A Study in Yellow ~ No. 3: Sunshine

December 22, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

Yellow Sunshine(c)

  “A Study in Yellow #3: Sunshine” Through a window Water colours splash Touch my lips Wash my eyes Autumn grass is born Rusted and gold Pulled from sunshine bright. All text and images © Dale Schierbeck See more of others’ submissions to the Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge on “Yellow.”

In the Twinkle of the Tongue

December 13, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

Twinkle Splash of Light

In the twinkle of the splash Lighted rings hold us tight A tongue erupts from the gash Imprints our eye with silver light And as the pebble falls below Heaven paints the liquid fabric Wrap my dreams in sunshine glow Wisps of graphic that flit like magic. All text and images © Dale Schierbeck See…

Lost and Found

Lost and Found3

Lost starving in an iron labyrinth of  kiosks Found darting through the scurry of strange feet Lost to the offer of escape Found staring through the open door Lost your fear Found my playfulness Lost a country Found a home Lost a mother Found resilience Lost your place sleeping at my feet Found your way…

What Man is Made by Woman

July 24, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Oh what man is made by woman A spirit made of flesh A psyche breathed with life. Oh what body is made by touch Desire fired in a forge Hardened pure upon a kiss. Oh what heart is made by love A metronome made to move Sets life to swing with purpose. © Dale Schierbeck…

In Your Love I Choose to Stay (Lyrics)

July 21, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

A song without the music is, well, just the lyrics … but hence the rhyme in these words. So while I continue to strum my guitar and contemplate a rhythm and melody to go with these words, please hum along and provide your own beautiful lilt to fill them out wherever you ‘hear’ them. ~ In…

Fear Not

April 18, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Fear notIn breath there is hopeDon’t trembleIn arms there is strengthDon’t stumbleIn legs there is a wayDon’t despair In the jaw there is courage Don’t weepIn eyes there is compassionDon’t fallWith my back I will carryDon’t quit In thought there is resolve Don’t retreat In touch there is connection Don’t subtract In morning there is a day Don’t…

His News

April 4, 2014 by Dale 6 Comments

The news: a bark that bites through my heart Words on a screen scratching at my soul My world shakes and it flings me down I choke on the hairy diagnosis And it claws at my breaking eyes. The clock chimes, the hands move, Eighteen years are now ticking

hope caught within a tear

March 31, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Standing on broken glass A crystal dream fractured Into kaleidoscopic fractals Chaos streams in the light Ruby shards pressed Into my dripping feet Its sharpness cuts my soul Bleeds my heart dry … And yet all my mind can see Are visions of tenderness Smiles and gentle kisses Sparkles in an eye Warmth upon a…
