Outside my window
A gray, thunderstruck tree
Sags with bent shoulders
Bare-branched and anxiously bowed
It tilts, as if into a future
Where you might return

Love and Possibility
On the hill, the sky is promised
Over the sea, the horizon of a fantastic land
And in your laughter, eternal joy carouses.
Yet, between the space of our joined hands
Resides the feeling they are merely shades of.
Tryst
The sound of your voice stirs
The singing strings
Of a clandestine love affair
In the eaves of darkness
We meet palm-to-palm
And whisper of many tomorrows
Each more brilliant than the last
Jewels spilling between us
Like endless possibilities
