Red Sun Fountains

 video

 a golden sunrise in the morning
we did not expect
streaming starlight at the dawning
with celestial effect

mesmerizing and surprising
rays of light expand
atmospheric beauty ties in
to where we stand

by the ocean near the mountains
here on Planet B
from the twilight red Sun fountains
fall on you and me-

an onshore breeze, cooling, pleases
while beginning to explore
a valley lush which nearby teases
'there is something more'-

beneath the trees with rustling leaves
following a stream
whose sunlit dappled water weaves
through and in between

water meadows with the yellows
of flowers as in spring
feeling cooler, something mellows,
in the paradise we're in-

in the morning, new day dawning
4 light years from the Earth
new sensations without warning
feel like a new birth

by the ocean near the mountains
here on Planet B
where from twilight red Sun fountains
fall on you and me...

Reverie

 video

 cherry blossoms fill the window
the morning sun reflects
from the houses on the mountain -
someone there expects

a golden sunrise in the heavens
a springtime reverie -
cherry blossoms in the window
are what I can see

and the green of leaves emerging
in a nearby tree
reaching skyward without urging -
something else to see

up above the clouds are floating
from over sea to shore -
cherry blossoms in the window,
I couldn't ask for more...
