The July heat has come and it is as though winter is not far; as the summer has already flown by quickly. It seems as the weather is always one extreme or another. The summer heat is but a reflection of these things as I watch the heat waves radiate over the pavement. Life is a twinkle of the eye so saith the Word of God. Life is full of such extremes but I can live with out the drama. Holy is the soul that finds gratitude in the withstanding of what life brings. Though I would rather bare the heat than the cold; blessed am I that I live too experience life. If this be wisdom, then I am great full to have enriched you. If it bares no weight then it shall not hold you down. On the alter of peace, peace to you.

From illness one leaves the body
Transits in time
To natures comforts
To trees that whistle in the wind
Leafs brushed aside they fall to the ground
One now sits preens and wings stretch
Yuor past clean your past gone
Now traition is done one with nature
The ill body has flown
A new begining
A bird of nature
Your transtion has begun

I stand up on this paper stage
With only words to express
The deepest vowels, the highest consonants
Of what our hearts request
Dream on, sing on with me
In octaves of your own originality
Watch your words form linear lines
That move and bend in space and time
Imagination, Yes, Imagination
Give us old images of new shape and form
Imagination, Yes, Imagination
With each of our renewed perceptions, truly we are reborn
For all the poets and painters, writers and singers of song
Upon the written page
Let us write and recite our own thoughts and dreams
As we stand upon this paper stage

About this poem:
A poem dedicated to writers in voices of different forms/genres. Of the styles to chose from- chant seems the most close to my poem’s style but that doesn’t quiet nail it for me. Any thoughts on this?

Time travels through a portal of space
Sleep travels through a body at night
A thousand minutes more than half a day
A thousand unconscionable moments lay
Like the midnight rides of Ichabod Crane
Do these dreams also gallop just in vain
For the race that we enter we must win
Or only wonder what might have been
Time that travels must somehow begin
Time that travels must somehow end
Seasons of happiness seasons of sorrow
Cadence that resonates each insects song
A buzzing of passing bees going along
The path time travels winds and bends
A brook across the meadow meandering
A barnyard full of nesting sparrows
In every timber crossing and gable
Time only know when its right and able
Or demonstrate what’s right and noble
Time to awaken from our dreams
To know things ain’t as they seem
Time to distance ourselves from the past
To look forward to the things that last
A place to observe the stars in the sky
Into the night hours we watch for nigh
A light perhaps from a falling star
A moment to become all you are

About this poem:
An abstract writing about the word 'nigh'. The word is interesting if not odd.

Heat of the sun
The motion of the water laps the sandy beach
Cool breeze
The heat envelopes ones senses
The gentle breeze
Blows within the trees
Sound of quite tone
Fills ones ears
One is at peace
As one walks the waters edge
Bare foot water laps the feet cooling chilling
One walks the waters edge

Six sides
Closed in walls
Gray barran
Graffiti lurks cold to breath
Lights flicker
Senses void
Hightened pain
Ears closed
Shouts of pain
From others closed
Senses hightened to the cold
Investment breath heavy
Damp one sits and dwells on past without future
One is bound
Feelings gone
One is void one is lost

True love is measured by how deep you fall
And judged by how low you are willing to crawl
Just to save it and make it last
It is determined by how willing you are to open up and offer your trust.
It is hospitable, amazing at all times, and always kind.
It is never prejudiced, it is color blind.

Do you feel the breeze
Wind envelopes sways the tree
Branches now blown away
Dancing in the breeze
Birds hold on tight
Blown from their peaches
That wind howls tonight winds gather up
Rain facets paces darkened skies night and day darken
Lightning flashes hail wind and rain
Leaves blown by the force the trees stand nearly bare
for all to see
Branches leafy fallen on the road the fields
Darkness fade winds fade sky's brighten the sunny sky once again
Sun shines bright leaves appear
The trees live again

Demon of the world
Havoc you cause
Life expelled
You float
You lurk
Your the intruder
Man's greed Thier creation
Alway seen discarded
In open seas
Under the waves not to be seen
Your still there lurking man's greed
Never ending always there
You don't hide
Always seen on top
Beneath your always there
Floating on the open seas

I dream of you to kiss those lips wanting you
I dream of you each day
Shy to talk shy to approach
I dream of what to say
Your hair dazzles me takes
my breath I can hardly breath
I drown in breath
To be near you to hold you close
To taste those lips
Your my princess held pedistals high
I want to be near you to hold you
Talk to you to kiss you
my wanting feelings for you
But I hide from you from a far
From other ends of this earth
I dream of you
hoping I can be with you my love how I miss who you are
my one true love
