Walled In And Out

Sitting in his cell,
He no longer sees the walls
-only lonely past.

In children's park,
Vines weave through the chain link fence
-forming leafy walls:
a cocoon for children's dreams
acted out on playing frames.

One Single Impression: Walls

Like Butterflies

Praying for the dream,
It's so close I can touch it!
-now to let it go.

In Search Of Zen

Just when path seemed clear,
Another gate would swing closed!
-dreams always distant.

Good Night...Sleep Tight?

Once she's put to bed,
She pops out and runs around
-'for she falls asleep.

O Gentle Muse...

Now sleep, poet, sleep,
Let me inspire your dreams now
-with verses and dance.

Poetic Dosing

At the artist's loft,
The poet reads in voice soft
-tender dreams of verse.

The Power Of Stories

Each night before bed,
I read to her of castles
- someday she'll find hers.

A Poet's Dream

Poet typing away
The night as verse comes to him
-someday a reader.

An Uncommon Visitor

In my dream last night,
You just stood there, stone silent
-needing me to know.

Night's Magic Of The Heart.

I dreamt many nights
Each night ended with morning
-those dreams to come true?

A Child's Bedtime Haiku

We read many books,
Of adventure and romance
-now time for the dreams.
