new day is dawning coffee bites my tongue spring bursting forth song remains undone dancing in the darkness old song drew to a close dream a couple dreams freshened in repose awaken to the notes song of you through we richness of the harmony rhythm of the melody alone, i sought a song together, we create symphony bright and grand spread to all the land

Judge Smails circa 1980 its easy to grin when your ship comes in and...you've got the stock market beat but the man who's worth while is the man who can smile when his shorts aren't to tight in the seat |

Images by Tyrone Green Dark and lonely on a summer's night. Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord. Watchdog barking. Do he bite? Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord. Slip in his window. Break his neck. Then his house I start to wreck. Got no reason. What the heck? Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord. C-I-L my land lord!

Look to the light that shines from your heart Open your view to the lessons of all Rise to your feet, slowly stand tall Wake to the beat of the creation of art Fire is kindled, heat fills the space Light of the stars, shines from your heart New life enlivens, all and one taking part Child is born, from a scream to embrace Day is filled with a newness when we start Listen in quiet, from deep, hear the call In time we will sprint, but now, only crawl Blending together, no longer apart |

She scurried into the chill of darkness Comforted by the ravaging thoughts Solitude was safer than reaching out Chilling disturbance ran down her back Hints of light danced in the periphery Memories of so very long ago Now faded and foggy and dim Ancient faith left her nothing to grieve Knowing was beyond her furthest reach Clarity, the glimmering of a drop of dew Only one choice left for this lost heart Find a corner to embrace death quietly But grace has a way of synchronicity Waits 'til the darkest of instants The universe has learned time and again Daughter made in the image of all Immeasurable ages of experience Held in the heart of a child Pain is a necessary teacher Creation comes only at that cost |

In a moment of stillness All cares melt away In this moment of choice All worries left behind In this instant of clarity Your life begins anew With the breath you breathe in We are all refreshed And in the stillness A distant song moves in That song from the All I hear the song, too And then in your mind's heart The new dance is given a start With a movement of a foot In this perfect moment of stillness And we breathe in as one And we out as two And we are joined In this instant Me and you And you and you, too May I have this dance? |

child within throws a tantrum wise man thinks he knows all strength of the rock in stillness remember that fear builds a wall knowing that comes from the ages peace as the waves kiss the shore breathing out words of the muses forgetting to open heart's door thoughts of the angels pervade life's lessons seek to persuade distractions of mind, they disuade as memories of love start to fade then from the distance, she comes wisdom in the words of a friend remember to LIVE this new life love begins where knowledge finds end rising anew from the ashes phoenix reborn yet this new day flight of the angel returning sing, dance, rejoice, and play |

tulips in the meadow break of dawning day joyful moments flow carefree children play likewise love is born gift from deeper place nourished by the sun end forever chase dance of trees and wind strengthened by the years river rushes on filled by nights of tears time has made us whole ready to share a life many lessons taught wake to end the strife eagle builds a nest in the highest peak readied for the test no time for the meek flight of faith begins with a choice to leap intent planted whole love is what we reap |

Clouds fade away from yesterday Bold sun warms this new morn Storms of the past held at bay Fear that was once, newly shorn Hope born as birds sing bright Feel the warm touch of a friend My butterfly finds her new flight As a chapter comes to an end Colorful light from your heart Finds a way to shine through me New friends make a new start Smiling and skipping with glee |

Before I ask y'all, please understand, Even as I come from way down South, My heart is more loquacious than my mouth, Yearning like a wave for your smooth sand. Very few down here will show their hand, Aching like a riverbed for rain, Lying like a platitude in pain, Each chili inside, outside baked beans bland. Now here down South it ain't right to demand The things you're dying for, but you real fine, In a voice polite as preachers set to dine, Nicely say, "Mind if I trouble you, Ma'am," - Easy like - "to be my Valentine?" |

Butterflies and bees Fly in the breeze Rainbows of candy Sweet eyes behold Smile of a child Innocence untold Beauty and wonder In all that she sees Follow a squirrel Lost in the trees Never a thought Of burdens of old Love ever flowing Never withholding Singing a song Of A B C's Find a four-leaf clover Wish upon the sun Play a round of hopscotch Day has just begun Call me by name We'll play in the sand Take hold of my hand We'll play a new game Joys of our youth Take my hand today Under the broad trees Fly amongst the bees Joys of youth Available to all Close your eyes Breathe in deep Remember the place We visit in sleep Over the hill Past the swings Around the next bend Remember... And believe |

