SIGHS OF DAWN

In the solemn eyes
of a ponds glass face
sorrow etches ripples
undulating green
as tears turn to mist
and rise to paint the dawn
the meadowlarks return
yellow sparks of song
darkness leaves the water
paling gentle shades of moss
ripples once in fearful circles
now return to waves of sighs
bliss is found in light of day
when beauty can be seen
sadness won't return
til sunshine bleeds away

POETRY
I LONG FOR SAPHIRE


The blue of your sky laughs in fat clouds
I think of this tonight
As I part the gray curtains of moon mist
Reaching to wipe with cool fingers
My fevered brow
I have awakened from a nightmare
Found myself twisted in the sheets alone
Mired in the cool sweat of fear
My sky has been under the veil of storms for so long that
Laughter is a quest of great magnitude
For now I will allow myself the pleasure of pure hate
Because though I am ashamed to admit to the truth
I envy the giggling sapphire sky of your view
