New Poems

Sea Hunger

From within, the cabin porthole

Presents a view of Rodriguez Key

Floating greyly beyond the reef

Palm Fronds laughing at the pink-tongued sky.

And I within mock Dunsinane,

Look down at my idle hands and ache.


Heaven on Earth

Earth look up, with laughter

In your eyes,

The Son of God stepped down,

And in our midst he lives;

He came to save, redeem us all-

The God of Mercy answered our call.

But Earth, beware, though Christ

May bless, to bring us

Joy, Eternal Life.

His life He’ll give.

So Earth look down, let teardrops

Fill your eyes,

The Son of Man stepped down,

And now all dead He lives.
