I cannot publish a book of poetry without
continuing to thank my mentor, Fred Cogswell;
the first person to publish a book of my poetry A Split In The Water

Through the foggy lens
Of an early morning haunting,
The ghosts of summer,
Windblown voices
And hazy dreams
Still linger

Ash; to ember; to flame.
I listen to the wind:
Silence; to whispers; to voices.

In the blue shadows
Of this early morning haunting,
Haunted.

The fading sun on the sand dissolves
Into moon-drops on the water.
Waves sparkle and dance with diamonds.
Memories ebb and flow.

You and I
Casually playing with time and tide
As if they could never change;
As if we would never change.
When we walked our beach of dreams,
