slow evolution
of muscular peaks
earth meets the sky
and butterflies dance
in a forgotten valley
a landscape of dreams
so majestic and tall
hiding secrets
in untamed glory
of you and I
we walked the shore
my shadow and I
untrammeled beauty
white crescent of beach
crashing waves thunder
in a pyramid of silver
her carpet of blue
lonely desolation
as sand castle dreams
melt into the sea
in majestical thoughts
I swallow the sounds
of you and I

pendulous
on a string
essence in black
innuendo’s of
nothing to be said
searching for that
magic key to
euphoria
where the sun
sets every night
I aim my bow
against the sky
into the unknown
somewhere
out of sight
beyond the stars
in the black night
the arrows fall
my mind wonders
of what awaits
with frozen emotions
born out of pain
***
the rules of hope
the draw of a card
who can predict
what tomorrow brings?
©AvdL 2015
chasing a dream
in a blaze of fire
an immortal soul
that walks within
like storms on the ocean
sweet rush of emotions
the height of crescendos
lifting me above
where memories remain
on my journey of life
in fragile dreams
as fervent as the flame
burning with desire
so infinite and divine
I search for answers
beneath and above
utopia of hope
*
a moment in time
as I spread my wings
and begin to fly
**
imagine you and me
eternity and beyond
as long as I can dream

Edited from original poem/2010
immersed
inside her
thoughts
chasing
reverie
as they turn
into euphony
like tortured
whispers
embedded
in her soul
wrapped
in the
secrets of
her heart
where
she seeks
solace from
her pen
telling stories
behind
the mask
and only
the moon
makes love
to her
shadow

shadows
in
black and white
bleeding
reflection
on paper
where
naked words
quietly hides
my soul
planted in
orbit on
a balcony
of cloud
eternal
emotions
like rivers
flows
devouring
my shadow
like a gem
in the sky
time melts
where
memories
recede
lightning
shatters
the darkness
as the crescent
moon lights
my soul

lamina
crescent
fading away
rush of
emotions
becoming
undone
contour in
silence
reflecting
her tears
frozen in floe
as dusk
finds it’s
fervor
keeping
allure
bleeding
into
the night
as she gently
rephrase
her memoir
of love
painting all
the stars
she took
and in
the eyes
of truth
chasing
utopia
***
she’ll find
what is
near

the wings of a swan
her broken feathers withered
on her reflection
©AvdL 2015
standing
at the edge
of my muse
adrift in
oceans of tide
lost in pain
where I
find memories
left behind
as I walk
through the
maze in
reflection
of stolen time
where
melange
of illusion
scatters
the mind
in dreams
beguiling
the truth
like echoes
of answers
erased
take me
to that
secret place
through the
darkness
as I still
go on
beneath
silence
and the tears
I weep
*
only time
©AvdL 2015
reflections
linger at
the droplets
of my wild
and stormy soul
lost in
the labyrinth
of life
guarding the
future
from my sight
beneath the
naked truth
lies a
broken heart
where wishes
lay weeping
upon foe
of jilted dreams
unmask my truth
no veiled agenda
no covert pain
until the storm
stills beneath
my sheath
come play
my clavier
note for note
unraveling
my fervor
until
zephyr quench
the burn of
fear
