Happy the Man  ( 1977 )

 titres : starborne, stumpy meets the firecracker in stencil forest,
             upon the rainbow, Mr. mirror's reflection on reams,
             carousel, knee bitten nymphs in limbo,
             on time as a helix of precious laughs,
             hidden moods, new york dream's suite.

Crafty hands   ( 1978 )

 titres : service with a smile, morning sun,
             ibby it is, steaming pipes,
             wind up doll day wind, open book,
             I forgot to push it, the moon I sing.

Better late...      ( 1979 )

 titres : eye of the storm, the falcon,
             at the edge of this thought,
             while chrome yellow shine,
             who's in charge here?, shadow shaping,
             run into the ground, footwork, labyrinth,
             such a warm breeze.

Beginnings     ( 1990 )

 titres : leave that kitten alone armone,
             passion's passing,
             don't look to the running sun,
             gretchen's garden, partly the state,
             broken waves, portrait of a waterfall.

live      ( 1997 )

 titres : service with a smile, starborne,
             open book, hidden moods, morning sun,
             I forgot to push it, Ibby it is,
             nossuri (the moon, I sing),
             I carve the chariot on the carousel,
             stealing pipes, knee bitten nymphs in limbo,
             Mr. Mirror's reflection on dreams.

Death's crown    ( 1999 )

 titres : death's crown, New York dream's suite,
             Merlin of the high places.

The muse awakens  ( 2004 )

 titres : contemporary insanity,
             the muse awakes,
             stepping through time,
             maui sunset,
             lunch at the psychedelicatessen,
             slipstream, barking spiders, adrift,
             shadowlites, kindred spirits,
             il quinto mare.
