Become One
The sky lays down on the lake.
It doesn't make a splash.
The action seems like happenstance,
but it is guided by the sun.
The area it covers turns
bright blue with patches of white.
Branches poke through the clouds.
Ducks and geese swim on the fluff.
The surrounding water sparkles.
This is the beauty that is created
when two elements we thought
could never come together
become one.

I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.
