Hidden Spring

The forest was her throne with a crown, of sticks and stone
jewels, lay in the dirt where the seeds of fern would grow.
The trees remained her castle towers, kept safe inside the moat,
her hollow voice spoke as the wind and to the river's ends she follows.

My Own Backyard

It was like, no it was a dream,
The vividness is lingering.
As horror in our thoughts or not,
Gave way to dawn and drawn out plot.
The little ones were angels then.
They are now and will be again.

Poetry Month 2012: "Spaces In-Between"

Sometimes we get so wrapped up with all our

to-dos and to-dont's and obligations and obsessions

that we forget about our hopes and dreams

and especially the spaces in-between.

You can't get from point A to Z

without the twenty-four other letters.

So take all the steps,

even the ones you you're not likely to remember,

because without them there would be no ripples

and those across the ocean would never know you were there.

Poetry Month 2012: Shakespearean Sonnet

Inspired by one of the scenes from my novel Oblivion.

You have hair as black as a raven's tail,

how could I not think you were a demon?

With golden eyes assuming I will fail,

but no, I now know that I will not run.
This cathedral is full of the shadows,

the ones that I foolishly created.

You mere spirit from the path that I chose

cannot understand how long I've waited.

Not empty words, nor this darkness outside

could shake me from all that I believe in.

You could have been truthful, you could have lied,

neither will change this remission of sins.

Words from a cat are merely a token

of how Hell wished that I could be broken.

Poetry Month 2012: "Clockwork Thoughts"

In my long attempts to come up with an idea for animation, I imagined up this:

Poetry Month 2012: Acrostic Limerick

A sunny day brought out a rabbit, it

Put all his eggs in a basket, it

Ran down the street,

I heard a car



Looks like it needed a casket.

Poetry Month 2012: Haiku

Acrostic haiku w/speedpaint

This month is all about poetry.

That doesn't mean I'm gonna rhyme.

Imaginary

My name is all over it

This month is my month.
