sometimes she watched
a doe nuzzle its fawn
in the early hours of forest
and she hid herself away
like a clouded moon
with her hand in the dirt
her face where butterflies bob
powerful in the hands of evening
wayward shadows weep blue songs
this whisper of night is not the moon
it is my heart singing softly in the rain
i fell in love with you on a summer night
when your smile danced into my heart
moonlight and soft tide
drift in so slowly
brushing the shore
with gentle whispers
we undo the night
one layer at a time
and when you tell me
i am loved…i become
moonlight and soft tide
we, a sunrise smile
before the first rain
your heart in my heart
i woke, with a dream
before we became the day
just to hold you near
i open blue eyes
you and your faraway arms
silver sky trembles
you were there, while drops
of white rain twinkled in the wind
afternoon picked up her skirt
and splashes fell to the ground
before the hand of the mountain
closed into a fist as hard as rock
you ran alongside my strides
a warm glow in the gathering haze
we, a sunrise smile
before the first rain
your heart in my heart
i woke, with a dream
before we became the day
just to hold you near
i open blue eyes
you and your faraway arms
silver sky trembles
i want to sing to you…
as trees stroke the quiet
and wind whispers its secrets
in blue shadows and soft songs
i want to sing to you…
as night remembers the distance
between silence and the silver
light of morning on river ice
in these hands of evening
tall shadows weep sad songs
darkness is the moon’s wife
filling the heavens with night
delphinium blue, eyes of stars
i search in the deep of dark
places, on the surface of time
in whispers, moments of silence
you are the voice of the wind
i see the shape
of spring creeping
over the mountain
as shadows dance
beyond the sun
you touch me like sky
stillness, a moment
larger than silence
wind, a sudden friend
willow I remember you
wet with mist
I tossed a handful of moonbeams
all over you
willow I remember your
limbs and kisses
here in this grace of crows
here in this March snow
