The streets of Pompeii
All pave with gold

Listen to the wind,
Hear your soul...

Toddlers played in dry sand 
Hot sun made each cheek red
Ellen was their likable friend
Long before winter came
Enjoyed evenings with them
Always refusing to rest 
Fireflies were a child's game
Puppies chased them with haste
Aunt Lily was often bitten by bugs smelling perfume 
Vera told her not...

We are living in such a paved jungle!
There are miles of concrete and sidewalks
There are skylights and many skyscrapers,
but we really have to pay attention! 
At any corner are waiting: snakes, lions and tigers.
Oh poor walker, can't really enjoy peace and hope ...
It is just...

Walking Streets Paved With Nameless Stones


 I walk a street paved with nameless stones
 shadows of racing strangers I often meet
 are empty suits covering faceless bones
 Dark spirits that never dare to greet
 my hello with anything but angry tones

 Perhaps upon seeing my...

shrubby hills 
to right
a world of ocean
to left 
cranking pedals
smooth my trail,

can't hear anything,

not even conscious. 
wind surfaces to the drum

pedals push
and push while the 
ocean rocks and rolls

blue is my serenity,
wind is my savior,
pedals are angelic...

with a few little nicks and scratches
i walk on to another passion
like switching from the dirt road to the newly paved one
i hold my head up high and realize that the pain wont last
cause i think its already passed 
so then i look  down...

M-arch thirtieth day turns fine, 
A-fter the cold chill has gone; 
R-ain and clouds have turned
I-nto a warm morning sun.
S-hadows pass from view as the darkness turns into light; 
H-aze has just faded when the dawn is shining bright.

M-ist is now nowhere to find, 
O-ne...

Forty years of bad road,
  a path of broken glass

Potholed memories line my thoughts,
  devil waiting fast

Daring me—“Retrace your steps,
  your quickest way back home”

Forty years of shattered dreams,
  —the future paved in stone

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)...

Family, there are these quaint elder travelers 
Not? Yet a hundred years old, 
they've been gone from on top of this Earth 
Now they're walking streets of gold
So  now these travelers ain't got no shoes
And yet they got spirit and heart
For these travelers no...

kissing the underbelly of a white cloud
becoming perfectly serene in adequate comfort
thinking about you as you keep me warm by continuing to prove me wrong
i let too many things go, but this paradise will not be paved

rubbing the gaseous belly of a butterscotch bunny
enjoying the...

G-old-paved path in heaven
I-s in store for the flock; 
G-lorify the Lord God, 
I-n spite of the block.

B-elieve in the gold-paved path, 
A-im at the blissful abode; 
R-each the promised paradise, 
C-herish the glorious road.
E-verlasting gold-paved path
L-ets you think of true treasure; 
L-ife eternal is...

Paved in gold,
paved in gold.

No more sitting alone in front of the fire
awaiting fruition of dreams, awaiting my hearts desire.
Those days were swept away in the chilly falls of yesterdays.
It was a cold and windy season
yet all I can remember are gold leaves swirling without...

   The Israelites once worshiped a calf made of gold

Dwindling minds
breeds clarity,
exhaling paved trepidation, 
as gilded moon tides 
shadow my fading lucidity....

Who says stop? Road signs, yes. But those who don’t like what is happening. The abused, the neglected, the rejected. Often ladies who don’t want to be fondled by the men they’ve accepted as dates or trysts. There are those that say stop when the...
