Let us go then
You and I
To explore this world
That is our oyster
Effervescence of being
Joyful skipping
Delight me
With you and I
Let us go
Then and
Rock this party
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
This interlude
Between us
Becomes an embrace
Of the thing that
Connects us
Keeps us grounded
To this thing that is us
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Your happiness is
Mine
Complete
In our
Counter currents
That encircle
The Moon
The Sun
The planets
And all spaces
In between
The miles and miles
To go before I sleep
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame - 48 x 36 inches
The two of us
In the garden
Of being
I love you
Even when
You’re not mine
This duality of each other
Encircles our energies
Even when
You’re not here
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Your undying devotion
Becomes me
Twinkle of twilight
The sun’s red fury
Burning bright like a
Tiger in the night
For my love
Burns for you
At the altar
Of worship
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Daydream
Moonbeam
eye in the sky
omnipresent life
vibrating through my soul
singing lullabies
to my sleepy head
clouds drift by for eternity
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame - 48 x 36 inches
Salutations
Of new dawn
Reflections of your face
Beaming through the sky
Bouncing off mine
Illuminating the reflections
Of life between
Our sunrise and sunset
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 36 x 48 inches.
You are my night sky
When I’m on a foreign planet
Somewhere in the world
Of universes
That are the pearls
Strung on a necklace
Of our lives
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Sacred company
You and me
Solitude within
This space of content
Envelope me in your soul’s
Essence –
Deep darkness of night
That keeps its secrets
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
This offering I bring you
Like devotion
Is my salvation
From a world
Of indifference
Where supplication to
False gods
Leaves us blind
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
This space between us
Doesn’t exist
Jump the divide
The gap
That is the circumstances
In our lives
Here, now
You complete me
The circuitry of us
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
This family of mine
Is yours
Slender beings
Lightness and revelry
Brilliance that knows
No boundaries
All lined up
Eclectic energies
Beaming through the world
The sunshine that
Marks us all
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 36 x 48 inches.
Open arms
Enfold
And reply back again
Like eyes mirroring
The same laugh lines
Wildly divergent lives
Intertwined
Filaments of entanglements
Crisscross the sky
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Here I gather
Thee
And mine
Our joys
Our sorrows
And all the living
Webs we weave
In between
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 36 x 48 inches.
Build my solitude
Sacred space
In the tall mountains
Fog of peaceful respite
From the troubles
In my mind
Where the world disappears
Into floating clouds
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Portals peering
From the fog
Beckoning the dream
Of escape to unknown
Worlds
Seeking the other
That was left behind
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
Teardrops
Falling on my head
Your shoulders
Are my respite
Seeking sanctuary
In your arms
Where warmth is a bird
Whose song echoes
Off my beating heart
Acrylic on canvas in natural wood frame — 48 x 36 inches.
I felt you
Slink into my orbit
Eavesdropping on
My state of mind
The condition of
My heart
Slowly playing a
Guitar
Strumming a hum
So soft it knew
Your vibration
From the beginning
Of hello
Desert moon
Strung
Like a medallion
Hung above
Valley so low
My heart dropped
A beat
When I recognized
Your face
In this
Reckoning
Stretch high to
The stars
Reach for me
Beyond the sky
Our limited lives
Break open
This reciprocation
This evocation
This nakedness
Break open
I lay down
Like prayer
Prostrate
At your feet
As you repose
In moonlight
As if you
Owned the night
But you don’t
Own me
Just my heart’s
Wild beat
Joy I
Revelry is
Sunbeams
On my shoulder
Your hands
Wrapped around
My waist in
Bird song
Joy II
A bird song
Sings every time
You are near
Or far away
Across blue seas
Here you are
Always
With me
Concentric
Concerted
Conjoined
Almost
Until you roll away
Like a stone
Only to return
Again
To carry me
Forward
Through the sky
Skies I
Skies shape memories
Of you and me
Floating like
Butterflies on the breeze
