornful
baby-corns
the sound of "would you like some more?"
hovering around.


the antique figurine..
big ears..cute nose..
and other wedding gifts..
stacked on shelves
waiting to be caressed and held.

chatter.pit-pat.
clatter.not clam.
and open mystery
to anyone who saw.

that binding vine of love...

Eureka Eureka!

I cracked a silly joke You humored me I was childish about so many things You were patient I told you I was sleepless You worried about me I jumped with joy after my results You jumped with me I was scared to be Jo-less You were there for me I wanted a shoulder to lean on You gave me yours I panicked I'd lost a friend You heard me out I fought with M You calmed me down I worried about D You consoled me I was confused about life You guided me I was lost and aimless You showed me the way I was unstable and unsure You were my rock I was so blind about things You said "It's for keeps " I just want to tell you how much I value,treasure and love you And want you to know That I,too, want "it" for life..

the last walk down street A

i turn. it follows as it always has. dark memory.buried deep. deep deep deep within the unreachable corners of the undecipherable world. a pretence . and love.in all its colours. tears.sobs.swollen promises. some more. and i know. what it never will. through the neon eeriness of la noche. like a dingy glove. a blast from the past. persistence and resistance and acceptance.and Deliverance will its soul respond? will it cry? will it remember? as i know. i will.
