Barbara Elizabeth Mercer Poems

Shined in on me tonight
A phosphorescent presence loomed
Bathed me in my bed tonight
Filled my lighthouse in the sky
...

Haiku

Fast flight of Blue Jays
Descending on autumn's trees
...

Existing on the inside of myths
Inside looking outward
Inward - backward - forward
Gears oiled - presuming truths
...

Piano jazzing
Keys twinkling
Fingers flying
fleeting feeling
...

The saving grace
Of metaphor
Allowing free intepretation
To the reader's experience

The Best Poem Of Barbara Elizabeth Mercer

February Moon - Storm Moon - Hunger Moon - Snow Moon

Shined in on me tonight
A phosphorescent presence loomed
Bathed me in my bed tonight
Filled my lighthouse in the sky
With brightness of your eyes
Awoke me with soft caress
Whispering words of love that bless
Out of my dreaming
You appeared
Replaced the loneliness
I had feared
Now with tender warmth
You enfold me in embrace
As the dawn is breaking in my heart
The moon slips silently into space
And you assure me
We will never part
