Colors that see a blank*

Colors that see a blank*

Alive it came as it was once upon a time

Spring was in the air and all a fluid rhyme

Bursting from its tips, life in the trees

Opening up and setting it free

Time continued on and green came from the lumber

A little warmer in the temps, oh yes this is summer

Lazy days by river banks and longer nights too

So much life around now all was in view

But these two seasons rapidly come by fast

Seems only a memory soon, this does not last

But something is changing once again in its will

Nights losing their warmth as need a blanket for the chill

Yes colors came and the trees had them all around

It went from green, red, orange, yellow and brown

The clothes of nature gone, soon exposed

A blank canvas comes again I suppose

So this indeed was old man winter coming soon

The sun was hiding more to bring on the moon

Lowering the temps were crystallizing the air

Snow flakes in stock, from clouds everywhere

But old man winter wished his vengeance to release his cold

To bring on frozen fields with Jack Frost so bold

Hence the snow came and fell in collection

More of it knew of its own direction

Now there was no more fall, summer and spring

Harshness with burdens covered nature's things

All one seen an empty canvas with no more paint

Old man winter's color was white to taint

Bring back birth*

Bring back birth*

From the warmth that came one day

Settled down and went its way

But another turn of events came

This was a season that was not the same

It started out as a cool breeze

That nature felt it should let go with ease

For now it was preparing something ahead

The warmer temps left for the cooler instead

As the days gone by as now it is the past

You would believe that the cold would be gone and not last

But to this day the cold is still here

You have to know that spring is near

The days have more light and are now longer

Should it be that the warmth is stronger?

But heck no, water on the roof does not drip

Frozen icicles and the ground frigid, cold has its grip

So I make a statement to Mother Nature to see

That all of that death in the winter has to let go and let it be

Please open up softly and give rebirth to what you will bring

Say bye of what is bothering you and melt to bring on spring

Nature understands*

Nature understands*

To awaken this morning under gloom of sky

What is conditioned, the dark spot of thine eye

Feeling of such misery to not be content

The heart seems lost and happiness is spent

But in essence it has nothing to do with Universal whole

Only to turn this around and see within the Soul*

For then a reason is seen and one has let go

Nature is moving forward in doing what it knows

If you understand this nature then you will see

Not everyday will be sunny, there must be cloudy days and let them be

Symphony of winter*

Symphony of winter*

A cloud is shivering, a frozen sound

Look in the heavens in what is coming down

See it blow so gentle and free

A state of happiness, a rhapsody

Going to and fro, destination unknown

Silent music in the wind, lightly a song

It gives itself up for heaven's sake

The dance of togetherness, many a snowflake

Cold is not at home*

Cold is not at home*

Oh raven, oh raven

What is that to which you are craven

Seeing the winter with its cold arctic air

The winds they doth blow

Frozen all round, only grows

No escape from here to there

A mask to hide from

But cannot be done

Lest ye not be well aware

So go out, seek and find

To be in another state of mind

And hope of comfort comes in your lair

Come around to go around*

Come around to go around*

The wind blew the dust around

Coming right behind it without a sound

The dust was taken by surprise

There was no time to open its eyes

It was a warning of things to come

If only the dust had legs to run

Late this was as anew comes the season

Mother Nature knew of its reason

A winter was fast approaching with its chill

The dust knew now that it was to remain still

For a blanket to lay upon it with snow

Time was nearing here to finally let go

So it stayed dorment and gave up as it tried

Flurries swirled around it this time not to arise

Death was to be only a moment then would pass

Winter is in the cycle not to last

As one day will come and the warmth shall be felt

All that surrounded the dust will finally melt

Do not ever fight this manner or even fret

All things shall move on when it is perfectly set

To look at this we note that things are temporary you see

Somethings that become a bond as other things are freed

Beginnings may be a struggle to reach the end

But always remember in a cycle the end begins again

The naked blanket*

The naked blanket*

There is a change coming, feel it in the air

The picture is dying out, you see it everywhere

Even though the beauty, temporarily was here

Now it has come to let go, nothing in nature interferes

The wind is colder and it blows all around

It makes the leaves do a dance in the surround

There still is a bit of life that slowly continues on

But it just knows that soon it will be gone

The trees show their nakedness as it is their truth

They have to live within and feed off their roots

Ominous to be, that a winter will be here soon

To make this emptiness, a blank canvas and more room

Dom*Colucci 2014

"May" I be warm?*

"May" I be warm?*

I await throughout winter as it was long

To enjoy the warmth and hear birds sing a song

But there are clouds in the sky that are dismal gray

Can anyone tell me that this is May?

