Canopy

A specter of sun,
Breaking through dark canopies,
Lighting roads once dark,
In the light all is too stark.
Shine through the canopy of my mind,
Bring light to deepest roots,
Shine on till the roots touch the soil.
Don't become too bright, don't melt, don't fret,
Rise over the horizon,
And never be swallowed by the sea,
Rise and Stay,
Like all of life served onto a tray,
Rise over the tree's canopy,
As elegant shafts of light in my mind play.

The long winter's night has been left to fray,
This long sought summer,
Please stay...

The Manic Road

The manic road meets the frenzied sky,

As words in indelible ink sprawl the sunset,

Like the most beautiful evening,

Of the ones from childhood’s treasury.

The manic road is long gone,

Yet it appears in my dreams,

To wake me in cold sweat,

To remind me of all that frenzy.

So to the manic road I have returned,

And sped down it ,

To the point of no return,

And now sleep does not break in cold sweat.

The manic road now runs within me,

Showing me how to walk other roads,

As for words sprawled in indelible ink,

Some words cannot be erased.
