A New Song
The song of the piano was a soft kiss in moonlight, The lilt of its sonata became the soft gasp of romance, As tender tones beguiled the beating of the heart. The breath of the piano was a serenade of delight As the welcome touch of mystery led me into the dance Our bodies swaying to the magic,...

Missed Opportunity
On a gentle summer night, On a shortcut to nowhere, I met a passing traveller Looking for her path. The final fragrance of the light Seemed to linger in her dark hair I said "I'd like to be your lover" And she answered with a laugh: "Thank you for asking You seem like a nice fellow And I guess I...

The Statue
Caressed by the frigid tears Of a forgotten God He stands under a sunless sky, Waiting for something to appear Some sign, some fateful nod In the direction to try. Cascaded with gelid kisses From an unforgiven Earth He glares into the concrete clouds And carelessly dismisses Her gifts as things of...

The Dancers
The rhythm of the moment pulses into the darkness, The dancers entranced into a world of their own Their faces intent, and yet open and artless: Nothing to disguise because the floor is theirs alone. Eager figures sway to the passion of the moment, Hard bodies whirling to the softness of the song A...

Painting In The Dark
Tender touches, steeped in moonlight, Trace forms that we can barely see, Sultry kisses that taste of midnight Court an enigmatic ecstasy, Silhouettes lost in sensation Find the shadows light enough To paint an image of elation From the palate of our love.

Hobo
He was yesterday's man, empty and tired, Festooned with the remains of glories past, Faded trophies from when he was the one And fierce, arrogant passions fired An incandescent delight he thought would last. Glazed, dazed he wondered where the passion had gone, As tremored hand raked grizzled hair...

Summer Storm
The slow heavy heat heralds the thunder, As a razor blade breeze parts the tepid air With the dirt rich fragrance of the rain. Cavern dark eyes flash with the wonder Concrete clouds build beneath their stare As the whiplash of the wind flays eager flesh again. The singing of the wind foretells the...

The Park
She meandered through the park beneath a honeysuckle sun Her raven hair kissed by the lazy breeze, Velvet eyes nurtured a mystery, something newly begun, Unrevealed and unrevealing, it tantalised and teased. The chuckle of the fountain was a glimmer in the distance A raucous party of squirrels...

Listening to Bobby Bare
The sandpapered rumble of a song flavours the sunset, Cigar smoke melancholy greets the weeping of the stars A last come and get me rich with the emptiness of regret Echoes into the evening, harmonising with the cars. The plaintive tune fades as the sky bleeds into twilight The city finds it's voice...

Perceptions
Gaudy dusk's mosaic bruises the tender sky While the grim and bloodied clouds glower and frown, And shed their caustic tears of helpless rage, I watch the sullen creep of night and wonder how I feel. The tender sweep of sunset gilds the paths that angels fly And the naïve and gentle cloud curtsies...
