MAYPORT ONE
Mayport!
Clouds laying low,
grey, thick, layered cream
far out on the ocean scene;
fat roll before the jagged top,
a bear’s head amid cloud rubble
changed to dog then disappeared,
as the sun looked on and spread its sight,
split the scene, dissolved the cream, removed the night. 5/21/2012
MAYPORT TWO
Mayport!
my lover stood by the sea.
just her the sea and me;
there she sang her lover’s song. 5/21/2012

I would hope that anyone who reads my poetry understands that I write what comes to my mind and it doesn't mean I'm the reality of the words. I mean that just because I write about alcoholism does not mean I am the character in the poems. I write about those I've known and those I know and a very wide grouping that is of sinners and saints, those who know who and where they are going and those who are completely lost. I am empathic. I write in the first person because I feel the reality of what I am writing about. Like Dean Martin pretending to be drunk while performing I am not what it may seem. Just a thought as I know some out there who read what I write see the words and not the art or the understanding of the problem I am commenting on, nor do they understand that the comment is for the purpose of illustration and not my own personal reality.
