The Gift's
It's not that my eyes have beheld the dawn or the golden leaves of fall But that I have this miracle in the gift of sight and that I see anything at all It's not in the hearing of the most beautiful sounds such as when you speak a word B

Heart Damage
There's a healing in progress for every stab to the soul There's a sacred text being written as broken hearts unfold For every kindness unanswered a reckoning must be met And as the seeds of love are planted A flower shall we see yet~

Poet's Pen
Some men dig for gold deep within the earth Others explore the heavens searching for their worth But the poet will find all these things with a single stroke of the pen When they find that gold in a heavenly heart that glitters deep within~
X Games

PERFECT SETTING
* I composed this for a romantic interest, the mother of 3 delightfully intelligent sons, who at the time we met were understandably still very much devoted to their father, and thereby torn by the notion that their mother's interest had shifted towards me, despite our first glances & union occuring AFTER the finality of their parents' divorce. Too fresh to them, at my behest, we waited eons apart, to rekindle a romance, this poetry manifesting my sentiments for her.
ENCHANTING VIEW
This is written in just one of my many diverse styles. I call this unique poetic artistry "Profusion" because it is excessively bombarded with too many poetic elements, including some I've innovated*, such as: Alliteration, Allusion, Antonyms, *"ArchieBunkerism", Assonance, *"Character Mapping", *"Colour", Dichotomy, *"DicLixCYa", Double-Entendre, Elision, *"FuNTS", Homographs, Homonyms, Homophones, (I know, what a bunch o' Homos! ; ), Hyperbole, Juxtaposition, Metaphors, Metonymy, Onomatopoeia, Oxymorons, Personification, *"PUNK'dU8shun" Puns, Similes, *"Strategic Phrasing", Subliminal, Symbolism, Synonyms, *"Textual InUendOH!", + others... It is more for my own word-playa amusement (admittedly narcissistic?) than for layperson public consumption. Some of the elements may not be easily detected completely due to HTML limits in this post (if you'd like to view it in its "fool glory" in MS Word, email a request from/to your personal addy). Most get the surface level, but to fully appreciate its complex, deeper multiple meanings, reread & study it slowly and see if you can detect all 80+ of its intentionally composed poetic elements.

Through a Liquid Lens I See
I cry for the people who were here before the "White Eyes" arrived from the East to take over this continent. It's the natural order of things on this planet though, and it's played out from vegetation to insects to fish to Lions to human beings. The strong survive to breed, the weak perish. This poem was inspired by a song by Buffy Sainte Marie called "My country Tis of Thy People You're Dying".

HER LOVELINESS I NEVER KNEW !
I am a mental health professional. I enjoy literature, Shakespeare and poetry. I am a poet. When I wrote this poem, I was thinking of love of my life Diana. The poems of Elizabeth Barrett Browning expressed my eternal love, "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the length and depth and height, My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight; For the ends of Being and ideal of Grace. I love thee to the level of every day's, Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight. I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God chooses, I shall love thee better after death.

Fragile
Often life seems to have all negative intersect at the same relative time in one's life and no matter how much stamina we have we reach the edge of shattering. This is a tribute to those people and an understanding of their unique plight.

Time To Decide
As the sun rises each morning, thoughts arise without warning, things remind you of your past, all the things that did not last, From people who became a friend, to those who drove you ‘round the bend. Family who were a true support, and th
