Just a fun little poem on aging 10-2016
Red sun in the morning rolling up the side of earth. The sky turned pink, as a ball of fire showed it’s strength,
Walking on the beach of long ago, the constant roll of the gulf, it’s sound, like a lullaby.
To open and risk hurt... Or stay closed but Never really live. Pain can reveal... A connection to
On a walk this morning, the rocky cliffs that reach the blue-green sea, talk of strength today.
Just a small part of me wants strife to go away, to return to a kinder time. Am I just losing courage? Life is draining me,
The dance of fear, Of not being enough, Stops and starts. The unknown, an Uncharted sea,
On this New Year’s Eve Direction lost Drifting like blowing snow To and fro. A freeze comes
The flesh withers as we age But our inner spirit Remains the same. And when the body dies The spirit breaks free
I heard past generations In my son’s voice, I saw his life fly Into another dimension, A place, I can only imagine.
Walking down the dirt path, Sounds drift on the air, Birds chirping, leaves Rustling, dogs barking. Interconnection of life
Firefly shine your light, Brighten my life, Lead the way, through The meadows, in my mind. Firefly, float so high,
Holiday cheer and laughter, Multicolored lights blink faster, Music of love and good will, Grace the air like snowflakes. Tis the season to be compassionate…
The chimes outside the pottery studio ring like a temple bell, calling the faithful to honor,
Last night I dreamt that I floated above the clouds, above the earth and my heart
The white snow, thin Like sand, over The fields, blowing Across the road. My car rambles
