Hesitation in Gold- Michael Erickson
Each day upon this shining scene, I see you staring across each green living thing. Fixed by your stare I stand upon a mountainside, Wind tossing clouds to and froe.

For now, … Continue reading Shifting Amber- Michael Erickson
Wanderer-Michael Erickson
I'll n're forget your wandering heart, Ambivalent to staying still. I'd find you standing upon the threshold, Bare skin warming to the rising sun's glow. You'd look upon the horizon, As one who'd lost a great love. And I stood by watching you go, As a poplar tree watches a stream flow. Now my room … Continue reading Wanderer-Michael Erickson
