Sea Of Rhythm
I am mesmerized
by the beautiful waters
of Newport, Rhode Island.
The waves crashing in rhythm along the shoreline
beckons my soul with sweet comforts and bliss.
The smell and the taste in the air
and I am home on this land.
So far away, yet at night
in my dreams always in Newport.
The sea of rhythm calls to my soul
with special cadences.
When the fog rolls in it is
sky meeting sea and from miles away
I feel and hear its love song.
In my dreams the water is my partner
twirling me among the whitecaps
and water's foam with special, miraculous dances.
I am in ecstasy with the
synergy of the
water's
melody.

May You Have The Most Wonderful Holiday Season!
The Ocean Beckons

How I love the sound of the crashing waves
upon the sand as the foam curls in around my
toes.
The mist as it swirls in the air through my
squinted eyes and down to tickle my nose.
The darkened line of the horizon where the
water meets the sky and dreams are invented.
I love the ocean and the waves with their
mountains of foam.
It seems to speak as its emotions are
vented.
When the ocean swells and then falls it
beckons all with its call.

Wings of Time and Memories

Memories and a whispering voice
approach me through the wings of traveling time.
Like a dove's white feathers gliding across the stillness of a pond.

Its silver streams of light glisten in the moonlight.
I hear the song that once filled my mind with thought,
that once made me drown in your love.
A glimpse of you and what you have meant to me.
Your voice so soft and meaningful...
Now the wings of traveling time close in and blow away
leaving only reality behind.

Tick of Times

Time Ticks away unnoticed.
It is sometimes hard to give life focus.
Seconds slip away and the ticking of the
hours and the days.
Time ticks on and on,
through the old, through the new.
Swiftly moving, never lasting, time keeps
ticking right through.
Hold on as wings of time take off and fly
right by.
Away the minutes go, with the memories you
cannot show.
Through the smiles, the laughter, the pain
and the tears, all the sorrows of the years!
The pain will not last because time will
pass.
Let it be your teacher, let it be your friend.
Let it enable you to enjoy life right
until the end!

Sunshine Falls So Gently

The sunshine melts like a tiny little bubble.
Drops of light filter through the clouds.
The sky so blue, streaking shades of purple.
Smears into one enormous mass of swelling
colors.
The droplets fall upon outstretched arms.
They await calmly for its warmth of light.
Basking beneath it hearts are fulfilled
and bright.
Soft purple violets, a mellowing bouquet.
Sunshine falls so gently, not a bit too much
for the morning meadows below.
Let the sunshine fall down softly...goodbye!
Let lift your spirits highly!
Let it if fall so gently!

Satin Sheets of Metalic Purple

Like satin sheets of metalic purple
the sky shades the water's edge.
The sun of a pale pink
wanders down to the earth's ledge.
I am hanging onto the purple mist
as it streaks from the sky.
Hanging on and I scream out.
The words drip down like icing.
Lost among the whitecaps and the foam.
