There is one thing
And another.
Grey twigs stand upright
At ends of limbs.
They decorate the also-grey sky
As a foreground reminder:
No leaves grace these
Woodland tendrils.
It is as if they are unclothed,
Vulnerable and exposed

A shaft of sunbeam awakens me at dawn.
My slumber has been of one dead for a thousand years:
Deadened by thoughts of culpability and then,
Sudden innocence.
Awe and wonder overtake the moment
As the light settles in.
But fear raises expectations of loss and
Grandeur — neither of which [...]
The electrified wind controller
Makes unusual sounds.
Nothing like the sax that came before.
Loud!
Amplified to ensure that
My brain and the next will not
Forget this sound!
Now, the piano, too, joins in with the
Electrified sound: funky electric piano-
Zany-funkified-twisted sounds envelope

Sultry: you enmesh the fluid line
With the voicings unabashed.
Combined: they melt the walls
Around my heart that — times before –
I thought were permanent and solid.
Now, open to the melodious flux,
Ears and eyes drink in the sweet
Honey of wafting sounds and

I will not tap my feet.
Though the rhythms and melodies you play
Conger up kicking off shoes and
Dancing barefoot in the grass,
I will not tap my feet.
Though my heart beats faster at the
Melodic [...]
Yes. It really happened. Snow (over 6 inches) in the Poconos in October. Just in time for Halloween. Spooky, huh?
May you be cozy and warm.

Brain wanted to continue, but heart and flesh
Are giving out.
Only for today, tendons are tired and
Head is hanging.
No more ’til tomorrow.

Invited by you,
I open the doorway to my imagination
And find there a vast, undiscovered country
Filled with fun balloons, open-hearted tigers,
Lovely, kind-hearted gazelles,
Grown up children and
Playful adults.
Time to explore!

muse and music for the present moment
I look for ways to re-invigorate our human experience of life. I want us to drink up every moment with enlivening spontaneity. One of the ways I do this is with improvisation -- especially improvised music. With voice, guitar, percussion, piano (keyboards) and friends, I develop "in the moment" creations. I also play classical and pop music for the vast joy it brings to know the composers and songwriters of the past and present through their music.
