Out of autumn skies they come,
  .  .  .  Angels with blue wings.

After bloom of cherry trees,
  .  .  .  Petals fall in silence.

Always bays to things that come,
  .  .  .  Sticky gum on shoe.

Once knew a shell of a man
  .  .  .  Ocean waits for him.

Yearns to be anything real,
  .  .  .  Keeps painting a smear.

Hustle in garden  .  .  .
Choice of bird houses ready,
  .  .  .  Only sparrows nest.

Blue mountains on fire,
Magenta light falls from sky,
Quarrels of the Gods.

Moon in eastern sky
And mist melds mountains with trees,
Lantern is sailing west.

Cloud of pillows under sheet,
New sun unwelcomed.

Sad corporate man  .  .  .
Real life just keeps passing by,
  .  .  .  Good thing he's clueless.

Loon, moans in distance,
Grey mountain smears the pale sky,
  .  .  .  Not even moon breaks.

Falcon roams the sky—
A poet has come and gone,
  .  .  .  Even moon searches.

In arms we entered,
Her red hair lit all in Pub,
  .  .  .  My firing squad.

One morn we both loved  .  .  .
Her closed eyes opened with tears,
  .  .  .  Rain pelting windows.

Rain drops falling on still pond,
  .  .  .  Ancient melody.

America's golden star—
Chinese junk sails east.

I trembled zipping her,
Cascades of hair— rosewater,
Poured into a dress.

A joyous wind wakes my eyes,
Her dress on the floor.

Little dull birdies  .  .  .
Love own songs by mirror pond,
  .  .  .  Graceful swan sails by.

Pale, vanity' s reign,
Pablum, overtaking sense,
Hello poetry.

Eyes, shimmer with lake,
We dipped our toes in water,
New man, new woman.

Dumpster diving Spain,
Bought into austerity— easy,
America is next.

Eyes empty and dry,
Sweet gift of blue autumn sky,
Tears lost in the rain.

Whispers in morning  .  .  .
Gentle rays enter our room,
Eyes smiling with sun.

Sun sighed— she arose,
Light words no longer existed,
Her eyes bloom smiling.

Phases of the flashing moon,
Turning heads of owl.

Home investors, speculators,
  .  .  .  Both fell into holes.

Man, woman interacting,
Child just loves flower.

At pond she undressed,
Clothes fell as joyful sun rose,
Blushing— twice naked.
