Promontory

it juts on the lake

a shark pushing boundaries

with us on its back

Waves

 

they swell and splash along the pebbly beach

keep unfurling, relentless, rhythmic

whispers from a distant ocean

my love by my side, his eyes chartreuse

his touch, warm cordial through the plague

his lips ... ah smooth intense wine

we hear music in the rush of waves

soak up the scent of aquamarine mist 

hold eternity in the moment 

Romance at Dusk

They snuggle closer

under the warm sheets of dusk

love blooming on ice

 

Humber Bay Arch

arch rises past trees

artful steel jostles with

sun-speckled buildings

 

Twilight

twilight's muted tones

sad, mournful, evanescent

brushed with sentient rose

 

Bridge

We bridge stone bearings

step from discord towards growth

water under us

 

Lake, Skyline and Mound

placid, the lake flows

between skyline and stone mound

waves to nodding tree

 

Light

Light hugs the cold stones

turns grey to gold, brightens up

tangled reflections

 

Ducks on ice

not on sunny side

perched on winter's glacial patch

the clan's warmth enough

 

Golden Dusk

 

In the glow of love

we fly, soaked in gilded joy

wonder on our wings

A Couple of Trees

natural bonding

majestic flirts with graceful 

resonance mutual

 

Winter of Extremes

winter of extremes

harsh to soft, ice to water

cloudy to sunny

 

Steam Fog on Lake Ontario

warmth brushed with cold turns

into rolling steam, magic

on moving water

 

Commemorative Bench

many will sit here

remembering loved ones gone

dreaming they're present

 

Man and Trees

Tall, tough, they dwarf man

improve air, preserve soil, boost

wild life, nourish us

 

Snowed Bikes

Snowed bikes believe

they and the grass will move soon

they shouldn't trust winter

 

Dancing dots

joy dots our vision

till we focus on clearer

deeper perspective 

 

Lake watch

far out in the clouds

he searches, then feeds the ducks

captures them in shots

 

Reflections

reflections at dusk

out on the lake, lightening

our inner darkness 

 

Snow Covered Trees

flimsy, feathery

sprinkled with white, they stretch up

kiss the lake and sky