Touching space
Flitting through
Stars shining bright
Beyond the daylight
Skies II
Beloved, sing your blues
With me
Let your sadness be
Cry your tears
Look and see
Me
In clouds floating by
I have never left your side
Which way
Always toward
My heart
The crossroads
Where
A moon star
Lover awaits
My return
Love drops
Like an atomic bomb
My eyes
Crisscross the sky
Lovers echo words
In the sound wave
Catch me
I’m falling into
Oblivion with you
Where I begin
And you never end
The road that divides
Circles back again in time
To the place it all began
Here on a dusty road
The desert fox
All ears and whiskers
Twitches in the golden light
Delight me with the presence
Of your body
Your mind
Your soul
The wanderings of your heart
Hold my hand
Sail the oceans with me
Carouse together in the skies
Be with me in this circle
Of enchantment around us
Lover, pray for me
As I descend into madness
For want of you
This bite of betrayal
Embrace me in your arms
Tell me it's not true
Even if you lie
I lean into you
Across the divide
Of the seas
The mountains
The memories of long ago
Wanderings through the world
We never went on
But, if only in our minds
The hollow of your neck
My sacred space
Refuge at night
When the winds howl
And my blood flows
How you turn to me
And say it will be okay
Because you know
You will always be there
Who are you but a mirror
Accompanying my embrace
Whispering words of enchanting
Songs – faraway foreign lands
Adventures of gold and silver
Threading through our intertwined hands
The resurrection of our love
Prophesied long before
The wizened tree
On the path
Where new growth dawns
Like a wave of devotion
Our resurrection follows
In its wake
Love is like
Splendor in the grass
Light reflections of
Divine springtime
Eternal embrace
Of flowers
Raindrops
And whispering songs
Of the wind
Snow star worlds
Of falling planets
And descending skies
Where you and I collide
Like atoms in a sea
Of electrons blown to bits
From the creation
Of the universe
Your succulent mouth
Spoon me like cherries
And fig trees
Waving in the breeze
Plump and heavy
With want
Your face in the crowd
Is like sun
On my shoulders
A sliver of light
Hot
Burning
Sensation
I don’t notice
Until you’re gone
Into the shadows
Your return
Warmth on my lips
You complete me
Not in the way
You think
But because you
Are not me
Not mine
We sing a love song
Wound together
Like thieves
Keystone to my heart
You keep me locked
Away from delusion
The sounds of night
Scratches in the trees
A hawk skrying in the sky
Our destiny intertwined
Like doves
Hovering above the Lord’s disciple
All the things - that scare me
You light up my life
Like a carefree bird
That rests on my shoulder
A constant companion
Whose heart is as wide
As song
You float on the winds
That claim my soul
Calling the open
Sky, empty highways
And the wild dawn
Sentinels stand
In the desert
Like ritual
Foregone yesteryear
Ghosts of
Thunderstorms coming
Washing away
All sin
Riding the wind
Like banshees
Stretch for miles
Between us and
Sand and
Sky and
Sea - a universe
Of stars and
Possibilities all
In love with
Eternity
Flower. Bloom.
You open my spirit
Like a flower
In full bloom
Aching for light
Singing even
In moonlight
Stretching through
The eternity of time
Cup. Flow.
This cup overflows
A cornucopia
Of moments
Soft blessings
Pitter patter
Goes my heart
When you catch me
Laughing with delight
Yellow and white iconic shapes remind me of a house and its landscape, and the inter-relationships between them. This inspired the title of this painting and its accompanying poem.
Our house
In our house

calm respite
from the storms
of the world
where sunlight shines
bright eternal
wrapped around our beings

Moon Drops
The moon drops so
low in the sky
when you leave
I wander the universe
looking for you
then there you are
always where you were

This dark blue and white painting was inspired by the full moon setting over the ocean and the light that reflects across the waves. This is a scene I often witness from my home town of Encinitas, California. The poem was inspired by the title of this piece.
Moon Shadows
Shadows
slink across the ocean
in moonlight
shimmering
in our eyes
between our lives
and ripples
through time
reverberating in motion
with our hearts

The Journey
Of my heart
Starts with
Rest on your shoulders
Soft caress
In midnight skies
Gathering through
The mists of time
Lover
Lover, lay by my side
And sing to me
A song of sorrow
And joy
Of fear and hope
Of the journey
Between our hearts
And all its vagaries
