Sadness
Vague and spectral
as a dimming taper
Limned in darkness
Like a departing hearse
Into ash
Like burning paper
Life lived in
Dim shadow of verse

Images Born In Crucible
spectral images
and images of light
born from heart
of huge
reservoir
of life
experiences
from souls
who dared live
crucible of lives

Ephemeral Wishes Take Flight
yellow petals subtle changes
one day transformation clicks
into white honeycomb wishes
fades into spectral stems
preparations need seeds
in readiness to roam skies
