12 POEMS

HEART PORTALS
That rare poem
he wrote...
which could enter
the heart
through portals
barred to words
SUN POCKET
Each night stars were screwed
into their blissful sockets.
Each night comets flew....
most ecstatic rockets
While hung on night's throat the moon...
a shimmering shining locket
Desiring only to slip into
her sun's warm heart pocket.
(to N A Lynch)
ZEN MULTIPLIER
Tara is the emptiness
through which flute music pours.
Tara is desireless..
the zeros which
multiply other numbers.

ARROWS OF RAIN
Are rain arrows
shot by
rainbows?

MYRIAD PATHS TO LIBERATION
Like caterpillars who eat themselves comatose
and then sleep as God weaves their wings
some are liberated after shedding their bodies.
In myriad ways God back to God all of us brings

POINTING THE WAY
The low guru river
from afar is invisible,
its green line of
disciple willows
visible

STAINED GLASS APERTURE
October
when each leaf
is a stained glass aperture
through which the sun pours
into the cathedrol of autumnal light

UNCLOSETED SKELETONS
He uncloseted his skeletons.
They'd been ripping his clothes.
Footnote: Unjust wars create
many skeletons for those who
promote and prosecute them.

TRUMPING TRUMPETS
Winter king's cruel soul
tries to keep his cold control
Gripping are his icy tentacles
as they hoard his power pentacles.
But green bud grows
as rain plumps it.
Spring will blow
trumping trumpets
REQUITED
All unrequited love will be requited.
All good wishes into life ignited.
All the blind..newly sighted.
All dark places slowly lighted.
UNBIDDEN
Time reveals all love that's hidden.
Time fulfills all love forbidden
By God's mercy earth laws
overridden
Unexpected, suddenly
love comes unbidden.
JADE SARIS
Over the shoulders of winter fruit trees..
April threw pink shawls light as a breeze...
Over the shoulders of winter fruit trees..
April threw pink shawls light as a breeze
but two moons later they were tossed
for jade saris
with birds embossed
