It was warm in March
After winter's tundra cold
We reveled in it
Winter would not come back
But with April
Winter's chill again took hold
The warmth of March
A dream, in winters attack
May came, unseen
almost missed amid our tears
A gentle warmth
That melted our hearts with love
'til summer's heat
Flamed our passions into fears
All consuming.
We could not rise above.

For Elizabeth
These are poems inspired by the love of my life.
Communion
This was originally published in the Pierce College Poetry Club annual.
Crossing the Arkansas at Morning Rush
We move like snails,
I in my shell, you in your levees.
Hell's Shore
Down darkened halls
With padded walls
And no way out
High Mountains
I have been to the high mountains
That have no fear of men
I Feel Like a King Today
My mind is flying higher than the realm of men
Melencholia
Seeing: Seeing:
Aimless thoughts in flight
The Barbarian's Landing
In the gentle breeze that cooled that distant shore,
A quiver stood, and fear road high.
Three Pieces in Time-
ONE
In the insistence of the moment
My mind was stopped
Time Moves Forward
Time moves forward
Closing vaulted doors to yesterday;
Tree Poem
Strange sounds reverberating in my ear
Muffling voices and slowing my pace
Warm
It was warm in March
After winter's tundra cold
