Beetles Partners

Into you I fall Copper ingots melting into a pool of emerald With you I will fly Feathered fur tufted upon a tapestry of wind Upon you I rest Life mating with life, partners procreated of love.

Admiration

May 4, 2016 by Dale 2 Comments

Hobbled by a rugby scrum Halted by the surgeon’s drum You drag, you limp, you fight You struggle with all your might Determined to walk without a brace You make physio a sprint to race Stretching, bending, building strong Pushing through pain all day long Your need for help hurts your pride Vulnerability affixes me…

My Every State of Mind

My State of Mind

You are My State of Mind You kiss me and I am a teenage boy being kissed for the first time You laugh and my world becomes a 70s rerun laughing on the carpet You hug me and I am an astronaut finding the cure for cancer on top of Everest You shine desire and…

Forever is a Time …

February 14, 2016 by Dale Leave a Comment

Forever is the light a sunset a candle the dim light upon our eyes I watch … it fades and time remains. Forever is a moment, a leaf the sky a season caught in two, I pray … to believe a cycle eternal. Forever is a time a watch a hand a life line wanders…

Forever

April 6, 2015 by Dale 2 Comments

Forever

In your eyes Forever is an eternity It’s time to be born Time to fade into tomorrow Become a star Burn from bright into night Spin a molten core Into permanent rock Turn snowflakes into ice Crown a mountain into clouds Trickle a stream into a river Wash my soul, embrace it pure Show my…

March 26, 2015 by Dale 4 Comments

Kintsugi 

January 20, 2015 by Dale 4 Comments

Kintsugi 

The ceramic of my skin cracked and cut the light of my breath explodes in crystals on the air The shards of my body bent and broken a twisted tambour laying in the snow My glaze is fractured in the mirror of my eyes reflecting a spirit lost in faith forlorn The forge of my…
