Joan's Pen

The pen of Joan
traces the distracted stars
circling the echoes
of rose rock brick.

Tracing the distracted stars
dancing about the moon of claiming
as the moon's children
paint shadows in the courtyard.

And echoes circle the courtyard,
foreign radios in fractured time.
She swims in shallow water
under deep blue dream scape.

Rose rock bricks
count out their subtle pattern.
She calls in the moon children.
She sends out the southern wind.

John's Pen

From the pen of John
in the late evening:
Stars circle the floor
moonshadow traces the sky.

In the late evening
cars bank on wildflowers,
cats track moon shadows.
John counts the horses.

Stars circle the floor.
Fingers trace the labyrinth
leading between the letters
of the secret name.

Moonshadow traces the sky.
The sky is open late.
New dreams appear nightly
from the pen of John.
