then comes the storm

after the earth quakes
a semblance of calm returns
and then comes the storm

your love

world’s spinning steadied…

moon’s mutual attraction…

not unlike your love

~csr

our night-lite

evening’s emergence

with tender song of crickets

the stars our night-lite

~csr

semblances of life

she folds the corners
meticulously forming...
semblances of life

~csr

inspired by Stephanie's art

a thought of you

the other night

full moon shone over the clouds

and a thought of you

~csr

like hordes of locust

devour all in their path

my want consumes me

~csr

unspoken words

the moon hides it’s face

and darkness falls upon us

like unspoken words

~csr

your beauty

moon, sea, earth and stars

boast endless splendor… yet all

want, for your beauty

~csr

Trim The Time

sitting in the shade
the mowers are cutting grass
our  words trim the time

~csr

withered by twilight

we are like blossoms

what brilliance in the first light

withered by twilight

~csr

through the cracks

chisel-stone surface

yet through your micro-fractures

life springs through the cracks
