April 25, 2021 by Dale 3 Comments

rain drops on a leaf

I lost myself in that conducted moment’s quiet awaiting the Sunday matinee when rising a canopy of batons began to sway counting the postured orchestra stirs black and white alive aroused with the tympani of striking drums beating the tapestry of my solitude flashing insights into a parallel world, divided, sparking a river dance of…

Captured on the Grass

April 15, 2020 by Dale 6 Comments

Captured by the blue grass on the lawn we lay in the sunshine of banjo rhythms harmonica and Kentucky pain and pleasure gathers our world in the shambles of a grind guttural delivered from a foot stomping stage you can’t bury us in the memory of winter spent it is a sweet Indian summer, sticky…

I Hear Your Call

April 21, 2017 by Dale Leave a Comment

Blossoms

I hear your call — beneath pink blossoms I fell in love among your pollen listening to your voice singing You belong among the wildflowers you pressed into your longing face you closed your eyes inhaled the fragrance we shared — I whispered back behind a hidden tree I have seen no other Who compares…

Inspiration

Inspiration3

Misshapen pearls Cast as lovers’ notes Upon the water’s tapestry A baroque palette of sound Paints romance On chorded waves.   Indeed, J.S. Bach never sounded better in my life. A moment captured for a lifetime. A lifetime lived in a moment. All text and images © Dale Schierbeck See more of others’ submissions to…

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…
