Steve Hancock Poems

Some might say eccentric
Strumming potential strings
Searching for pure inspiration
The songs the crooner sings
...

The ebony canvas of midnight
Spangled with intricate stars
Entice my gaze to wonder
Could there be such as life on Mars
...

Fabricated steel of orange vermilion
Spanning the Golden gate Strait
A milieu backdropp of San Francisco
Of Marin headlands ornate
...

Come Mortals
Mind venture with me
To the land
Of the living mortuary
...

Oceanic ballerina
May liberty stay yours
As I watch in awe and wonder
From these cold and tethered shores
...

Rainbow touched butterflies
A sun kissed saffron rose
The ritual dance of snowflakes
The autumn leafy blows
...

Sacred horn of unicorn
Enchanted forest of old
Oh gypsy king such woe you bring
With prophecy foretold
...

Curvaceous as voluptuous woman
Sawn cedar and rosewood grand
Contours of classic dreadnought
Crafted by Luthiers hand
...

A stalagmite soaring protrusion
Such grandeur in chaos she keeps
Woven with threads of insomnia
The city they say never sleeps
...

The essence of summers refuge
Cool shade and whispering sough
The essence of mornings dawn chorus
Resounding from copious bough
...
