Reaching for You (Love in the Sand)

October 8, 2015 by Dale 3 Comments

My heart breaks the wind Holds permanent time for you Sweeps your eyes for the sky. My back holds our rings Ripples ridge my strength for you Lift your lips to my kiss. I move and remain Carve my body with a lover’s touch Fall upon your fingers. My hand is my love Fluid within…

Danger

October 7, 2015 by Dale 2 Comments

Danger Boundary

I was tempted to leave this as a “wordless” post for Wednesday, but upon reflection I thought this little expose deserved a few words to provide context. The signs below make clear the danger … but it is another danger that I find more poignant and feel compelled to write about: that is the fact…

Standing on the Cliff

October 5, 2015 by Dale Leave a Comment

Standing on a Cliff a boundary against oblivion blue pulls me away from the gold of your heart. Standing on a Ledge time opens like earthquake a chasm to infinity seconds away from your heart. Standing on the Edge the earth disintegrates beneath me bedrock turns to sand clinging, falling away from your heart. In…

A Changing Shield

September 29, 2015 by Dale 3 Comments

Lichen the Rock

I stand upon a shield – worn – hard My Canadian skin – pink – alive Lying beneath the sun – radiating – warm Picnics countertop – shining – smoothed By glacial time – frozen – cracked Fissures map the mantle – quartz – mirrors Catching autumn light – colours – captive Rose rock rolls…

Our World’s Slow Change

September 27, 2015 by Dale 13 Comments

Changing Leaf

We walk the trails side by side Smell the moisture slip from leaves Our love grows strong hand in hand. The light dips behind the trees A steely equinox catches the sun Turns the season upon the earth. Veins pull  blood from extremities Suck it back into the trunks Life girds itself for winter’s bite….

Destination Love

September 22, 2015 by Dale 5 Comments

We travel the boardwalk A seabreeze caught hand in hand Write our love in the sand With permanent chalk. We travel life’s bridge To the drum of our feet Our hearts resonate with each beat A future nears across the ridge. We travel the blue sky above Cut the clouds from the light Pack them…

Baby Sea

September 16, 2015 by Dale 7 Comments

Baby Sea

Sunset licks a dying sky Baby blue washed in pink hue Foam born waters laps. *     *    * Apricot blush sipped Blue waters rise into sky Sea rose rests on sand. *     *    * Warm sand drinks summer sky Stratus quenched in baby sea Heaven is here with you. All text and images © Dale…
