As the rain falls down, as the rain falls down
An almost perceptable sigh is heard
As it soaks in, soaks in, all around.

I saw the wind in your in your eyes,
And you saw me see it
So you looked away.
Now I wonder where you've drifted to,
Like a yellow leaf with brown . . . more

Another tune for the bard my friend
Another pluck of the string,
Another dip, another spin
Another tip of the hat and then...

There has to be a poem somewhere
about the way the morning sun
paints the trees that perfect shade of pink,
inscribing its rosy signature in a soft blushing sky,
punctuated by tiny flitting . . . more

Menghibahkan was a good mama.
She was young but attentive
And worked hard for her children,
Planting rice and sweet potatoes.
She taught her young ones
To sing the tribal . . . more

Close your eyes
Listen
Here in the leaves
Now in the "whys"
There in the song
Of the sweet sad owl
Near in the hollow
Of a lone wolf's howl

Not yet day, Not quite dreaming
Lying half awake at 3 a.m.
Listening to circles in the sand
Thoughts of you drift by
My sleepy mind's eye.
And even . . . more

Think mermaids and dolphins
Used to stroll
Hand in Hand
Upon the land?
Think mountains were made

The sky held the moment
Between a star and the moon
And the song of a whippoorwill
Fell through
A hole in the last note

There'll come sometime, somewhere will be a door
Rough hewn grain that opens to wooden floor
The smell of home will fill up every room
And out the window you will . . . more

The way the trees were so thick they hid the sky
And our hearts beat hard there in the midst of the chase

He liked that old hat,
Lived in it.

Garden in it
Drink sweet tea
