Untitled April
```
Moon and cherry tree
Together in bloom,
Full.  Moon and blossoms

Paths III

Entering His Heavenly Mansion
On Ascension’s lifted wings of Light
We learn of our newly appointed duty
In the ever eternal fight,
And manifest the Kingdom’s beauty
By sowing Man’s Divine Perfection
With Universal Mind, Will and Love,
So all may reap the Resurrection
To our Life’s Immortal plane above.

Venus

After many centuries in abeyance

And chilling the superficial warmth
Of all shallow rooted relationships.

To dwell, either in past
Or future illusory times
Of lives importantly lived
Only fill diviners’ coffers.

Insects and birds sing
An autumnal opera
On Afton Mountain

Passionate in the moment
With no thought for tomorrow

“A death has been knocking at the door”

A death has been knocking at the door,
But I refuse to listen and only ignore;
For Destiny is worth keeping
These two feet terra firmly seeking
To extend the never ending Dream
Beyond personal reality.

Hippo Rock

Another wave washes 
The Hippo clean
Of perching shore birds

Overhead the seasonal wave
Of migrating ducks and geese
Struggle to reorganize
Their disintegrating formations
In the erratic April breezes

Dream Fragment 28

I stood alone before the moon
Waning in the sun wondering
If my shadow would disappear
And then pulled the hands of the clock
From my pocket burying them
Under the rocks without number
While digging and planting this field
