This the blog of a would-be poet. As often as I am able, I will post a new poem. I may post sonnets, Haiku, other forms of poetry, and also free verse. Along with each poem, I will post the piece of music from which I drew inspiration. I would make the request that you start the music before you begin reading the poem. Music and Poetry are so closely tied, I believe they are best experienced together, and I encourage you to listen and read at the same time.

Storms
Water cascades down the glass -
Trees are watching… watching.
Weeping of lamenting grass -
Clouds are falling… falling.
Thunder makes the landscape shake -
Lights are flashing… flashing.
Winds snatch at a double take -
Vines are lashing… lashing.
My heart questions renaissance
At the frightening changes,
But I know the earth’s response
Results of One’s good graces.
Grisly sight - the land’s rebirth -
Until you learn its sacred worth.
