Reflecting
a sky darkened to grape
lying in stillness. . . .
a lake of wine
the lake mirrors
wisps of twilight’s clouds above -
a lilac trail
on the lilac trail
full white moon
a face glitters on water
deep purple water
moon in pomegranate sky. . . .
reflecting

First Blooms
Ruby, canary,
white, and purple heads waking
tulips in my yard.
Yawn and stretch petals
to salute the sun, smiling
full blossomed beauties.

Caught Up In the Moment
lolling on a hill
in glossy days of summer
cherishing blue skies
fat bumblebees hum
tunes of sweetness and sunlight
purple rose delight
gurgling brook's laughing
then the fall, and mum's the word
chrysanthemum craze
calico cat frisks
in the mystery of hours
colored by beauty

Monarchia Magicaria Andean Red Moth
Grapes slumbering; on..'
Leafs shading, yeast patina'ed fruit..
Sun-downers tonight..!
Grapes ripening on..'
Vine gripping seasoned trellis.
Purple skies..' ( thirst )
Grapes burgeoning on..'
frame groans; the labourers gains..'
Andean moth drinks..!

frozen on the vine
cryogenic flavored host
a time released smile
frozen on the vine
ice glistening in the sun
grapes hold on tight
harvest time has come
necter trapped in purple orbs
till glasses are raised

Earths red crust shudders
Skyline crackles purple forks
Famine feet flurry
My willow tree scorched

Barefoot beach walk dream
Volcanic ash views
A black season treelines crunch
Whimpered solo bark
Stagnant water tea
Pungent roots and herbs galore
Humanless abyss
