Come enjoy this beautiful love poem!
When I close my eyes
I see your face
Radiant smile
Chestnut curls
Warm eyes
Desire is there
A yearning in my heart
To explore the longing in yours
Will you take me there?

“Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished.”
― Dean Koontz, A Big Little Life: A Memoir of a Joyful Dog
At any given moment
you must keep me in sight,
lest you think I may slip away
like a dream of chasing hares
on a summer’s day
But little Jax know
I will always be here,
to calm your fears
and keep you safe
Like a butterfly you flit
from room to room
then you race
to the wildflower garden
with nose to the ground
trying to pick up my scent
to find out where I went
And when at last
you track me down
your treasure found,
like a long ago buried bone
Oh what pure joy abounds!
Delight fills your sleek body
when you wag your curled tail
You put on such a show
panting and dancing
those dark…

Never enough whiskey
3,000 mile away from you and I am so damn alone. I loved someone once and love wasn’t enough. Now the whiskey can’t make me forget her. I learn too late, love be gone, love will break your heart till we can’t breathe no-more.
Dancing Coyote
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
Just words
I called your name
I called your name standing on the Monterey pier. The stars didn’t listen to my prayer.
I recalled a memory, a blessing, a forsaken place and tangle web of a dangerous dance.
I was the moon, you were the sun. A eclipse of two hearts create a celestial sea where we stole seconds, minutes.
Dear Celia, I remember your skin of lily white, your eyes of ocean blue. We danced in love shadows and we knew the folly of our deeds.
I wrote you a million words of poesy, I aspired to see your face again. I remembered, we prayed, we laughed and we cried. I remember your coy smile and your last words to me.
“I loved you for a…

These early mornings
I’ll attest
are good for me
the very best
The gentle rain
just after dawn
with still the air
of new day born
And solitude
where here about
a whisper sounds
just like a shout
I relish this
the quietning time
as it is almost
wholly mine

Bloom,
Even if you are in the abyss...
Kiss the darkness,
Fill it with light...
With a heart full of positivity,
Don’t leave any room for negativity...
Navigate through the pain,
Be your roadmap to happiness...
Set your heart free,
Let it find a way through the cage...

“When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” Rumi
My Quiet Treasury I sat inside my quiet treasury of peaceful self amidst a field of reliquaries sculpted from dreams, with the eyes of the hidden ones watching closely, sentinels of the night in communities of acceptance. Amidst a field of reliquaries sculpted from dreams, along narrow stone paths of adventure unknown, sentinels of the night in communities of acceptance who silently speak in defence of all that is valued. Along narrow stone paths of adventure unknown I plumbed the forest's deep guilty pleasures who silently speak in defence of all that is valued, and offered as generous joy overflowing. I plumbed the forest's deep guilty pleasures with the eyes of the hidden ones watching closely, and offered as…

Deep as the Mariana Trench
The finest opus of Nightingales
A paradise where birds
sip nectar from petals that
unfurl just for you
Let me leave my mark
Roses beneath the snow
Lovers
Caught in a mock sinners lullaby
Nowhere To Go, Nothing To Do
Boredom
Restless
Anxious
CDC recommends staying at home
most restaurants are closed
only place I go to
is my doctor
it’s been this way for almost a year
winter is here
it’s harder to breathe
with my COPD
cold weather makes my joints
more painful
so I write my poetry
and listen to music
I used to write my poetry
while I drank wine
but I can’t drink now
because of the medications I’m on
So far I have not been infected by Covid-19
I have had the first shot of vaccine
I wear a mask and use hand sanitizer
I no longer drive
due to the medications
so Susan takes me to the doctor
and the pharmacy
God has blessed me
and He and Susan
are watching over me and protecting me
except for my legs, back and COPD
I’m in pretty good…
