rain patters on roof
chilled to the bone we sip tea
talk of days since passed
***
we begin to warm
as we dry by the fireside
time stops not the rain
***
relive the moment
we capture it but briefly . . .

John Banville's The Sea is a novel that reads like poetry. Every word is carefully chosen to create powerful images and feelings. It's not hard to see why this was chosen for the most . . .

on the sacred path
silence of the dense forest
descends so gently

moment out of time
absorbing nature's powe
peaceful breeze through pine

scent of sagebrush hovers
in crisp desert night air
mesquite-kissed meat grills slowly
lonesome coyote only sound
save for twinkling stars
glimmering against deep black night

waiting for flight watching
hundreds of untethered souls
not clear if they are coming or going
hanging on to threadbare dreams
next trip will bring what they seek
love adventure money . . .

promises a little . . .

wiped from eyes awake
to enjoy spring morn

sweet lilacs blossom
first warm air like snug blanket
world makes a fresh start

I wander in the woods
sharp scent of pine
nature's pure essence.
Boughs high above
dense canopy of green
provide solace to me below.

emitting fleeting . . .

Skin just warm to the touch
Light ocean zephyr just enough
To take the edge off day's heat
Dune grass rustles complacently
I look out to the vast sea
Gently rolling . . .
