Silver light danced on waves
Under skies of
Mercurial clouds,
And she pranced
On the sand
Tail up high
Free and proud.

From shade onto sunlight
From old bricks
To plastered walls,
She gazed out
To the terrace
And a horizon
Pregnant with
Potential
Rainfall.

Climb the mountainous
Martian landscape,
Big wheels strong
In the sandbox.
Come and rescue
The poor shovel,
Buried amidst alien
Rocks.

Above it soars,
Large feathers splayed,
A messenger
Of times ahead.
With blessings given,
Seasons’ change,
It rises
O’er the home range.

Take heart
Even when reality
Would bleed it dry
With injustice
And stale pride.
Be heartened
By the strength
Of those who wait out
The belligerent
And will not see
Truth and decency
Denied.

What will be
Of the day,
He so wanted
To say,
If you suddenly
Drain
All the color away?
Will the birds’ calls
Remain?
Will leaves still
With wind sway?
Will it be
As before
Or fade wholly
To gray?

The broken ice
In shards
Of glass,
Pierces to melt
A pond’s
Cold heart.

Take a rest.
Rest your weight.
Old or new
There for you.
Scratched by love
Left by hate
It will let
The world wait
As you breathe
Quiet in
Quiet out
Soul inflate
Calm create.

Through summer’s heat or winter’s snows
He stony-faced
Nonetheless blows
A flow of life
That never slows.
The step of people passing by
Is all he knows.

‘Twas the day of a storm
Tide was soon to claim sand
And you sought urgent refuge
On somewhat dry-land.
Not a foot from my chair
You stood near, you stayed calm.
Maybe you knew ’twas a place
Where you’d come to no harm.
