Stark strangers loiter to scavenge thoughts once hid;
both now bustle briskly under this fair poplar
my muse, she blows keenly to rustle up these tired
parchments – not scratched e’er since autumn

When on a walk one early summer morn
A man began to think of life beyond
He paused to watch while children so forlorn
Seemed occupied in games they thought so fond.

Volcanic dense, though lava cooled,
Carved Phoenix rising to the sky,
To penetrate a pale, blue pool,
A morning call to Night's demise.

For celebrators of the holiday in the U.S., and for those who serve or are close to those who serve anywhere:
Today is more than just a holiday,
A Monday off to open summer season–
To honor those who’ve fallen is the reason,
Who gave the greatest gift beyond repay.

The whistle screams the hour for you to go.
There’s one last word to whisper, here, to you.
Your tears well up in eyes so sad and low.
My leaden heart stops, short, my every move.
I breathe a shiv’ry breath and take your hand,

ONE HEART
By R. Saint Claire
Loving center and corporeal home,
A fused join at two chambers meeting,
Sacred symbol of the love I own,
And emblem of my life’s completing.

Upon the morning stirs her Shimmering Light
As nighttide sleeps the Daytide Smiles;
Proclamation of Engendered Treasure
Beyond the compulsion of pretense and guile.

Peasants fear the mention of his name.
Grown men tremble at the setting sun.
O’er the Carpathian mountain range
Among the forest where wild wolves run.

When All Others have, in Passion, made their Plight,
And Songs of Praise and Adoration, Bending,
Shall Cast their lot adrift with blinded sight,
My Love Holds Fast, through words forgotten, Sending.

When I awoke is when a knew a dream
Is where I’d heard a song like angels sing.
Each note the voice of distant star did seem,
While all in one accord made heavens ring.

Beyond the barren, desperate plains,
The Weary, Calling to Heaven from earth;
Countless generations Cry in pain,
Breathlessly Awaiting a Royal Birth.

To imagine hope, we might newly allay

Tradition suggests acknowledge ourselves
In scheme, our spiritual karma wanes,
Like to believe that humanity delves
Where love in peace speaks hopeful gains.

When sun arose to widen sleepy eyelid
A calm begun soon turned memory horrific
We wake shadowed in darkness, a slow embrace
Shattered dreams begun inside stranger despair.

body seeming to recognize limits
each stepping stone, virtual time rescinds
calculate further storm than time admits.

From where does this infection come
To which we all seem to succumb?
Our atavistic fears become
A bony heartbeat – inhuman drum.

I was a babe in arms, swaddled under

those that would help determine life to me.

Where Light lifts our heads from Gentle Sleep,

The future is always on my mind and my mind on my future
So what can I do to make my future brighter?
A brighter future would make my heart lighter
A lighter heart would make for a healthier future
A healthier future would make for longer life
Life lived well could give way to a more lasting legacy

to speak in utterances, scream aloud
our freedoms, our ability to breathe
in energy evils presently seethe.

It’s Golden Bars A-shimmer in Secluded form,
Like Fortune Standing Mute Upon a Stage
While Blind and Deaf Parishioners to it swarm.

Tis a dark day today I curse my fate
The world is filled with dark eyes
I am alone and bemoan my state
Does nobody care or hear my cries
At last I feel I’ve lost all hope
Weary of lies and tired of life
The far horizon offers no scope
