Rowing (to Jay ❤️)

There is one photograph

Of you standing there

My eyes own adventure

Traveling from your face

To your body back

To your face knowing

That like with each

Row of the oar

I get a little

Bit closer to you

InvisibleDrum

And with each season

Comes it’s own surprises

Awake aware abandon acquiesce

Bud blossom befall bedtime

Curious crave collapse close

Dawn desire descend die

On through the alphabet

No matter the season

Whether it be love

Or life or time

The seasons always march

To an invisible drum

Heard by no one

Yet felt by all

LoveSpeak

As the pond said

To the lad after

He remarked of its

Beauty I mirror only

What I myself see

TakingNotice

As I have gotten older

I’ve become more aware

Of the little things

Having been bombarded by

The grand things of

Life I have sought

Refuge in the quiet

Things raindrops on eaves

The scratching of fall

Leaves and ant hills

That seem to erupt

Overnight through sidewalk cracks

The slower things like

Inch by delicate inch

Of freshly fallen snow

That crawls against windows

And plump caterpillars that

Wind and weave munching

Polka dots in green

On their way to

Emerging butterfly and oh

Yes love as called

Accepting it rather than

Seeking it there’s comfort

In the little slow

Things that simply show

Up for no other

Reason than being themselves

And I taking notice

YourEyes (for Java)

When above me

You hovered inches

From my face

I saw therein

Your eyes creation

Not all of

Creation just ours

I witnessed something

Happening from nothing

And right there

I knew that

Like God said

It is good
