And then when
Our love became
The game tug-of-war
And rather than
Pulling you into
The muddy pit
That we’d become
I simply let
Go of the
Rope and surrendered
And we stood
There staring and
Wondering why
And when and
How and now
What what now

HereByMe
Where do you
Go when I’m
No longer thinking
About you what
Happens to you
When I don’t
Remember what you
Sound like you
Must go somewhere
Anywhere but here
Disappearing like sand
Foot prints out
To sea you
Go with all
The others to
Be free with
All of them
No longer held
Here by me
Pining
How does a
Dog not hear
The call of
It’s master or
The leaves not
Feel the wind
Or the sand
Not feel the
Incessant pounding surf
Or the daffodil
The chill of
Frost and yet
You suppose I
Am supposed to
Not miss you
When wherever I
Am you are
Except right here
And here and
Yes over there
BeachDawn (to Bean)
And with my
Eyes I spy
A new day
Breaking out there
Not yet here
Canopy of clouds
Like London umbrellas
Growling and muttering
Hovering above churning
Seas washing the
Bleached beached sand
In sudsy foam
Depositing sea shells
At my feet
Which sink quickly
Like hasty relationships
And yet there
Beyond my reach
Dawn breaks through
Like a Chinese
Dragon on NewYears
Exploding bleeding red
For a moment
Then quietly gone
Just like yesterday
VirginiaBeach (to Black Bean)
And once again
Away you are
With those that
Love you most
Beach and ocean
Horizon white blue
Kissing ocean green
Sand and umbrellas
Laughter song love
Please be there
Now with them
Don’t wish me
There because I
Already am looking
Through your eyes