Coffee and tea Your place and mine Sing, dance, and play Hope that you'll stay Romance and hot love Stroll or stand still Walk, dance, and pray Love renewed today Cream and sugar for you Black and hot for me Enjoying another cup Starting perfectly Started with a glance Moved to warm romance Last night's perfect dance Two hearts took a chance Birds are smiling, too Steal a glace from you Flowers bow with grace When they see your face Another perfect day Love and dance and play Connected to your heart New souls, perfect start |

Story began many years ago Child of my heart is weeping Thunder keeps my mind from sleeping Flood of memories, to and fro Facing ghosts asleep so long Wall of fear we built so tall Wonder how we sleep at all Dancing in this deep, dark throng Looked into the eyes of the mirror My face aglow with the rising tide Today is the day I no longer hide Today is the day I walk in the dark Burdens too heavy for a child to bear Secrets hidden where I dare not look Underneath joyful smiles they took Darkness floods, makes still the air Time comes for the choice to leap Into a fog that engulfs the soul Believing fully, remade whole Jump out of the endless sleep Looked into the eyes of the mirror My face aglow with the rising tide Today is the day I no longer hide Today is the day I walk in the light Joy beyond my wildest dreams Divinity sought, Nirvana seen Pure white light, new life’s sheen Tea and honey, flowing streams Healing all, but first heal me Jubilant dance, heavenly scream Breathing light, tasting gleam Peaceful calm of letting be Looked into the mirror of your eyes Our faces aglow, begin the wild ride Today is the day we no longer hide Today is the day we live in the light

Arrows of love Pierce my soul Flaming heat Make us whole Molded in a moment Floating on a cloud Gift of creation Shout out loud Ecstatic bliss Waves of you and me Allness, oneness, joined Close your eyes and see Giggle and dance Alive in adoration Passing a glance Time running short I feel your gaze Cutting ever deep Mixing of our bodies Clothed in holy sleep Instant of perfection Just around the bend You feel it, dont' you? Uniting, a life to spend

Having broken down the walls I see the trueness of you In the reflection of me Light of the soul, fresh hue I am a cool breeze of hope You, a soothing beam of love The path is clearly marked Walking together, new dove We step into the warmth Infinite healing embrace Reaching out to you I touch my own face The canyon of separation Now empty of space Time has no meaning End of suffering's chase Believe in the power Willing to bear the pain Universal shifts Peace, love, nirvana... remain

barefoot in the grass the dew cools your feet standing feeling the light of this early new day a sound from the distance muffled and subtle stillness standing in quiet waiting for the sound's return breathing deeply pulling in the fragrant bouquet open fresh eyes overwhelmed by the glory sunrise at it's wondrous peak tints and hues light the blooms smelling the flowers of summer wild and abundant meadow breathing even more deeply remembering the last time the warmth unwelcome at first surprised by it's return the sound same as before much closer now footfalls a strain to continue to stand still, eyes closed finding strength within but the lovely anxiety is unnerving burning moistness returns fueled by the memories the touch electrifying fingers to wet lips questions is it really him? or a return of the dream open heart leaps eyes fall on his face familiar yet brand new memories of ancient bliss newness dawning this new day precious morning of the heart |

Deepening vessel Time rushes on Life in the flow Take another breath How may I serve The Creator of all? What might I do To express my joy? Sing a new song Praise all there is One in perfection Beauty within But still there are times When anger flares out Forgetting my nature Connected to One I judge when I'm judged Feel fear when afraid Offended by children Alone in the haze Hardships befall All who would grow And so I am grateful Even when small Take me and keep me Mold me some more Gilded and forged Flames cure us all To walk is to live To live, to show love Thankful for lessons Breath of God above |

mystic awareness, mind falls fallen mysteries, silent halls hallowed beacons, wonder calls wandering angels, falling walls take me to the deepest place as one, we feel divine embrace ending sorrows, love erase passion's fire, making chase heights of waning perfect pain flooding tempest, piercing rain surrender all, sweet bliss attain engulfing fire, dawning domain |

Met you in a dream The dream become real You taught me to fly I taught you to feel Wake to the truth Be the cool winter breeze Rise from the fear Find the child who sees We'll walk for a time And time will fall away Come closer, my lover I'm asking you to stay Let's build some new castles Of sands by the ebbing tide Keep me in your heart Feel me deep inside Today is the beginning Of all that is to come Let's walk the beach together Beneath the rising sun Copyright 2006 Steve Robison www.livingthepoem.com

Fog's just lifting, throw off your bow line, throw off your stern... Blow your air horn and throw a wave to the light house keeper's kid on Thatcher Island. Guys are busy, you're in charge. Ya know what? You're a sword boat captain. Can't be good unless you love it. |
