Third Honeymoon




Color of cyan, turquoise, Cassel earth,

these jeweled compositions

still speak 

behind muted mattes


les dames d'abord


their glaze translucent 

like the rolling waves 

of

a sky and sea motif.


les dame d'abord




les dames d'abord



Clashing with ancient winds on rock

pummeled

to 

fine sand



les dames d'abord


liquid pigment blue


lifts mists

vaporous, merciful.


les dames d'abord



A blue view

sky by changing sky

 shadows our years

and 

behind a gray farewell


from

Carmel-by-the-Sea

sets another sun

this side 

of 

paradise.

What I've Been Looking For


The sun

has cast shadows

via

on my life

as 



When I walk during the day 


past a particular row 

of homes


and my shadow drops

beside me 
 



via



via

 
I see them -



via


I see  

the family members

that once walked with me

during my childhood 

in 

California. 
 
   
via

 
But the light of day


via


and 

the light of night


via

  
wanes with time.


via


Yet the shadows still follow

calling you

to reach out

to them just once more.
 
It's impossible

but this is what 

 art is for:

to bring back

the light

that once fell 

on both of you.
