“Ahead of All Parting”- Truer Vision. Whitest verging crested star break- I thought of us forever enraptured by that lovefelt light again, gently smiling as if we were Home. -- -- White wattage this ancient light off of me/Autumn masquerade; It’s August as September- I remember rare cool nights/Above thunder shouts, we listened. Blank sheets of Lightning drift as thought, capturing those taller clouds Illuminated w/in. From Advent-Alpha 1997 -- --

Snow “drops” bright, diamond white, descend & dimmed candle flame fades> Forgetting lost days; [where] can I begin? Longfellow, I see your “white grief ” thrown of Heaven again/ falling falling slow(ly) long after morning. 1/17/2008 Photograph with digital art 2010
Poem # 25
Th at fulfilling promise-it keeps me looking into the blue;
a Winter evening’s stand of pine trees cast forth this need-a faith of
symmetry mingles the moss and twists a rumor of Summer grasses
(those tiny seeds could almost be churches). Against the tyranny of
secrets there is a gentle loving-Christ recognized this as the gale winds
screamed, at sea he spoke as if he were in a dream. When stillness
seems like sure death, even as yet your very breathing is a gift. Vales of
darkness lift like thoughts or smaller seeds, cathedrals that learned to
trust the wind merge the moistened earth.

What silver(ed) light through wintered window beckons me again? Heaven song- listen life star shone long against a breadth of night sky, O endless poem through the treachery of days departure Autumn long and new swift chilling air, [remember]. 12/14-12/15/2001 Searching fallen flowers scattered like forsaken Angels or a bright surrender of stars/ Milk drawn mists greet this later May morning, too soon [it seemed] for Autumn colours. 5/25/2008 Photo of Poem w/digital effect 2009.
Black cat chases new(ly) fallen leaves> Silver, silver impossible rains into deep green/ After storm, and great grey [clouds] turn cold & unfold into Mtn. passes. Silhouetted starlings whirl beyond a blue arc of North-light-By Night-Falling an old Autumn wind sings again as if it were September.
