jane heart Poems

you know it burns the very light out of you
steals the show
makes away time seem pointless
and conversations nothing but
...

Swashes of bold grain wake me
As I drive.
The plains are mesmerizing.
A greenish and grateful wellspring picks
...

A search for oblongs
will dispel
the fractal splay of hands and shoots.
A search for manatee
...

Finally a wage for our trade in open arms,
wishes and fine, handsome eternities.
A book and then God!
A smile then a plush, revealing nod to
...

this is where we stand, my love
this is the grass re-trod,
this the lambs frisking trail
seedy beneath gums.
...

Where were you when the wind broke stems and hurled stuff
like no other wind?
Were you standing against the still cliff?
Hiding blind...mixed up, lost?
...

Haunting still my flavour
and repose -
a remembered story of the shackle
and rose.
...

Three walls tower between us
like lead.
I cannot see you...it's as if you were dead.
Wave to me and the breeze might take it,
...

all fine and decidedly sunny near the secret dream.
Taken to extreme lengths and pulverized into smoke -
this dream.
refracting lenses of livid light-
...

this is what I give you -
the sweet fade of faces remembered,
the called fragments of a name once loved,
the peaches and plums we hauled together
...
