those backwaters that touch within the water surf's up rising in the tide where the riptide of life carries one into new places unexplored yet it's those places that allows one to dream within that thick imagination make one savor the unknown teardrops within the undertow horizons in the edge of time

breaking from those chains

never mind the shadows

they hold on to jeers

those whispers that matter not

find the silence

that completes one

the sunshine that one needs

the hope within the dark

reaching in those times

held breathless

laying in those youthful transformations

raw in that nature

yet sometimes

it's just that

a simple reflection

an alternative

within its own making

but then it's an echo

a perspective held in its own shimmer

another day without you in my arms and we both wonder when that day will be we count the days until then meanwhile the moment moves on as our imagination plays it out why? life has a way of changing things even when we don't want them to but what can one do? accept that patience when it's meant to b...

Cataracts Flow within those rapids that I'd watch from the Colorado red river flows filled with clay as it trickles down from the creeks that are full from the previous nights rain and somehow it enriches the life that it gives sometimes quenching the thirst from those that come in from the surround...

reflections of the past

reaching for that sunshine

of moments gone

yet remembering good times

but one moves on

as well as life

still those roads continue

and here I am

waiting for the clouds to pass

why?

still figuring that out

reaching for those times

held in the past

memories falling by the wayside

yet held onto gently

drinking into the water

where perceptions find that need

contemplations made in images

concrete within that knowing care

expressions wrapped in innocence

reflections in yesterday

ready to rain again in that east Texas town where the summer has just begun, pages written into the next year and yet the green smiles within the season, humidity rises into the day clouds float finding their pattern punctuated in that flicker beneath that grey mother nature sings a simple tune

vibrations reach in the waves

rescued behind the sagebrush

cirrus greys in the sky

where if one listens

whispers tell those secrets

where breaths reach

within perceptions

those mists reveal shadows

phrases not yet told

yearning for that moment held introspectively explorations touch in that window of time scattered within milestones consecrated languages where pages find their meanings stargazing beyond the darkness abstracts in the wind punctuated in the blink of an eye yet leaves one guessing what is meant

red iron fox

bushy tailed

showing nature

within its glory

bright eyed with the dawn

over the creek and brush

reaching to survive

voices heard loud and clear

yips sharp in its echo

woven within the tone

dark tans in the sand

shadows held in that

inkling of hope

I hear those rhythms that touch life itself those beats from the heart of nature that natural flow some simply take for granted all on has to do is listen it's a song that's alive and vibrant a harmony that finds its own place take a walk some time with a complete open mind let the world sing to you...

Here I am feeling that want in your eyes needing the warmth of your touch yet we're apart time is not kind why? because you're on my mind those hopes that we find become what we need moments touch within those seconds all I want is you shadows arrive beyond the sun yet those feelings won't abide loo...

something awoken inside of me that I haven't felt in years eyes that touch my heart emotion that reveals that I'm alive a warmth deep that won't let go a hunger within that need that can't be denied I hear a voice sweet as a songbird and I can't walk away dreams in the night that somehow touch my so...

with an angel in sight yet the echo found its way on a distant shore and I hear its calling oh so clearly but I can't find my way to it even though that need is there simply in its undertaking but the how hasn't been found I keep looking but answers keep slipping by leaving me questioning why yes I ...