The only hint I guess is pollen from the trees

What a way to enjoy spring as I sneeze

The beauty is the rose*

The beauty is the rose*

There is a bite in the air, silence has come

For something has ended a cycle and it is done

Love that was here is now withering away

The lushness that it was, can no longer stay

So the color starts to fade from a red to brown

The petals start to pull back and lay to the ground

Such anguish to see in this as it departs

Clenched by the coldness and hurt in its heart

But though it has to move on to make new again

So the beauty that it once was comes back to begin

Though it may not be the same as I suppose

But another will come along, that beauty is the rose

"There is no place like home"

"There is no place like home"

Sweet and sugar coated

Frost to bite

A blank canvas that is covered one sees in the light

Cold as can be, shivering to the bone

But we bundle up within and say

"There is no place like home"

Spring of love, winter so cold*

Spring of love, winter so cold*

Just as the spring in our lives was coming to be

It was love that enter our hearts we could see

As time drifted into the next season along

We heard within ourselves such a beautiful song

But now a turn has come and the heart feels stained

Our love seems to be broken, in pieces it remains

A door has been closed, this is hard to believe as it could

The moment now gone, it is gone for good

My heart has learned that love is not to flirt

But in knowing thyself and not to get hurt

So to live with the pain in silence to let it unfold

Trust in making it by, for what comes up is the winter so cold

Dom*Colucci 2013

Kiss the "two"lips of May*

Kiss the "two"lips of May*

Letting go is always best especially in the fall

It is what is called expanding, for love it is all

Departure it may seem to be a little tough

It sort of weakens the heart in making love so rough

But if it is love, so it shall come back one day

From the time it let go, through winter

And to return to kiss the "tu'lips of May

Dom*Colucci 2013

Room to journey on*

Room to journey on*

Wispy wind blows from the south

Blustery and bold cometh this way

A push harder and harder in its last trimester

One has released as a dance begins 

It lays itself down neatly on all in the surround

Greater than I how gentle this is

The last snowflake I see 

Lay in grace on the path in front of me*

Hear it? It's spring*

Hear it? It's spring*

The sun in the morning, higher as such

Comes from the east to be out so much

A feeling once again, a breather in the air

Spring is here and goodbye to winter there

Exploding with growth, buds popping open to arise

Reaching their abundance, climbing to the skies

Yes a masterpiece being made that is all around

Nice how all is manifested without a sound

Dom*Colucci 2013

Love will always grow*

Love will always grow*

Seems we met together one day in spring

That we both had this love that our hearts do bring

We got deeper involved when summer came through

To have a great relationship, enjoying it too

But a turn has been taken in the fall as it comes

Love has no bonds for it is freedom to be one

We have to let go as autumn comes near

As in true love, we have to detach and grow from here

For to hold onto to each other, the winter puts us in a bind

And to not grow when spring comes we must leave this behind

We will always be together, unconditionally we do see

Love will always grow and always be free

For it's spring again*

For it's spring again*


Calm is this day as it shall bring
For it is Love of life and soon to be spring
To feel the warm breezes and the air so clean
Winter's purity and lushness of summer, it's in between
To arise new growth, paint color so clear
Days get longer with daylight so near 
Just a few more swipes in the wind
And robins come home, for it is spring again


Dom*Colucci 2012

Pure is Love*

Pure is Love*


Love so gentle and so sweet and pure
Making one's heart open, that is for sure
Just like a blanket of fresh winter's snow
Clear, clean and fresh from that is what I know
Peace in stillness with all its Love comes from above
Freedom as well like an olive branch in a white turtle dove


Dom*Colucci 2012

Spring into my heart*

Spring into my heart*


Spring is coming, I feel it in my bones
I know I feel a partner and not to be alone
The warmth I have comes in my heart
I will be leaving this chill as the winter I do part
For it is my Lover that will warm this chill
And make Love in my heart so perfectly still


Dom*Colucci 2011 

Amazing twist in heart*

Amazing twist in heart*

Why Love? Why? Are you house bound?

You sit here in such despair without a sound

Let me enter your heart and bring you somewhere

A place we can be free and happy there

Let me grab you by the hand and let us leave

I will take you and your heart, you will see and not believe

Dom*Colucci 2011

Doves together in Love*

Doves together in Love*


You are of brilliant sunshine on a cold winter's day
The stream of your beaming heart with its golden rays
Warming me ever so closer to be
Loving you more to have you next to me
Darling, it is you that has given me this day of Love
Connecting both our Souls like two turtle doves
